AR13HA-HAR RIDE-ON ROLLER — GENERAL INFORMATION

The AR-13H roller has been designed for asphalt application and compaction of granular soils used in site preparation. Use the machine only for the purpose intended and by experienced personnel who understand this operating manual and all safety decals. Typical applications for this roller are driveways, patch work and road repairs. Standard features included with this roller are articulated steering, double drum hydrostatic drive, front drum vibration, high curb clearance and on board water capability.

POWER PLANT

The AR-13H roller is powered by a Honda GX-610, air cooled, gasoline engine rated at 18 hp @3,500 rpm. The engine features a side-mounted muffler designed to direct engine exhaust away from the operator. In the event of low oil, this engine has a built in

" oil alert system " that will shut-down if the engine oil level reaches an unsafe operating level.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

The Honda GX-610 engine drives an axial hydraulics, variable displacement pump which is manually controlled via a cable control system. Pump flow is directed through an aluminum block manifold which provides the control for the 3 hydraulic motors.

The hydraulic drum drive system incorporates a parallel closed loop configuration operating at a maximum pressure of 2,900 psi. In addition this hydraulic system offers a " free wheel valve " which allows the roller to be towed in the event of an emergency.

COMPACTION SYSTEM

The compaction force is delivered by a 36-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.

Connected to the axial hydraulic pump is a gear pump that provides power for the drum vibratory system and the articulating steering system. Oil from this pump flows to the manifold control valve block and then to a hydraulic motor which rotates the eccentric weights inside a sealed housing containing oil to lubricate the bearings.

A pushbutton switch located on top of the gearshift lever when pressed activates a hydraforce valve that engages or disgages the vibratory action. The drum's vibratory action generates 3,100 lbs. (1,406 Kg.) of centrifugal force at a frequency of 4,000 vpm

(vibrations per minute). If the vibration appears to be weak or slow, allow the machine to warm-up thoroughly, and check the hydraulic oil level. Add hydraulic oil if necessary.

The vibrator housing and drum are shock mounted to isolate the engine compartment and operator from vibration.

The roller nominally has an operating weight of 3,088 lbs (1,400

Kg.), but can be increased to 3,309 lbs (1,500 Kg.) by adding water ballast to the rear drum.

HYDRAULIC OIL FILTER SYSTEM

The hydraulic system oil is filtered by a screen type filter located in the reservoir filler neck, then doubled filtered within the system first by a 40 micron mesh-type suction filter located in the tank and the by a Zinga 10 micron, cartridge style spin-on return line filter.

ARTICULATED STEERING SYSTEM

Power for the articulated steering system, which uses a single hydraulic cylinder is provided by the gear pump. This steering system can produce an inside turning radius of 109 inches (2.77

meters).

SPRINKLER SYSTEM

A 60 gallon (227 liters) water tank with a gravity feed spray bar is provided for wetting the roll for asphaltic pavement rolling.

The water system is fully adjustable from the operator’s position by adjusting the two water valves. The front valve controls the water supply to the front drum, and the rear valve controls water to the rear drum.

Before starting an asphalt rolling job, be sure all spray bar holes are clear of dirt or foreign matter and are working. Always use clean fresh water in the water tank. To prevent rust and foreign debris from clogging the spray bar holes, drain and flush water tank and spray bars every 30 days.

LIFTING THE ROLLER

When lifting of the roller is required, attach a suitable hook or shackle to the lifting eye of the roller. These lifting points (4) are marked by a lifting hook decal. Make sure the lifting device is capable of lifting 4,000 lbs. (1,814 Kg).

DANGER - Clear Obstacles from Area

Before operating the roller, make sure that personnel and obstacles are free from the roller’s path. Serious injury or even death can result!

The forward-reverse control lever operates the hydrostatic pump which governs the roller speed and direction of travel. The speed in which movement of this lever is made is directly related to the amount of pressure that is applied to the travel lever in each direction. Travel speed is infinitely variable from 0 to 4.8 mph.The

neutral position of this lever will cause the roller to stop.


AR13HA-HAR RIDE-ON ROLLER — GENERAL INFORMATION

DANGER - Transporting Safety

DO NOT allow personnel to stand under or near any suspended machine. Serious injury or death may result.

Tipping (Rollovers)

NEVER!

operate the roller on side slopes (Figure 3). The possibility exist that the roller could tip over (roll over), thus causing bodily harm even death and serious damage to the equipment.

CAUTION - Use CERTIFIED Lifting Devices

ONLY! use approved certified lifting devices capable of lifting at least 4,000 lbs. (1,814 Kg.).

SIDE TO SIDE

OPERATION

NOT RECOMMENDED

CAUTION - Lifting the Roller

When lifting of the roller is required, only use the provided lifting eyes to lift the roller. Using other sections of the roller for lifting purposes may 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 rater than from side to side.

For safe operation hillside slopes should not exceed 12 degree

(27 % grade). See Figure 2 below.

Figure 3. Tipping (Rollover)

ROLL OVER

NOTICE

NEVER!

operate the roller on side slopes. The roller may tip over causing injury to personnel and severe damage to the equipment .

