which all controls shall be adjusted to the proper settings and then operated. Any failure
(see 4.5.2.2.1) shall constitute failure of this test.
4.5.2.4 Temperature. The tamper shall be operated at maximum governed engine speed for
a period of not less than eight hours of compacting work (including downtime for normal
