9.1 General information
The compaction roller contains two hydraulic motors and a spur gear unit. These create the continuous
rolling movements of the compaction roller.
The spur gear unit is filled with 6.0 quarts of gear oil.
We recommend a gear oil change every approx. 3000 operating hours.
Ensure that the ambient temperature of the oil is never above +60°C or below -10°C. For operation at other
temperatures, please contact our plant.
9.2 Gear oil type
The correct use of suitable lubricants contributes significantly to achieving the best possible capacity and
avoiding malfunctions.
For this reason we recommend the gear oils
CLP according to DIN 51 517, part 3 with a viscosity of 320 mm²/s at 40°C.
However, you can also use products of an equivalent quality. For examples, please refer to the lubricant
table in chapter 13.
9.3 Changing the oil of the roller gear
Lifting equipment such as forklift trucks or platform floor trucks are required for
the oil change to remove the roller section. It is the owner/user's responsibility to
provide this equipment.
The oil may only be changed by an expert with the authorization of Epax Systems.
In this case, please contact the Lathen plant or one of our service locations.