MAXIMUM SLOPE

27%

Figure 2. Recommend Slope

In the event the roller does tip over, if at all possible, try to shutdown the engine by turning the ignition key to the OFF position.

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.

CAUTION - Roller Rollover Safety

To prevent damage to the engine after a rollover, the roller must NOT be started. NEVER start a roller after a rollover.

AAR13HA-HAR RIDE-ON ROLLER — MAINTENANCE

Hydraulic Oil System

The hydraulic system consists of a two pump stack directly coupled to the engine. A hydraulic valve block (manifold)is provided for quick and easy testing and troubleshooting.

Hydraulic oil is filtered by a screen filter located in the tank filler neck, a 40 micron suction filter located in the tank, and a 10 micron return filter , with cold oil bypass valve located in the return circuit.

It is recommended that ISO 46 type hydraulic oil or equivalent be used when adding or replacing the hydraulic oil is required.

DO NOT USE MULTI-VISCOSITY OIL.

Cleanliness is a very important part of proper hydraulic system operation. Hydraulic oil is not only used to transfer power; it also lubricates and cools the system components. Keeping the hydraulic system clean can help reduce costly repairs.

The hydraulic oil level sight glass is located on the right rear of the front drum, below the engine compartment. This level should be checked daily. Oil must be below the top and above the bottom of the sight glass. DO NOT OVERFILL! Care should be taken to clean the filler cap before adding oil to the system. If hydraulic oil has to be added, the machine should be inspected for leaks.

The suction filter (Figure 26) is located inside the hydraulic tank. This filter is attached to the fitting connected to the hydraulic pump suction hose.

The return filter (Figure 26) is located at the front of the engine compartment. Replace both filters according to the Table 5.

CAUTION - HYDRAULIC SYSTEM HAZARD

DO NOT open hydraulic lines or loosen hydraulic fittings while engine is running! Hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin, blind, cause burns or create other potentially dangerous hazards follow all safety instructions as described throughout this manual.

Changing Hydraulic Oil and Filters

1.

Park the roller on a clean flat work area and set the parking brake.

2.

Remove the hydraulic oil drain plug (Figure 26) and drain the hydraulic oil. Dispose of the used oil in an environmentally friendly manner. Replace the drain plug and tighten.

3.

Remove the return filter and install a new filter . Dispose of the used filter in an environmentally friendly manner.

4.

Disconnect the suction hose and remove the fitting from the tank. Replace the suction filter. Dispose of the used filter in an environmentally friendly manner. Replace the fitting and reconnect the suction hose.

Freewheel Engagement Valve

This hydraulic system has a freewheel engagemet valve allowing hydraulic oil to be bypassed.

Open (turn allen wrench counterclockwise) this valve (Figure 27) to engage the freewheel capability of the roller. When the valve is fully opened, ports A and B are allowed to connect, bypassing the oil to and from the drum drive motors.

Remember the freewheel engagement valve should only be used in emergencies when the roller cannot be driven due to engine or hydraulic system problems.

When towing of the roller has been completed, this valve must be closed (turn allen wrench fully clockwise) completely and the lock nut set. Failure to close this valve completely will result in low power, improper speed, and excessive hydraulic oil temperature.


OPEN

ALLEN

WRENCH


CAUTION - Freewheel Engagement Valve

The freewheel engagement valve (towing) is only for emergency use . DO NOT move roller over 2 MPH or long distances as hydraulic system component failure could result.

The vibration circuit is controlled by an electric control valve located on the valve block (manifold). This valve is controlled by the “ ON/OFF ” pushbutton switch mounted on top of the travel lever.

High-pressure oil is supplied by the pump to the valve block ( port P ) and is directed to the electric control valve. When the pushbutton switch is in the

“ OFF ” position, this valve is open allowing oil to go to the steering valve, without driving the vibration motor.

TOW

FREEWHEEL

ENGAGEMENT

VALVE

CLOSED

When the switch is in the “ ON ” position, the electric control valve closes and oil is directed out of port 1 to the vibration motor. Return oil from the motor returns to the valve block via port

2 and is directed to the steering valve.

Figure 27. Freewheel Engagement Valve

Drum Drive

The drum drive circuit is a parallel , closed loop system

(Figures 38 and 39) consisting of a hydrostatic pump, two relief valves, a freewheel engagement valve, front and rear drum drive motors.

The hydrostatic pump is manually controlled by a cable connected to the forward/reverse shift lever located on the right side of the operator seat. When the shift lever is placed in forward, high-pressure oil is supplied by the hydrostatic pump to the valve block ( port A ). The valve block (manifold) directs this highpressure oil to the front and rear drum drive motors. Return oil from the motors is returned to the valve block ( port B ) and is returned to the suction side of the hydrostatic pump.

When shifted into reverse, the high-pressure and suction ports on the hydrostatic pump are reversed. Oil flow is then in the opposite direction of forward ( port B becomes high-pressure and port A becomes suction)

Vibration and Steering

The vibration and steering system is an open loop circuit operated by a gear type pump. Separate relief valves control each circuit. This system consist of the gear pump, relief valves, electric vibration control valve, vibration drive motor, steering valve, and steering cylinder.

