GENERAL INFORMATION
The V305EH Vibratory Roller is a walk-behind vibratory
roller specifically designed for the compaction and patching
of asphalt type surfaces.
The compaction force is delivered by a 29-inch wide steel
drum with beveled edges to help prevent asphalt marring.
A fully enclosed hydrostatic drive system offers a variable
speed control as well as smooth acceleration and braking.
HYDROSTATIC DRIVE SYSTEM
This hydrostatic design offers a smooth performance,
because of a fully integrated hydrostatically-actuated drive
system, which provides a variable speed control under
varying load conditions. Power from the hydraulic drive
system is transferred via a drive belt to a gear reducer.
CONTROLS
The forward-reverse control lever (located on the handle)
operates the hydrostatic pump which governs the roller
speed and direction of travel. The neutral position of this
lever will cause the roller to stop. The vibration control, when
actuated, will apply a force of 4,200 vpm (vibrations per
minute). This vibratory feature is controlled by an eccentric
shaft via an operator controlled mechanical clutch.
FREE WHEEL ENGAGEMENT LEVER
lever located on the handle with three water-flow adjustment
settings.
Before starting an asphalt rolling job, be sure all spray bar
holes are clear of dirt or foreign matter and are working.
Front and rear neoprene rubber scrapers are provided to
prevent the build-up of material between the drum and
the frame.
Always use clean fresh water in the water tank. A plastic
water reservoir is provided to prevent rust. It is suggested
to drain and flush water tank and spray bars every 30 days
to help the sprinkler system operate smoothly.
TRANSPORTATION
To help transport the roller from job site to job site,
adjustable transport hooks have been provided. These
transport hooks allow an operator to place the roller on
the tailgate of a dump truck without any assistance. The
control handle of the roller can be folded vertically for ease
of transport and storage.
LIFTING THE ROLLER
When lifting of the roller is required (Figure 2), attach a
suitable hook or shackle to the lifting eye of the roller. Make
sure the lifting device is capable of lifting 1,168 lbs (530 kg).
The hydrostatic transmission is equipped with a free wheel
engagement lever, which when actuated, allows the oil to
circulate freely within the roller. This allows the roller to be
moved without the engine running. This lever is only to be
used in the event the roller is disabled.
This lever is located on the that side of the transmission
which faces the front of the roller. It is actuated by placing
the handle into the side-lock position. To gain access to
this lever raise the roller's hood. DO NOT raise hood while
engine is running. STOP engine first.
NOTICE
In normal operating conditions the roller will not move
in a forward or reverse direction unless the free wheel
engagement lever is in the engage position (forward).
SPRINKLER SYSTEM
A 7 gallon (26.5 liters) water tank with a gravity feed spray
bar is provided for wetting the roll for asphaltic pavement
rolling. The delivery system is controlled by a mechanical

GENERAL INFORMATION
CAUTION
NEVER stand under, or get onto the roller while it is
being lifted or moved.
NOTICE
ONLY use steel ropes or chains that are capable of
lifting at least 2,000 lbs (907 kg).
NEVER use any other part of the roller for lifting
purposes. Use the lifting eye. Using other parts of the
roller for lifting will cause severe damage to the roller.
OPERATING ON SLOPES
Special care must be taken when operating the roller on
hills or slopes. There exist the possibility of serious injury to
the operator and severe damage to the roller in the event
of a roll over. ALWAYS operate the roller up and down hills
rather than from side to side. For safe operation, hillside
slopes should not exceed 6° (10% grade). See Figure 3
below.
Tipping (Rollovers)
NEVER operate the roller on side slopes (Figure 4). The
possibility exists of the roller tipping over (roll over), thus
causing bodily harm even death and serious damage to
the equipment.

ROLL OVER
MAXIMUM SLOPE

Figure 3. Recommended Slope
Figure 4. Tipping (Rollover)
In the event the roller does tip over, extreme care must be
taken to prevent damage to the engine. When the roller has
been tipped over, oil from the engine crankcase can flow
into the combustion chamber, which can severely damage
the engine the next time it is started.
IMMEDIATELY after a unit has tipped over upright the unit
as soon as possible to prevent oil from leaking into the
combustion chamber.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the engine after a rollover, the
unit must NOT be started. NEVER start a unit after a
rollover. CONTACT your nearest authorized Multiquip
dealer for instructions or servicing.
CAUTION
NEVER operate the roller on side slopes. The roller
may tip over causing injury to personnel and severe
damage to the equipment.
