L i m i t e d W a r r a n t y

The Manufacturer warrants that products manufactured shall be free from defects in material and workmanship that develop under normal use for a period of 90 days for concrete vibrators and electric pumps, one year for Rhino®, Bulldog®, Wolfpac Rollers™, trowels, Stompers®, saws, forward plates, engine powered pumps, and 6 months for all other products from the date of shipment. The foregoing shall be the exclusive remedy of the buyer and the exclusive liability of the Manufacturer. Our warranty excludes normal replaceable wear items, i.e. gaskets, wear plates, seals, O-rings, V-belts, drive chains, clutches, etc. Any equipment, part or product which is furnished by the Manufacturer but manufactured by another, bears only the warranty given by such other manufacturer. (The Manufacturer extends the warranty period to “Lifetime” for the drum bearings and seals for the mortar mixers, and agrees to furnish, free of charge, the bearings and seals only upon receipt of the defective parts. The warranty is two years for eccentric bearings on the forward plate compactors, mortar and plaster mixer drums, trowel gearboxes and five years on the Bulldog trench roller eccentric bearings.) A Warranty Evaluation Form must accompany all defective parts. Warranty is voided by product abuse, alterations, and use of equipment in applications for which it was not intended, use of non-manufacturer parts, or failure to follow documented service instructions. The foregoing warranty is exclusive of all other warranties whether written or oral, expressed or implied. No warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose shall apply.

A Warranty Evaluation Form must accompany all warranty claims.

Except as set forth hereinabove and without limitation of the above, there are no warranties or other affirmations which extends beyond the description of the products and the fact hereof, or as to operational efficiency, product reliability or maintainability or compatibility with products furnished by others. In no event whether as a result of breach of contract or warranty or alleged negligence, shall the Manufacturer be liable for special or consequential damages including but not limited to: Loss of profits or revenues, loss of use of the product or any associated product, cost of capital, cost of substitute products, facilities or services or claims of customers.

3.OPERATION

3.1INTRODUCTION AND OPERATING PRINCIPLE

This roller is ergonomically engineered to optimize operator interface with the total machine – it’s really “user friendly”. Besides good visibility to the roll-edge, as well as the work surface, you’ll find that the controls are exactly in the right places for maximum comfort. And it is very convenient to monitor all the consumables – fuel, hydraulic oil, etc.

Our common sense approach to servicing is a valuable benefit. Thanks to our modular design, everything that needs servicing is located behind one of the easy-access service panels or is under the rear cowl.

For maneuverability and productivity, nothing beats the proven performance of center-point articulation. Because the drum and tires track each other exactly, tight turns are achieved smoothly. The roller is equipped with full positive traction, front to rear and side to side, which keeps the roller moving through various conditions.

There’s power steering – a feature no operator wants to be without. A variable hydrostatic drive system provides infinitely variable speed control – from 0 to 4 mph. The eccentric delivers a centrifugal force sufficient to compact all types of soil. Superior vibration isolation to the operator is achieved by mounting heavy-duty shock mounts between the eccentric and support frames.

The following instructions were compiled to provide you information on how to obtain long and trouble-free use of the roller. Periodic maintenance of the roller is essential. Read this manual in its entirety and follow the instructions carefully. Failure to do so may cause injury to you or a bystander.

3. OPERATION

3.2 DIESEL FUEL

Do not mix oil with fuel. The engine has a separate oil reservoir in the crankcase. Diesel fuel blend meeting ASTM D915 or EN590 and a premium diesel fuel conditioner is recommended.

WARNING

FUEL IS BOTH TOXIC AND FLAMMABLE. DO NOT SMOKE WHILE WORKING WITH FUEL. DO NOT USE NEAR OPEN FLAME. ALWAYS STOP ENGINE BEFORE REFUELING. CLEAN UP SPILLED FUEL BEFORE STARTING. AVOID FIRES BY KEEPING ENGINE CLEAN OF ACCUMULATED GREASE AND DEBRIS.

