When a tandem roller goes down, the 756-page Bomag bw 174 ap, bw 174 acp service manual pdf (OEM 008 915 08) provides the exact factory repair procedures that no other guide can match. Factory hydraulic schematics map the complete flow from the travel pump to the closed-loop drum drive motors. The electronic controls section breaks down CAN-Bus signals and BEM Evib-meter diagnostics, while full wiring diagrams cover the machine's complete electrical circuits. You will find precise assembly specifications directly from the manufacturer, like the 13.6 - 20.3 Nm tightening torque for 5/8" O-ring sealed fittings. A dead machine means the whole paving train waits and the asphalt cools before it passes density. Download this bookmarked digital reference, print the flushing schematics you need, and take them right to the drum where they can get covered in grease while you clear the fault.

Bomag BW 174 AP, BW 174 ACP Common Problems This Manual Covers
Bomag BW 174 AP and ACP engine cranks slowly or will not start on cold mornings.
Inspect the air intake system and battery connections before tearing into the fuel lines. If cleaning the air filter element, regulate your shop air to max. 5 bar to protect the media. Verify filter replacement intervals on page 44 require a new safety cartridge at least every 2 years.
Manual Section: Engine p. 44Roller drops amplitude mid-pass with weak or completely missing drum vibration output.
Test the electrical feed to the vibration control valves if the drum stops packing. Check the fuse ratings on page 731; several vibration-circuit fuses there read 5A. If the circuit holds, confirm the exciter motor is reaching its rated frequency, listed under Technical Data on page 31.
Manual Section: Technical Data p. 31Hydraulic travel circuit stalls under load or the machine will not propel properly.
Check the high-pressure relief valves on the travel pump if the roller refuses to move. Pull the suspect valve and inspect the seats. When reinstalling, apply a high-pressure valve torque of exactly 250 Nm as shown on page 496.
Manual Section: Suppliers Documentation p. 496Water spray system runs dry on the mat with clogged nozzles or ineffective drum coverage.
Drain the tank and inspect the inline water filter before the asphalt sticks to the drums. Inspect the electrical pump relays and check the fuse ratings on page 731 for the water-pump circuit; several read 10A. Clean all scraper bars and nozzles with shop air regulated below max. 5 bar.
Manual Section: Circuit Diagrams p. 731Frequently Asked Questions
