intervals.
Hydraulic hoses must be changed immediately if:
•damage to the outer surface down to the lining
(e.g. chafings, cuts, cracks)
•Do not mix up hoses by mistake.
•damage or deformation of the fitting, which
impairs the function and strength of the hose/
hose connection.
Only genuine BOMAG hydraulic hoses ensure that the
correct type of hose (pressure range) is used at the
right place.
Working on the engine
Shut the engine down before opening the engine
compartment hood.
Drain the engine oil at operating temperature - danger
of scalding!
Wipe o spilled oil, catch running out oil and dispose
of environmentally.
Store used filters and other oily materials in a
separate, specially marked container and dispose of
environmentally.
Do not leave any tools or other objects, which could
cause damage, in the engine compartment.
Idle speed and full load speed must not be changed,
since this would have a negative eect on the exhaust
gas values and cause damage to engine and drive.
Turbo chargers work with high speeds and high
temperatures. Keep hands, tools and materials away
from the intake and outlet openings of the turbo charger
and do not touch any hot surfaces. Check and replace
the coolant only when the engine is cold.
•embrittlement of the outer layer (development
of cracks in the hose material)
•deformation under pressurized and
depressurized condition, which are not in
accordance with the normal shape of the
hydraulic hose
•deformation in bends, e.g, squeezes, kinks, layer
separation, formation of blisters
•leakages.
•non-observance of the installation requirements
•separation of the hydraulic hose from the fitting
•corrosion of the fitting, which impairs the
function and the strength.

Cold Weather Starting BW177D/DH/PDH-50
The BW177D/DH/PDH-50 is equipped with a automatic
cold weather assist starting system. This consisted of
a glow plug attached to the engine. When the key is
turned to the I position during cold weather the glow
plug lamp will continue to be illuminated after the
majority of the other lamps have turned o. WAIT until
the grid heater lamp turns o before attempting to start
the engine. The amount of time for the grid heater
lamp to turn o is dependent on the temperature at
the sensor.
Perform the starting process
for maximum 20 seconds without
interruption and pause for a minute
between starting attempts.

OPERATION
Starting with jump wires
Fig. 40
A wrong connection will cause severe
damage in the electric system.
•Bridge the machine only with a 12 Volt auxiliary
battery.
•When jump starting with an external battery
connect both plus poles first.
•Then connect the ground cable first to the minus
pole of the current supplying auxiliary battery
and then to engine or chassis ground, as far away
from the battery as possible (Fig. 40).
Driving the machine
Danger of accident!
Wet and loose soils considerably reduce
the ground adhesion of the machine on
inclinations and slopes.
Soil conditions and weather inuences
impair the gradability of the machine.
Do not drive up and down inclinations
exceeding the maximum gradability of
the machine (see technical data).
Do not drive without wearing your seat
belt.
Always give way to loaded transport
vehicles! Before starting to drive make
sure that the drive range is absolutely
safe.
Always keep the cabin door closed
while driving with the machine. With
the door opened and the machine fully
articulated extreme oscillations of the
machine may damage the door.
•Start as described under “Starting the engine”.
•Once the engine is running switch on a powerful
consumer (working light, etc.).
If no powerful consumer is switched
on voltage peaks may occur when
separating the connecting cables
between the batteries, which could
damage electrical components.
•After starting disconnect the negative poles
(ground cable) first and the positive poles after.
•Switch off the consumer

