General Information

The opening section covers safety procedures, machine specifications, fluid specifications, standard torque data, serial number locations, component identification, cleaning and inspection procedures, and lubrication guidelines. Standard torque tables cover metric bolts from 5mm to 30mm in grades 8.8, 10.9, and 12.9, plus tube nuts, fittings, and flanges.

Engine

Details the Cummins 6BT5.9C turbo diesel engine — 6 cylinder, 359 cu.in. (5880 cc), rated at 122 HP (91 kW) SAE net at 2500 rpm. Includes the Cummins engine warranty, engine removal procedures, and engine data tables. The removal section provides step-by-step instructions with component weights and lifting points.

Electrical System

Comprehensive coverage of the 12-volt negative ground system. Includes starter and charging circuit diagnostics (with separate coverage before and after serial number JKC8302000), battery testing and diagnostics, alternator output testing, system leakage checks, instrument panel wiring, emergency stop and brake circuits, vibration circuits (before and after serial number JKC8300700), lighting circuits, work lights, accessory plug, heater, wipers, cab wiring, and complete wire harness diagrams with wire charts for harnesses 7250/16315 and 7250/16110. Fuse and relay locations are diagrammed with function tables.

Hydraulic System

Covers the full hydraulic circuit: suction lines, cooling system, drain lines, test station procedures, charge system, propulsion system, multifunction valves, vibration system, steering system, parking brake system, and towing procedures. The hydraulic test station is documented with pressure check points: charge at 20 bar (285 PSI), steering at 140 bar (2000 PSI), vibration at 350 bar (4600 PSI), propulsion reverse at 420 bar (6000 PSI), and leveling blade at 180 bar (2600 PSI). Propulsion and vibration system diagnostics are included, along with internal leakage testing procedures and pump servo control information.

Final Drives

Covers the Kessler heavy duty axle, the Speth standard axle, and the Speth heavy duty axle. Includes rear axle removal and installation, axle tube disassembly, planetary disassembly and assembly, differential lock removal and assembly, axle tube and planetary assembly, intermediate gearbox disassembly and assembly, differential disassembly and assembly, drum removal and installation, drum drive, drum drive bearing removal and installation, and drum drive motor repairs. The differential setup section explains tooth contact pattern checking and shim adjustment.

Parking Brake System

Includes brake release and towing procedures, the Poclain P35 drum motor brake, disassembly and assembly of the motor brake, standard axle band brake, band brake adjustment, band brake cylinder service, and heavy duty axle brake information. The motor brake section includes piston stroke measurement and shim stack adjustment.

Vibration System

Vibration system operation and specifications, including the 1680 VPM (28 Hz) low frequency and 2160 VPM (36 Hz) high frequency modes for smooth drum models. Padfoot models operate at the lower frequency only. Includes vibratory system diagnostics, the exciter shaft lifting device (with dimensional drawings for making the tool), drum removal and installation, exciter bearing removal and assembly, smooth drum shaft, and padfoot drum shaft procedures. Frequency measurement using a Vibromax VT9013 frequency meter is covered.

Steering System

Special tools (including a bushing you can make from mild steel, with dimensions), articulation joints, joint disassembly, joint assembly, and steering cylinder service. The articulation joint bearings are designed to be assembled without grease — the manual notes that lubrication will actually shorten bearing life.

Chassis and Attachments

Drum frame, rear frame, side frame, engine compartment panels, operator platform, and rollover protection structure (ROPS). ROPS mounting torque values are provided. The attachments section covers the leveling blade, blade control, and blade hydraulic lines.

Built for the Shop, Not the Shelf

Whether you’re performing routine maintenance, diagnosing a hydraulic fault, rebuilding a final drive, or troubleshooting the electrical system on a Vibromax 1103 roller, this manual gives you the exact procedures, specifications, and diagrams the factory used. The hydraulic test station section alone is worth the investment — it tells you where to connect gauges and what pressures to expect for the charge, steering, and vibration circuits. The electrical section includes complete wire harness diagrams and wire charts, making circuit tracing straightforward instead of guesswork.

The final drive chapter walks through the Speth axle from removal to reassembly, including the differential tooth contact pattern procedure that prevents premature gear failure. The vibration system chapter explains how the overturning weights change amplitude with shaft rotation direction, so you understand why high frequency pairs with low amplitude and vice versa. Torque values, clearances, and adjustment dimensions are called out throughout — not buried in a separate table you have to hunt for.
