When the charge control lamp lights halfway through a lift and nobody on the crew knows whether to keep rolling, this Bomag BW 213 D-4 operator manual PDF settles it: 102 factory pages, OEM ID 008 124 31, covering the single drum roller from pre-start checks to troubleshooting. Maintenance takes up close to half the book, walking your crew through engine oil, water separator, hydraulic and coolant levels, then on to oil changes in the drive axle, wheel hubs, and vibration bearings. Control and indicator descriptions map every switch and lamp on the panel, and the operation chapter covers jump starting, towing after an engine failure, and transport. Torque wheel nuts to 550 Nm in a cross pattern, and test the battery against its 12.6 V full-charge reference before you condemn the starter. One missing interval can park a roller mid-pass. Bookmarked and text-indexed, the PDF lands you on the right section in two taps.

Bomag BW 213 D-4 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Bomag BW 213 D-4 travel sluggish and vibration weak, drum drive stalls under load on the lift
Check the hydraulic oil level in the inspection glass on the tank before anything else; the system holds 60 litres of oil. Inspect every hose, line, and fitting for wet spots or drips, and fix leaks before topping up. Clean the hydraulic oil cooler fins with compressed air per page 61, then run a slow test pass with vibration on.
Manual Section: Checking the Hydraulic Oil Level p. 59Engine loses power under load, runs rough or smokes climbing the ramp
Start at the fuel level gauge; the tank holds 340 litres and a low tank starves the pickup on grades. Drain water from the separator following the procedure on page 57, then inspect the fuel pre-filter for dirt. Service the combustion air filter per page 87 and replace the safety element if it is over 2 years old.
Manual Section: Engine Troubleshooting p. 97Engine temperature climbing and hydraulic oil running hot after a few passes in dusty conditions
Shut down and let the engine idle briefly to cool before opening the hood. Clean the cooling fins on the engine and hydraulic oil cooler with compressed air per page 61, working from the fan side out. Check the coolant level per page 59 and top up; the system takes 16 litres. In cohesive soil, clean the fins every shift.
Manual Section: Clean the Cooling Fins on Engine and Hydraulic Oil Cooler p. 61Engine cranks slowly or will not turn over after the machine sits overnight
Test open-circuit voltage across the battery poles: 12.6 V is fully charged, and anything under 12.25 V needs a recharge before you blame the starter. Clean the poles and clamps, coat them with pole grease, and check clamp tightness per page 67. If it still cranks slowly, jump-start with jump wires as described in the Operation section.
Manual Section: Service the Battery p. 67Machine bounces on the mat and steers loose, rear tires look soft
Gauge each tire and inflate to 1.4 bar; uneven pressures make a smooth drum wander on the mat. Fit the dust caps back on the valves when done. If a wheel came off recently, retighten the wheel nuts in a cross pattern to 550 Nm using the tightening torques table on page 93.
Manual Section: Checking the Tire Pressure p. 61Frequently Asked Questions
What are the replacement specifications for the engine oil filter cartridge?
The engine oil filter cartridges should be changed every 500 operating hours. When installing, tighten the new filter cartridges by hand until the seal contacts, then tighten for another half turn. p. 64
What are the replacement specifications for the fuel filter cartridge?
The fuel filter cartridge should be replaced every 500 operating hours. After installation, fill the new cartridge with clean diesel fuel, tighten by hand until the seal contacts, and then tighten for another half turn. p. 66
What is the correct valve clearance for the engine?
The intake valve clearance is 0.3 mm and the exhaust valve clearance is 0.5 mm. These checks should be performed every 1000 operating hours with the engine cooled down for at least 30 minutes. p. 74
What is the tightening torque for the wheel nuts?
The wheel nuts must be tightened in a cross-type pattern to a torque of 550 Nm (405 ft. lb.). p. 92
What is the required oil capacity for the drive axle?
The drive axle requires approximately 9.5 litres of gear oil (API-class GL5, SAE 90). p. 52
