JCB Vibromax VM 132–200 D/PD Series Common Problems This Manual Covers
JCB Vibromax VM 132 D/PD vibrating excessively during transit and wheel lug nuts loosening after rough terrain use p. 84
Inspect the wheels and verify tyre pressure is between 0.9 to 1.4 bar as shown on page 21. Torque all wheel nuts to the specified 560 to 600 Nm rating. Check for transport damage and review storage procedures on page 84 if the machine sits idle.
Manual Section: Storing the MachineTotal loss of drive motion requiring emergency recovery and manual bypass of the hydraulic drive system p. 53
Open the multiple-function valve to disengage the brake system for transport as shown on page 53. After towing, reset the system and torque the bypass screw to 40 Nm. Torque the multiple-function valve main body to 90 Nm as directed on page 92 to prevent fluid leaks.
Manual Section: Towing the MachineHeavy mud buildup on the smooth drum shell and scraping noises during forward or reverse travel p. 22
Clean the smooth drum shell and inspect the Vulcollan scraper blades for excessive wear. Replace damaged scraper components and torque the drum scraper screws to 185 to 197 Nm. Verify the vibration stage frequency reaches 1740 rpm (29Hz) using the performance specifications found on page 22.
Manual Section: Technical DataEngine temperature indicator light flashing on the console and coolant levels dropping during extended machine operation p. 21
Check the engine cooling system and inspect hoses for visible leaks before every shift. Fill the system to the full 19 l coolant capacity. Verify the engine operating speed remains steady at 2200 rpm as shown on page 21 to prevent overheating under heavy load conditions.
Manual Section: Technical DataFrequently Asked Questions
How to reset the hydraulic system alarm on a JCB Vibromax VM 132 – 200 D / PD?
The hydraulic oil filter warning light comes on if the hydraulic oil filter element is clogged. To clear this warning, the filter element should be changed. The manual specifies changing the filter element if the warning light illuminates, or every 1000 hours of operation, or annually, whichever comes first (page 75).
How to reset the parking brake warning on a JCB Vibromax roller?
The parking brake warning light comes on when the parking brake is engaged and the ignition key is in the ON position. To clear the warning, the parking brake must be disengaged by pushing the parking brake switch into the DISENGAGE (RELEASE) position. If the parking brake is engaged and the machine is started, a horn will also sound (page 36).

Document Quality
This document is a scanned PDF, and while it includes an OCR layer, the text is not fully selectable or copyable on all pages. The text quality is generally crisp and easy to read throughout the manual. Diagrams and illustrations are raster images (photos or scanned drawings), but their labels are mostly readable, though some smaller text in diagrams on pages like 31 and 65 can be a bit blurry upon closer inspection. The pages are clean with no significant scan artifacts, stains, or skewed content. You will find a few blank pages (e.g., pages 9, 29, 55) which serve as filler.
