Product of the Week – Bomag BW100AD-4 tandem vibratory roller
The Tier 4i, 32.6-hp, water-cooled Kubota diesel engine delivers up to 8,350 pounds of centrifugal force per drum and a maximum frequency of 4,200 vibrations per minute. A standard crab walk allows the roller’s rear drum to be offset by 1.6 inches in either direction, thereby allowing improved maneuverability around site obstructions.
A new Smart Drive steering wheel has a smaller diameter, providing maximum operator comfort and a clear view of all indicator controls. A laterally sliding seat offers an excellent view of the drums. The suspended operator’s platform is also equipped with a fuel level indicator and hour meter.
Service requirements for the roller are simplified by a maintenance-free, bolt-on articulating and oscillating joint and flexible scrapers for each drum. A 58.1-gallon water tank and pressurized spray system feature filtered nozzles and windscreen protection for uniform coverage.
