AR13HA-R RIDE-ON ROLLER — ROLLER COMPONENTS

Figure 4 shows the location of the components and basic components for the AR13HA-R compaction roller. The function of each component or control is described below:

1.Battery – Provides +12VDC to the electrical system, and is located underneath foot plate. Replace only with recommended type battery, see specification Table 1.

2.Articulating Locking Bar – Always make sure that the articulating locking bar is engaged during lifting, transport and maintenance.

3.Foot Step – To lift yourself onto the roller's platform, place foot into foot step, then grab hold of hand rail.

4.Ignition Switch – With key inserted, turn clockwise to start the engine.

5.Rear Sprinkler System – A gravity feed spray bar is provided for the wetting the roll for asphalt pavement.

6.Rear Roller – This roller is a 30 inch wide steel drum with beveled edges (no vibration). The beveled edges help prevent asphalt marring.

7.Lifting Point – Attach a crane or suitable lifting device to this point when lifting of the roller is required.

8.Rear Scrapper – This adjustable rear scrapper blade helps prevent the buildup of material between the drum and frame.

9.Fuel Tank/Fuel Gauge – The fuel capacity of the fuel tank is 9.5 gallons (36 liters). Read the gauge on top of the fuel cap to determine if fuel level is low. Fill with unleaded type gasoline.To gain access to the fuel tank, tilt the front seat forward. Fuel tank has a spill containment feature

10.Tie-DownTransport Point – Attach a chain or suitable tie-down device to this point when transporting of the is required.

TIE-DOWN POINT

11.Front Spray Control Valve – This valve controls the flow of water to the front spray bar.Turn the water valve to the open position (counterclockwise) to let water flow, return this valve to the closed position (clockwise) when water is not required.

12.Rear Spray Control Valve – This valve controls the flow of water to the rear spray bar.Turn the water valve to the open position (counterclockwise) to let water flow, return this valve to the closed position (clockwise) when water is not required.

13.Throttle Control — Pull all the way out to achieved maximum engine RPM's.To idle the engine, push the RED stop button inwards all the way.

14.Vibration Control Button – Press this button to activate the eccentric that will produce a vibration frequency of 4,400 vpm (vibrations per minute). Pressing the button again will stop the vibrations.

15.Shift Lever — Push the lever forward to makethe roller travel in a forward direction, pull the lever backward to make the roller travel in a reverse direction. Maximum travel speed is 4.8 MPH ( 7.7 KPH). Center position is neutral, no travel.

16.Hourmeter — Indicates the number hours the unit has been in use.

17.WaterTank — Remove filler cap and fill with water.Water tank capacity is 60 gallons (227 liters).To determine if water level is low, visually inspect water level gauge (tube) at rear of roller. Add water as necessary.

18.Roll-Over Bar — This unit may be equipped with a Roll Over Protection System (ROPS option) to protect the operator when the roller is used on slopes, open trenches, sharp turns, slippery surfaces or objects in the rollers's path of travel.

19.Operator's Seat — A contoured seat that provides visibility of both front rear drum edges during operation. NEVER! start the roller unless seated in the operator's seat.

20.Parking Break Lever — Pull the lever upward to set the parking break. To release the parking break, press and hold the button on top of the lever and push lever downward.

21.Seat Belt — When using the roller in working conditions always have the operator wear the seat belt. NEVER use the roller without a seat belt. If the seat belt becomes worn or damaged, have it replaced immediately.

22.SteeringWheel — Use this wheel to steer the roller.

23.Choke Knob — Used in the starting of a cold engine, or in cold weather conditions. The choke enriches the fuel mixture.

24.Hydraulic Motor – This hydraulic motor provides control for the rear of the roller

25.Documentation Box — Maintain and store at all times Operation, Parts, and Engine manuals in this box.
