Why do the augers on my Terex Bid-Well 4800 Construction Equipment slow or stop?
- A
  Austin MillsSep 8, 2025
  If the augers on your Terex Construction Equipment slow or stop, but the roller functions normally under load, it could be due to several reasons: * The auger is overloaded with concrete. Reduce the amount of concrete in front of the augers. * The auger motor is damaged or worn. Replace the auger motor. * A hydraulic hose quick disconnect is malfunctioning. Replace the quick disconnect.

  If your Terex Construction Equipment experiences a loss in speed and/or power, or has no hydraulic power, the hydraulic oil level in the tank may be low. Add hydraulic oil until it is within two inches of the top of the tank.

Why is the drag pan leaving an indentation on the Terex Construction Equipment?
- G
  Gregory LarsonAug 26, 2025
  If the drag pan on your Terex Construction Equipment is leaving an indentation on the surface at the curb line or slab edge, it could be due to several reasons: * Too much weight on the drag pan. Remove some or all of the added weight from the pan. * The pan is not being pulled straight. Adjust and hook the chains, ensuring they are hooked the same number of links from the pan. * The pan is being pulled at a point too high. Adjust the height of the hanger frame to approximately 6 inches from the grade.

Why does the finish from the rollers on my Terex Bid-Well 4800 Construction Equipment look like a washboard?
- T
  Tracy FosterAug 28, 2025
  If the finish coming from the rollers on your Terex Construction Equipment looks like a washboard, with possible vibration on the lower paving carriage, the auger shaft may be bent, or the augers may be out of balance. Alternatively, one or more slide blocks on the lower carriage frame may not be contacting the skew ring on the upper carriage. Remove the augers and inspect the shafts for straightness. Attach the augers and check for visual imbalance. Tighten the center pivot bolt so the slide blocks contact the skew ring, still allowing skewing if a skew cylinder is used.

Why is my Terex Bid-Well 4800 leaving a pitted surface?
- K
  kari93Sep 9, 2025
  If the paving rollers on your Terex Construction Equipment are leaving an open or pitted surface and there is no concrete on the side of the leading roller, the augers may be set too low, removing too much concrete. Raise the augers to leave a golf ball size of concrete at the front end of the leading roller.

Why is the paving roller on my Terex Bid-Well 4800 not skewing properly?
- M
  Michael ThomasSep 6, 2025
  If the paving roller on your Terex Construction Equipment does not skew in the proper direction, but is spinning correctly, the hydraulic lines to the hydraulic skew cylinder may be improperly connected. Reverse the hoses leading to the hydraulic skew cylinder.

Why does the paving roller on my Terex Bid-Well 4800 stop under load?
- A
  Andrew PriceSep 4, 2025
  If the paving roller on your Terex Construction Equipment does not operate or stops under load, but the relief valve is okay and the augers operate normally, the roller motor may be damaged or worn, or the reversing valve may have developed internal damage. Replace the motor and the reversing valve.