When servicing the machine pay careful attention to
all applicable safety instructions.
Thorough maintenance of the machine ensures
maximum reliability and prolongs the lifetime of
important components. The necessary effort can
by no means be compared with the problems and
malfunctions that could occur if this is not observed.
The terms left/right are always related to travel direction
forward.
•Clean machine and engine thoroughly before
starting maintenance work.
•For maintenance work park the machine on level
ground.
•Maintenance work must generally be carried out
with the engine shut down.
•Depressurize hydraulic lines before working on
them.
•Disconnect the battery and cover it with
insulation material before starting to work on
electrical components.
•Always attach the articulation lock (transport
lock) before starting to work in the articulation
area of the machine.
Environment
•Do not draw off fuel from near the bottom of the
fuel drum.
•Fuel left in the fuel drum is not suitable for the
engine and should only be used for cleaning
puposes.
Notes on the engine performance
Combustion air and fuel injection rates of the diesel
engine have been carefully adjusted and determine
the engine’s per formance and temperature level as well
as the quality of the exhaust gas. If your machine has
to operate permanently in “thin air” (at high altitudes)
and with full power, you should consult the after sales
service of BOMAG or the service department of the
engine manufacturer.
Notes on the hydraulic system
During maintenance work in the hydraulic system
cleanliness is of utmost importance. Make sure that
no dirt or other impurities can enter into the system.
Small particles can ute valves, cause pumps to seize
and block restrictors and pilot bores, thereby causing
costly repairs.
•If during the daily oil level check the oil level is
found to have dropped, check all lines, hoses and
components for leakages.
•Seal external leaks immediately. If necessary
inform the responsible service department.
Catch running out oils, coolant and fuel and do not let
them seep into the ground or into the sewage system.
Dispose of oils, coolant and fuels environmentally.
Notes on the fuel system
The lifetime of the diesel engine is decisively depending
on the cleanliness of the fuel.
•Keep the engine free of dirt and water as this
could damage the injection elements of the
egine.
•Zinc lined drums are not suitable for storing fuel.
•The fuel drum should rest for a longer period of
time before drawing off fuel.
•Do not let the suction hose disturb the sludge on
the bottom of the drum.
4-2012
•Do not store drums with hydraulic oil outside, or
at least keep them under a cover. During weather
changes water may penetrate through the
bunghole.
•Always fill the hydraulic system using the filling
and filtering unit (BOMAG part-no. 007 610 01).
This unit is equipped with a fine filter, which
filters the hydraulic oil and prolongs the lifetime
of the system filter.
•Clean fittings, filler caps and their immediate
surrounding area before removing them, so that
no dirt can fall in.
•Do not leave the tank opening unnecessarily
open, cover it so that no dirt can fall in.

On water cooled engines the preparation and
monitoring of the coolant is of utmost importance, as
otherwise engine failures caused by corrosion, caviation
and freezing may occur.
The coolant is a mixture of water and a cooling system
protection agent.
The cooling system must be permanently monitored.
Apart from the coolant level inspection this includes
also the inspection of the concentration of cooling
system protection agent.
The concentration of the cooling system protection
agent can be checked with commercially available test
instruments (glycomat).
Health hazard!
The mixing of nitride based cooling
system protectionagents with amine
based agents will cause the generation
of highly toxic nitrosamines.
Fuels and lubricants
Engine oil
Oil quality
Lubrication oils are classified according to their
performance and quality class. Oils according to other
comparable specications may be used.
The exact assignment of the approved oil qualities and
oil change intervals can be taken from the following
section “Lubrication oil change intervals”.
Consult your local service station if in doubt.
Oil viscosity
Multi-purpose oils should be generally used.
Since lubrication oil changes its viscosity with the
temperature, the ambient temperature at the operating
location of the engine is of utmost importance when
choosing the viscosity class (SAE-class) .
Environment
Cooling system protection agents must be disposed
of environmentally.

Fuels
Fuel quality
You should only use commercially available brand
diesel fuel with a sulphur content below 0.5% (5000

and ensure strict cleanliness when lling in.
ppm)
Use only winter-grade diesel fuel under low ambient
temperatures. The fuel level should always be topped
up in due time so that the fuel tank is never run dry,
as otherwise lter and injection lines need to be bled.
Cummins Inc. recommends that the cetane number
of diesel fuel be a minimum of 45 for engines that are
expected to operate at temperatures below 0°C [32°F]
and a minimum of 42 for engines that are operated at
temperatures above 0°C [32°F].
Using diesel fuel with lower than recommended
cetane number can cause hard starting, instability,
and excessive white smoke. To maintain satisfactory
operation at low ambient temperatures, it is important
to specify diesel fuel of the correct cetane number.
Fig. 93
With their better temperature and oxidation stability
synthetic lubrication oils oer quite a few benets.
Oil change intervals
The longest permissible time a lubrication oil should
remain in an engine is 1 year. I f the following oil change
intervals are not reached over a period of 1 year, the
oil change should be performed at least once per year,
irrespective of the operating hours reached.
ACEA*

