MULTIQUIP MRH-800DS STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Multiquip MRH-800DS is a compact, walk-behind static smooth drum roller designed for precise soil and asphalt compaction in tight and confined areas. It features a 25.6-inch wide steel drum and an operating width of 27.2 inches, providing efficient compaction performance with a vibration frequency of 3300 vibrations per minute (vpm). Powered by a reliable Yanmar air-cooled diesel engine delivering 8.7 HP, the unit integrates a hydraulic motor drive system enabling smooth, variable speed control up to 158 feet per minute. The roller exerts an impact force of 5,300 pounds, making it suitable for leveling and uniformly compacting voids between soil particles to increase dry density in trench backfilling, pipeline installation, and asphalt patching operations. Additional features include a 10.6-quart water tank for drum sprinkling to prevent material adhesion, dual front and rear drum scrapers, and oil-bath lubricated bearings for reduced maintenance. The unit weighs approximately 1,562 pounds, designed with large rubber shock mounts to minimize vibration transfer to the engine and hydraulic components, enhancing operator comfort and machine longevity. Its narrow profile, with less than one-inch side clearance, facilitates maneuvering in restrictive spaces. The MRH-800DS also incorporates easy access maintenance covers, external vibrator assembly for serviceability, a foldable guide handle for transport and storage, and safety controls including a deadman stop feature.
