Milling Machine Techniques


Does anybody have any milling machine techniques that are helpful for going around curbs and manholes? Currently, we are jack-hammering the extra asphault that the machine can't get to, as well as where the machine starts and stops because it is not a perfect vertical drop. It seems like a machine that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars should be able to do the complete job effortlessly.

We use a wirtgen 500 to cut end joints and around manholes where the big machine can't get.