CH-4/SJ
CI-4/SK
These intervals apply only when using a
diesel fuel with maximum 0.5 % sulphur
by weight and for ambient temperatures
higher than -10 °C.
Cummins Inc. recommends the use of ASTM number
2D fuel. The use of number 2D diesel fuel will result
in optimum engine performance. At operating
temperatures below 0°C [32°F], acceptable performance
can be obtained by using blends of number 2D and
number 1D.
For a list of acceptable substitute fuels contact the
engine manufacturer.
Winter fuel
Fire hazard!
Diesel fuels must never be mixed with
gasoline.
For winter operation use only winter diesel fuel, to avoid
clogging because of paran separation. At very low
temperatures disturbing paran separation can also
be expected when using winter diesel fuel.

1. Regional, national, or international regulations can require lower
sulfur content. U.S. EPA and California regulations for model year 2011
and later non-road diesel engines require use of low sulfur diesel fuel
(LSD) with 500 ppm maximum or ultra low sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD)
with 15 ppm maximum.

MAINTENANCE
In most cases a sucient cold resistance can also be
achieved by adding ow enhancing fuel additives.
Consult the engine manufacturer.
BioDiesel
Due to the extreme quality dierences of bio-diesel fuels
available on the market, BOMAG recommends that the
use of biodiesel fuels be done in strict accordance with
engine manufactures guidelines. Refer to the engine
manufactures operation, maintenance and service
manuals for certied fuel usage and specications.
Oil for drive axle
For the drive axle use only multi-purpose transmission
oil of API-class GL5 with viscosity class SAE 90.
The additives in this oil ensure low wear lubrication
under all operating conditions.
Lubrication grease
For lubrication use only EP-high pressure grease, lithium
saponied (penetration 2).
Hydraulic oil
The hydraulic system is operated with hydraulic oil HV
46 (ISO) with a kinematic viscosity of 46 mm2/s (cSt)
at 40°C. For topping up or for oil changes use only
high-quality hydraulic oil, type HVLP according to DIN
51524, part 3, or hydraulic oils type HV according to ISO
6743/3. The viscosity index (VI) should be at least 150
(observe information of manufacturer).
OR
The hydraulic system is operated with hydraulic oil
similar to an ISO VG68 but with a kinematic viscosity
of 60 mm2/s (cSt) at 40°C. For topping up or for oil
changes use only high-quality hydraulic oil, of type
Multipurpose Tractor Lubricant similar to a Mobil 424
or CITGO Trans Guard. The viscosity index (VI) should
be at least 140 (observe information of manufacturer).
Bio-degradable hydraulic oil
On request the hydraulic system can also be lled with
ester based biodegradable hydraulic oil (Panolin HLP
Synth. 46). The biologically quickly degradable hydraulic
oil meets all demands of a mineral oil based hydraulic
oil according to DIN 51524.
In hydraulic systems lled with Panolin HLP Synth.
46 always use the same oil to top up. When changing
from mineral oil based hydraulic oil to an ester based
biologically degradable oil, you should consult the
lubrication oil service of the oil manufacturer for details.
Check the lter more frequently after this change.
Oil change biodegradable hydraulic oil:
Perform regular oil analyses for content
of water and mineral oil.
Replace the hydraulic oil lter element
every 500 operating hours.

dry air lter cartridge
Perform cleaning, maintenance and
repair work only with the engine shut
down. Do not start the engine after
removing the lter element.
Do not use gasoline or hot uids to clean
the lter element.
After cleaning the lter element must
be inspected for damage using a torch.
Air lter elements with damaged paper
bellows or seal lips must be replaced in
any case.
The main lter element must be replaced
after 3 times cleaning, but at the latest
after one year, irrespective of the
operating hours.
Each cleaning interval must be marked
with a cross on the cover of the lter
element.
Maintenance of the dry air lter is due when indicated
by the Air lter restriction indicator located on the side
of the engine. (Fig. 159) Maintenance of the Air lter
must minimally occur after one year.
