Everything the operator of a BW 213 needs, from pre-start checks to reading out faults on the BVC, sits in the 166 pages of this Bomag BW 213 DH-4 operator manual PDF, OEM 008 044 61, covering the PDH-4 padfoot version too. The Variocontrol section explains every line and bar diagram on the EVIB display, so a measuring pass over the lift ends with printed compaction data instead of guesswork. Maintenance fills roughly a third of the book: fuels and lubricants tables, the service chart, and the checks you run from the drive axle down to the Vario exciter oil. Set intake valve clearance to 0.4 mm, exhaust to 0.6 mm, and know the engine kills itself ten seconds after the oil pressure lamp flashes. When the roller quits mid-pass, there's no one to ask. Print the pages you need and let them get greasy on your bench; bookmarks handle the rest on screen.

Bomag BW 213 DH-4, BW 213 PDH-4 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Bomag BW 213 DH-4 engine loses power on the pass and struggles to hold travel speed
Check the water separator and drain any water before blaming the engine. Inspect the fuel filter; paraffin separation in cold weather clogs it fast. Work through the engine troubleshooting steps starting on page 152, then refill from a clean supply. The tank holds 340 litres, and running it low invites condensation and sediment.
Manual Section: Trouble Shooting p. 152Warning light flashes during compaction and the engine shuts down on its own
Check which lamp flashed before you restart; the machine is protecting itself. Low engine oil pressure or low coolant level shuts the engine down after 10 seconds, overheating or a contaminated hydraulic oil filter after 2 minutes (page 25). Top up oil or coolant to the correct mark, then get back in the pass.
Manual Section: Indicators and Controls p. 25Travel and vibration feel weak or erratic and the drum drive hesitates under load
Check the hydraulic oil level first; it should sit 3 cm below the upper edge of the inspection glass (page 134). Top up with the grade listed in the fuels and lubricants table, never mixed stock. The system holds only 60 litres, so a small leak drops it quickly; inspect hoses and fittings for wet spots.
Manual Section: Maintenance p. 134Coolant temperature climbs and hydraulic oil runs hot during long vibration work
Clean the engine and hydraulic oil cooler fins; dust and asphalt film block airflow fast on road jobs. Check the coolant level with the engine cold and top up as needed; the cooling system holds 16 litres (page 99). Keep idling spells under 10 minutes and recheck temperatures on the next pass.
Manual Section: Maintenance p. 99Ribbed V-belt squeals at startup and the charge control light stays on
Check the ribbed V-belt for cracks and glazing, and against the 3 mm wear limit the book sets on page 125; replace the belt once it reaches that limit. The 10 to 15 mm deflection on page 118 is the refrigerant compressor V-belt's figure, not this belt's. If the charge control light still glows with the engine running, clean the battery terminals and check the main fuse.
Manual Section: Maintenance p. 125Frequently Asked Questions
How do I clear a vibration fault on a BOMAG BW 213 DH-4?
To clear stored faults, press the 'F8' button on the Variocontrol display. This action deletes all stored faults from the system. p. 37
What are the fuel filter replacement specifications for the Bomag BW 213 DH-4, BW 213 PDH-4?
The fuel filter cartridge should be replaced every 500 operating hours. When installing a new filter, fill it with clean diesel fuel, screw it on by hand until the seal contacts, and then tighten it for another half turn. p. 114
What are the replacement specifications for the engine oil filter on a Bomag BW 213 DH-4, BW 213 PDH-4?
Engine oil and oil filter cartridges should be changed every 500 operating hours. When installing new cartridges, slightly oil the rubber seal and tighten them by hand until the seal contacts, then tighten for another half turn. p. 113
What is the correct valve clearance for the engine on the Bomag BW 213 DH-4, BW 213 PDH-4?
The intake valve clearance is 0.4 mm, and the exhaust valve clearance is 0.6 mm. These adjustments should be performed by trained personnel or after-sales service. p. 122
What is the wheel nut tightening torque on the Bomag BW 213 DH-4, BW 213 PDH-4 single drum roller?
The wheel nuts must be tightened in a cross-type pattern to a torque of 550 Nm (405 ft. lb.). p. 146
What do I get after purchasing this Bomag BW 213 DH-4 manual?
Instant PDF download. You get the full 166-page searchable Operator Manual immediately after payment. Open it on your laptop, tablet, or phone right in the shop.
Is this Bomag BW 213 DH-4 manual print-friendly?
