All 220 pages of this Vibromax 255, 265 Service Manual (OEM #SM61005) cover one job: getting your Tandem Vibratory Roller back to factory spec. Inside: wiring diagrams for every circuit from the emergency stop to the hazard and directional system, plus relay and fuse location charts so you can trace a fault without chasing wires blind. You also get hydraulic schematics for the propulsion, vibration, and steering circuits, each backed by a dedicated diagnostics section, along with drum drive disassembly, vibratory shaft R&I, and parking brake procedures. Max propulsion pump delivery checks at 18 GPM; confirm steering work pressure is under 140 bar (2030 psi) before the roller goes back on grade. Every hour it sits idle costs money. Bookmarked and keyword-searchable, open it on your tablet, walk to the machine, and start wrenching.

Vibromax 255, 265 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Vibromax 255 vibratory function stops unexpectedly after 30 minutes of use p. 107
Test the hydraulic pressure at the test ports. Verify the vibration system relief valves setting is exactly 180 bar (2600 PSI) as outlined on page 107. Inspect the hydraulic oil filter for contamination and replace the vibratory motor shaft seal with part number 02773/10513 if leakage is present.
Manual Section: Vibration System DiagnosticsSteering feels sluggish or completely fails to turn on uneven terrain p. 111
Measure the steering circuit pressure. Verify the steering work pressure maximum reaches 140 bar (2030 psi) on page 111. If pressure drops below specifications, inspect the steering cylinder for internal bypass or mechanical binding. Adjust the port safety reliefs to 200 bar (2900 psi) if necessary.
Manual Section: Steering System DiagnosticsMachine lacks travel power and propulsion charge pressure drops significantly when moving forward or in reverse p. 101
Inspect the propulsion pump charge relief valve pressure on page 101. Verify it holds at 20 bar (290 PSI) during operation. Check the propulsion pump maximum delivery to ensure it outputs 18 gallons per minute. Drain the system and replace the primary hydraulic filter if delivery flow is restricted.
Manual Section: Propulsion System DiagnosticsOperator platform vibrates excessively and roll over protective structure frame mounts rattle during normal operation p. 201
Inspect the roll over protective structure for compression, bending, or visible cracks. Torque all ROPS mounting bolts to exactly 140 ft. lbs. (190 Nm) as specified on page 201. Check the seat belt mounts and replace any notched or fatigued hardware before returning the machine to service.
Manual Section: ROPS Damage InspectionFrequently Asked Questions
What are the torque specifications for the tandem drum mounting bolts on Vibromax 265?
For the Vibromax 265, the tandem drum mounting bolts, specifically the eight M16x40 capscrews (item #35) with lock washers (item #42) used for the right and left drum support brackets (items #2 & #3), should be torqued to 140 ft lbs (190 Nm) during installation.
How do you fix vibromax 255 vibratory function stops unexpectedly after 30 minutes of use and throws code EC-101?
Test the hydraulic pressure at the test ports. Verify the vibration system relief valves setting is exactly 180 bar (2600 PSI) as outlined on page 107. Inspect the hydraulic oil filter for contamination and replace the vibratory motor shaft seal with part number 02773/10513 if leakage is present.
How do you fix steering feels sluggish or completely fails to turn on uneven terrain with error code EC-205?
Measure the steering circuit pressure. Verify the steering work pressure maximum reaches 140 bar (2030 psi) on page 111. If pressure drops below specifications, inspect the steering cylinder for internal bypass or mechanical binding. Adjust the port safety reliefs to 200 bar (2900 psi) if necessary.
How do you fix machine lacks travel power and propulsion charge pressure drops significantly when moving forward or in reverse?
Inspect the propulsion pump charge relief valve pressure on page 101. Verify it holds at 20 bar (290 PSI) during operation. Check the propulsion pump maximum delivery to ensure it outputs 18 gallons per minute. Drain the system and replace the primary hydraulic filter if delivery flow is restricted.
