Transmission
Two variable displacement piston pumps supply pressurized flow to two dual displacement piston motors. One pump and motor drives the drum propel system while the other pump and motor drives the rear wheels. The dual pump system ensures equal flow to the drive motors regardless of the operating conditions. In case the drum or wheels lose traction, the other motor can still build additional pressure to provide added torque. The drive motors have two swashplate positions allowing operation at either maximum torque for compaction and gradeability or greater speed for moving around the job site. A rocker switch at the operators console triggers an electric over hydraulic control to change speed ranges. Max. speeds (forward and reverse): Low range 5.8 km/h 3.6 mph 11.1 km/h 6.9 mph High range
