FERGUSON 35A STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Ferguson 35A Static Smooth Drum Roller is a compact and efficient compaction machine designed primarily for soil and asphalt work. It features a 42-inch-wide smooth drum, which enables consistent and uniform compaction over its operating width of 42 inches, making it well-suited for road, parking lot, and foundation work. The roller has an inside turning radius of 154 inches, facilitating tight maneuvering on job sites. Powered by a reliable John Deere diesel engine, specifically the 4024T model with a 4-cylinder, 149 CID displacement, it delivers approximately 49 horsepower at 2200 RPM. The hydrostatic drive system, coupled with power hydraulic steering, ensures smooth operation and precise control. Safety and operator comfort are emphasized with a low center of gravity, full compliance with OSHA standards, optimum operator visibility, and ergonomically placed controls. Additional features include front and rear drum scrapers, a 100-gallon water tank with a pressure spray sprinkler system to control dust during compaction, and durable hydrostatic filters. The machine boasts a welded plate and structural frame, hydrodynamic service brakes, and automatic disc-type parking brakes directly applied to the drum. Weighing around 12,080 lbs, the Ferguson 35A supports efficient compaction with reduced maintenance demands and a robust design that meets bid specifications and safety requirements. This makes it an ideal choice for contractors requiring a dependable smooth drum roller for medium-scale compaction tasks.
