Description
The new development of the Rammax 1515 is based on many
years of experience gained in the development and design of
vibratory trench rollers. The enormous degree of operating con-
venience, which provides both for cable and infrared control,
enables the user to use the machine in a exible way. The
hard-wearing, compact design offers a high degree of security
even in the most difcult terrain. The Rammax 1515 is tted
with hydrostatic steering, vibration and drive. The machine
is extremely maintenance friendly (with the exception of the
diesel engine), no V-belts, drive belts, lubrication nipples or
shiftable clutches are used. Most modern control electronics,
as well as the proven 8 strippers for the drums characterise
this machine.
Areas of application
The Rammax 1515 vibratory trench roller is a roller especially
designed for trench compaction. The complete lack of side
walls on the drum enables compaction right up to the trench
wall also in very small and narrow trenches. Wet, clay-based
soils in canalisation, pipeline construction, road substructure
and construction backlls, etc., are the applications that this
modern trench roller can be used for.
The infrared control also permits driving underneath bracings
when constructing trenches. During dangerous construction-
site operations, it is possible for the operator to control the
machine from a safe distance and not to expose himself to
hazards.
Intended use
The machine is exclusively conceived for the compaction of
loose backll, such as earth, gravel, or sand, as well as mix-
tures of these. The machine may not be used on hard, already
compacted or frozen soils.
Workplace
The proper work area for the machine operator depends on
the manner of operation: With manual control the machine
operator’s intended work area is at the rear of the machine
within the effective range of the OFF switch handle.
With remote control, the proper work area is at the rear of the
machine in a radius of 2 to 20 metres.
