Bomag wrote this operator manual, OEM number 008 119 31, for two single drum rollers, the smooth drum BW 211 D-4 and the padfoot BW 211 PD-4, and the PDF runs 102 pages from pre-start tests to the 2000 hour services. Maintenance takes up well over a third of the book: daily oil, coolant and hydraulic level checks, then the 250, 500, 1000 and 2000 hour intervals, with a fuels and lubricants table to match. Indicator and control descriptions, jump starting, towing after an engine failure, transport and an engine troubleshooting chapter fill out the rest. Keep compressed air under 5 bar when you blow out the combustion air filter, and replace the ribbed V-belt once wear passes 3 mm. Guess either figure and you shred a filter element or run a belt to failure. Bookmarks and a live text layer put the right page, and the right oil spec for your next order, one tap away.

Bomag BW 211 D-4, BW 211 PD-4 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Bomag BW 211 D-4 engine cranks but won't start on cold morning, fuel filter suspected
Check fuel level first; the tank holds 340 litres and empty tanks stop more rollers than plugged filters. Drain the water separator during the daily checks on page 54, then work through the engine troubleshooting table on page 97. In frost, switch to winter fuel before paraffin separation plugs the filter.
Manual Section: Trouble Shooting p. 97Engine temperature warning comes on during long vibration passes, gauge climbing fast
Shut the engine down and let it cool. Check coolant level; the system holds 16 litres. Clean packed dust from the cooling fins and hydraulic oil cooler per the 250 hour service on page 61, since a blinded cooler is the usual cause on dusty fills. If the gauge still climbs, run the engine troubleshooting steps on page 97.
Manual Section: 250-Hour Maintenance p. 61No vibration when switch is pressed, drum runs quiet on both amplitude settings
Verify the vibration switching procedure on page 37; amplitude preselection and the travel lever interlock catch out new operators. Check hydraulic oil level at the sight glass during the daily checks on page 54; the tank holds 60 litres. If both check out, book it for the service shop, that points to a wiring or pump fault.
Manual Section: Operation p. 37Parking brake will not hold the machine on a compacted ramp grade
Test the parking brake per the operating procedure on page 38 with the drum chocked. If the machine still creeps, have the brake adjusted per the as-required maintenance section starting on page 82 and keep it off grades until then. If towing off the mat, never exceed the 1 km/h towing speed limit on page 43.
Manual Section: 2000-Hour and As-Required Maintenance p. 82Oil pressure warning light comes on at idle after long uphill pass
Shut the engine down immediately, do not finish the pass. Check oil level on the dipstick and top up; the engine holds 10 litres. Inspect oil lines, filter, and cooler fittings for leaks. If the light stays on with a correct level, follow the engine troubleshooting table on page 97 before running again.
Manual Section: Trouble Shooting p. 97Frequently Asked Questions
What does the charge control light mean on a BOMAG BW 211 D-4 / PD-4?
The charge control light (d) means the battery is not being charged. If it comes on, check the V-belt and repair the generator if necessary. p. 23
How do I troubleshoot a BOMAG BW 211 D-4 / PD-4 that will not start?
If the engine does not start, check if the fuel tank is empty, the battery is discharged, or if the fuel filter is clogged. If the starter is defective or the injection system has issues, have the machine examined by a specialist. p. 97
What are the replacement specifications for the fuel filter?
The fuel filter cartridge should be changed every 500 operating hours. When installing, fill the new filter cartridge with clean diesel fuel and tighten the filter element for another half turn after the seal contacts. p. 65
What are the replacement specifications for engine oil filter cartridges?
Engine oil and oil filter cartridges should be changed every 500 operating hours. When installing new cartridges, turn them on by hand until the seal contacts, then tighten them for another half turn. p. 64
What is the correct valve clearance for the engine?
The valve clearance for the intake valve is 0.3 mm and for the exhaust valve is 0.5 mm. This check should be performed every 1000 operating hours with the engine cooled down for at least 30 minutes. p. 74
