depressurized!) check all connections and fittings
for leaks.
Changing hydraulic hoses
Hydraulic hoses must be visually inspected at reg-
ular intervals.
Hydraulic hoses must be immediately replaced if:
l the outer layer is damaged down to the inlay
(e.g. chafing, cuts, cracks)
l the outer layer is brittle (formation of cracks in
the hose material)
l the hose shows deformations in pressurized
and depressurized condition, which do not
comply with the genuine shape of the hydrau-
lic hose
l the hose shows deformations in bends, e.g.
squeezing, buckling, layer separation, forma-
tion of blisters
l parts of the hose are leaking.
l hoses are not correctly installed.
l the hydraulic hose has separated from the fit-
ting
l the fitting shows corrosion that impairs both
function and strength.
BMP 851 BOMAG
Safety regulations
l hoses are mixed up by mistake.
l fittings are damaged or deformed, whereby
the function and strength of the hose/hose
connection is impaired.

Strictly follow the operating instructions for
the battery charger.
i Note
Ageing of the power pack reduces the discharging
capacity and therefore the operating time of the
sender.
The full discharging capacity is only reached after
several charging cycles.
i Note
As the charging of the power pack succeeds, the
charging current drops, so that overcharging of the
power pack is almost impossible. However, if the
control is switched off for a couple of days (holi-
days, bad weather) you should also disconnect the
charging unit from the mains supply or switch off

5.2 Fuels and lubricants
Engine oil
l Use winter-grade engine oil for winter opera-
tion!
To ensure perfect cold starting it is important to
choose the viscosity (SAE grade) of the engine oil
with respect to the ambient temperature.
The oil change intervals must be shortened when
working at temperatures below -10°C.
Fig. 131
Lubrication oil with a too high viscosity index will
cause starting difficulties. The temperature when
starting the engine is therefore decisive for select-
ing the correct viscosity for winter operation.
Oil viscosity
Since the viscosity of the lubrication oil changes
with the temperature, the ambient temperature at
the engine's operating location determines the vis-
cosity class (SAE-grade) to be chosen (see dia-
gram).
Although cold stating abilities may be impaired if
the temperature occasionally drops below the limit
(e.g. use of SAE 15W/40 down to -15°C), this will
not cause any damage to the engine.
Temperature related lubrication oil changes can
be avoided when using multi-purpose oils. The fol-
BMP 851
Maintenance
lowing oil change intervals also apply for multi-pur-
pose oils.
Regular lubrication oil changes
The longest permissible utilization time for the lu-
brication oil in the engine is 1 year. If the following
oil change intervals are not reached within a year,
the oil must be changed at least once every year,
irrespective of the operating hours.
Oil quality
Lubrication oils are differentiated according to
their performance abilities and their quality class.
The most common specifications are the ones ac-
cording to API (American Petroleum Institute) and
CCMC (Committee of Common Market Automo-
bile Constructors).

Only use commercially available brand diesel fuel:
The following fuel specifications are permitted:
DIN 51601- DK; Nato Codes: F-54, F-75, F-76; BS
2869: A1 and A2; ASTM D 975-78: 1-D and 2-D;
VV-F-800 a: DF-A, DF-1 and DF-2.
Winter fuel
For winter operation only use winter-grade diesel
fuel to avoid clogging caused by paraffin separa-
tion. Under very low temperatures such separa-
tions can be expected even with winter-grade
diesel fuel.
BOMAG 73
Maintenance

In most cases it is also possible to mix in fuel ad-

ditives to improve the flow properties. Consult the
engine manufacturer for details.

Mineral oil based hydraulic oil

The hydraulic system works with hydraulic oil
HV 46 (ISO) with a kinematic viscocity of
46 mm2/s at 40°C. For topping up or changing the
hydraulic oil use only quality hydraulic oil type
HVLP according to DIN 51524, part 3, or hydraulic
oil type HV according to ISO 6743/3. The viscosity
index (VI) should be at least 150 (observe the in-
formation from the manufacturer).

Biodegradable hydraulic oil

On request, the hydraulic system can also be filled
with ester based biodegradable hydraulic oil, Pan-
olin HLP Synth. 46.
This biodegradable hydraulic oil Panolin HLP
Synth. 46 meets the demands of a mineral oil
based hydraulic oil according to DIN 51524.
The same oil must be used for topping up hydrau-
lic systems filled with Panolin HLP Synth. 46.
When changing from a mineral oil based hydraulic
oil to an ester based biodegradable hydraulic oil
consult the lubrication oil service department of
the oil manufacturer.
Check the filter more frequently after changing to
the new oil.

Lubrication grease
For lubrication purposes use an EP-high pressure
grease, lithium saponified (penetration 2).