Steering is controlled by a steering valve and cylinder (Figures

29 and 30). The steering wheel is direct coupled to the steering valve controling the oil flow to the cylinder. Oil supplied from the vibration circuit is directed to port 3 which connects to port P of the steering valve. When steering is not being used, oil passes out of port T of the valve block and returns to the hydraulic tank.

When the steering wheel is operated, the steering valve closes and oil is directed to ports L or R to extend or retract the steering cylinder.

Rubber Scrapper Mat

Rubber scraper mats have been provided for the cleaning of the front and rear drums. Adjust the scrapers mats as close as possible to the drums, using the slotted holes (Figure 28) provided. Replace these rubber mats when they become badly worn.

Figure 28. Scraper Bar Adjustment



Forward/Reverse Hydraulic Pressure Test

Park the machine on a solid flat surface and stop the engine. Set the parking brake and block the front drum securely .

1.

Check hydraulic oil level by viewing the hydraulic oil sight glass. The hydraulic oil level must be below the top and above the bottom of the sight glass. DO NOT OVERFILL!

2.

Adjust engine RPM (3,500 +/- 50 RPM)

3.

Let engine run for 5 minutes, this will bring the hydraulic oil operating temperature to a minimum of 135

°

farenheit.

4.

Check and repair all hydraulic leaks.

5.

On the manifold block install a 5,000 psi pressure gauge

(Figure 34) to the forward pressure quick disconnect test port 2

6.

Run engine at full throttle.

7.

Move the travel lever to the forward position.

MAKE SURE

FRONT AND REAR DRUMS DO NOT SPIN.

The front drum is designed to apply vibration and compaction force to the operating surface for compaction. This vibration and compaction force is produced when the vibrator shaft is rotated.

Maximum efficiency is achieved only when the engine is operated at full throttle.

A single drive motor is mounted on the left side of the drum and is shockmounted. This type of drive motor is designed for maximum torque and power.

The vibrator is driven by a gear motor coupled to the vibrator shaft. The vibrator assembly rotates inside of a sealed housing containing oil to lubricate the bearings. This side of the drum is also shock mounted.

Front and Rear Drum Removal and Disassembly.

The removal and disassembly of the front and rear drums shall be referenced by Figures 37, 38, and 39 on the following pages.

Alternator/Regulator

The AR-13H is equipped with a 20 amp charging system. This system uses three charge coils connected in parallel. The windings of each coil are wound with heave-duty insulated wire and are further protected by insulating material for long life. A voltage regulator is provided to control the amount of charge voltage being delivered to the 12 volt electrical system. For servicing this charging system, contact your Honda dealer.

Neutral Safety Switch

The travel lever is provided with a neutral safety switch

(Figure 40) that prevents the engine from starting when the lever is in the forward or reverse drive position. Lever must be placed in the neutral position in order for the starter to function.

To check this switch, remove the panel located below and to the rear of the floor. This switch is mounted to the lower forward/ reverse lever mechanism. Disconnect the white and green wires.

Place the lever in neutral and test for continuity. Place the lever in forward or reverse; no continuity should be present. Repair or replace as required.

Figure 41. Vibration Solenoid

Battery

Mishandling of the battery shortens the service life of the battery ans adds to maintenance cost. When handling the battery do the following:

 Be careful not to let the battery electrolyte come in contact with your body or clothing.



Always wear eye protection and rubber gloves, since the battery contains sulfuric acid which burns skin and eats through clothing.

CAUTION - BATTERY ACID BURN HAZARD

If your clothing or skin comes in contact with the battery acid, immediately wash off with running water and get medical attention.

Figure 40. Safety Switch

Vibrator Solenoid

The vibrator solenoid (Figure 41) is located in the manifold valve block and is controlled by the vibration switch located on top of the travel lever. This solenoid controls the vibration control valve which supplies hydraulic oil to the vibration drive motor.

To test the vibration solenoid, turn the ignition switch on. Check for proper supply voltage and ground. If proper voltage and ground are present, check the solenoid for continuity. If no continuity, replace the solenoid coil. If continuity is present, place your hand on the solenoid and turn the switch to the ON position; movement should be felt. DO NOT START THE ENGINE FOR

THIS TEST



Check the battery regulary and make sure that each electrolyte level is to the bottom of the vent well

(Figure 42). If necessary add only distilled water in a well-ventilated area.

RIDE-ON ROLLER — PREPARATION FOR LONG-TERM STORAGE

Roller Storage

For storage of the roller for over 30 days, the following is recommended:

 Drain the fuel tank completely, or add STA-BIL to the fuel.

 Run the engine until the fuel in the injection system is completely consumed

.

 Completely drain used oil from the engine crankcase and fill with fresh clean oil, then follow the procedures described in the engine manual for engine storage.

 Drain water tank

 Clean the entire roller and engine compartment.



Remove battery and store it in cool dry place.

 Cover the roller and place it a clean dry area, that is protected from harsh elements.



Remove ignition key, and store in a safe place.