START, STORE, AND REFUEL ON LEVEL GROUND TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY. DO NOT RUN UNIT IN AN ENCLOSED, NONVENTILATED AREA. AVOID PROLONGED BREATHING OF VAPORS AND SKIN CONTACT. SERIOUS ILLNESS OR LOSS OF LIFE COULD RESULT.

KEEP THE VENT HOLE IN FUEL TANK CAP OPEN. IF VENT HOLE IS PLUGGED, PRESSURE MAY BUILD UP IN TANK, CAUSING DANGEROUS SPRAYING OF FUELWHEN TANK CAP IS REMOVED. A VACUUM MAY ALSO BE CREATED DURING OPERATION, WHICH COULD STOP FUEL FLOW. DIESEL FUEL IS MANDATORY FOR USE IN THIS ENGINE. ALWAYS USE CLEAN FUEL. LOW QUALITY OR CONTAMINATED FUEL WILL DAMAGE FUEL INJECTION COMPONENTS.

DIESEL FUEL STORED IN GALVANIZED CONTAINERS REACTS CHEMICALLY WITH THE ZINC COATING ON THE CONTAINER. THE CHEMICAL REACTION CREATES POWDERY FLAKES OF ZINC SULFIDE. IF WATER IS PRESENT IN THE FUEL, A ZINC HYDROXIDE GEL WILL FORM.

3.3 ENGINE BREAK-IN

IMPORTANT – Read Engine Manual for break-in requirements. 1st 100 hours John Deere break-in oil only (TY 22041). Do not add oil until level is in the add area on the dipstick. Do not fill above the crosshatched area on the dipstick. 1st 100 hours run engine at full throttle. Operate engine at heavy loads, do not idle longer than 5 minutes. Check oil frequently, do not exceed 100 hours with break-in oil.

3.4 ENGINE OIL AND FILTER

Change oil and filter at 100 hours, then every 250 hours. Use SAE 15W-40 API CG-4 or API CF-4. Refer to Engine Manual for additional oil types and recommendations. Do not mix different brands or types of oil. Mixing oils can degrade lubrication performance.

3.5 WARNING LIGHT

Unit is equipped with a warning light for low pressure and/or hot engine temperature.

Specifications:

Oil pressure at full speed: 40 – 50 psi (2.75 – 3.45 bar)

Coolant temperature range: 180° - 202°F (82° - 94°C)

3.6 HYDRAULIC OIL, FILTER, BREATHER

WARNING

PRESSURIZED RELEASE OF FLUIDS FROM HYDRAULIC SYSTEM CAN CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS. SHUT OFF ENGINE. ONLY REMOVE BREATHER CAP WHEN COOL ENOUGH TO TOUCH WITH BARE HANDS. SLOWLY LOOSEN CAP TO FIRST STOP TO RELIEVE PRESSURE BEFORE REMOVING COMPLETELY.

Check the hydraulic oil level. Use the sight gauge located on the hydraulic tank. A 1/4 – 1/2” air bubble will be seen at the top of the gauge showing the fluid level.

- 23 -

3. OPERATION

For satisfactory operation, the following oil conditions apply:

1.Accurate level readings can be checked only when the fluid is cold.

2.If the natural color of the fluid has become black or milky, it is possible that an overheating or water contaminant problem exists.

3.Do not mix hydraulic fluids. Mobil 424 is recommended for the hydraulic system.

CAUTION: After a new unit has run 5 hours, the oil filter should be changed. This is to rid the system of any trapped contamination from the wearin of the parts. Refer to Maintenance for hydraulic filter change.

3.7 ENGINE COOLANT

WARNING

CHECK COOLING SYSTEM CAREFULLY. EXPLOSIVE RELEASE OF FLUIDS FROM PRESSURIZED COOLING SYSTEM CAN CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS.

To check coolant level:

1.Shut off engine, allow to cool.

2.Only remove filler cap when cool enough to touch with bare hands. Slowly loosen cap to first stop to relieve pressure before removing completely.

3.Remove cap, coolant level should just touch the bottom of radiator filler neck. If coolant is required, see “Adding Coolant” in the Maintenance section of this manual.

IMPORTANT: Do not overfill radiator. Refer to “Coolant Maintenance” if additional coolant is required. Never pour cold liquid into a hot engine, as it may crack cylinder head or block. DO NOT operate engine without coolant for even a few minutes. If coolant leaks or abnormal temperature is detected, contact a service technician immediately.

NOTE:It is normal for a small amount of leakage to occur as the engine cools down and parts contract. Excessive coolant leakage may indicate the need to

replace the water pump seal. Contact your engine distributor or servicing dealer for repairs.

3.8 VISUAL INSPECTION

Make a thorough inspection of the engine compartment daily. Look for oil or coolant leaks, worn fan belt, loose connections and trash build-up. Remove trash build-up and have repairs made as needed if leaks are found.

NOTE:Wipe all fittings, caps, and plugs before performing any maintenance to reduce the chance of system contamination.

Air intake system hoses and connections for cracks and loose clamps.

Fan belt for cracks, breaks, or other damage.

Water pump for coolant leaks.

3.9 AIR CLEANER

IMPORTANT: The air intake system must not leak. Any leak, no matter how small, may result in engine failure due to abrasive dirt and dust entering the intake system.

1.Inspect all intake hoses (piping) for cracks.

2.Check clamps on piping which connect the air cleaner and engine.

3.Squeeze dust unloader valve (A) on air cleaner assembly to remove dust deposits. If clogged, remove and clean the dust unloader valve. Replace if damaged.

IMPORTANT: Do not operate engine without the dust unloader valve.

3.32 TOWING (BYPASS)

WARNING

NEVER PUSH OR PULLTHE ROLLER WITH THE ENGINE OFF. WHEN ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING, THE BRAKE IS APPLIED. WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING AND THE FORWARD/REVERSE LEVER IS IN NEUTRAL, THE BRAKE WILL APPLY WITHIN 2 SECONDS.

In an emergency or during a breakdown, it may be necessary or desirable to tow the roller. This may be accomplished by mechanically releasing the brake and bypassing the transmission pump. If these procedures are followed carefully, the roller may be moved short distances at LOW speed without running the engine.

The brake is located in the front wheel motor, which drives the drum of the roller. There is an access hole in the front frame to assist in releasing the brake. Refer to the Drum Assembly #39 22770 Kit Bypass to identify these parts. The threaded hole in the center of the wheel motor requires a M12 bolt long enough to extend beyond the frame when fully engaged. A bolt, washer, and nut is included in a separate package for this

3. OPERATION

purpose. Fully install the nut and washer on the bolt. Insert this assembly through the hole in the frame such that the washer is over the hole with the nut against the outside of this washer. Thread the bolt, finger tight into the wheel motor to the bottom of the hole. Now tighten the nut against the washer until the brake is compressed and released. This should require about 44 ft. lbs. torque. Do not torque the bolt. Be careful not to over-torque beyond releasing the brake.

The bypass valve is located on the transmission pump. The seat and battery plate should be removed for access to the transmission pump. The bypass valve is controlled by a shaft with cross-drilled holes and maybe a slot in the end. This shaft may be turned manually to open the valve and allow the motor to turn. The valve is fully open with two revolutions of the shaft. DO NOT OPEN VALVE PAST TWO TURNS. The valve must be fully closed for normal operation. The torque required to close the valve is only 7 to 10 ft. lbs.

DAMAGE MAY RESULT FROM OVERTORQUING.

3.33 STORAGE

IMPORTANT: The front wheel motor has a rubber plug in the M12 hole to prevent contamination. Reinstall the rubber plug after towing

1.Store the roller on level ground with drums blocked and parking brake on.

2.Remove the key. Operations of roller by untrained persons could result in personal injury.

3.During extended storage, drums can be coated with any type of oil or grease to prevent rusting.

4.Storage instructions for the engine are stated in the Engine Manual and should be carried out.
