Overview
The MCM R1500 is a 1.5-ton ride-on double-drum roller with a 15 kW (20 hp) Honda petrol engine, 900 mm drums, 65 Hz vibration and a 100 L water tank, for paving, asphalt and sub-base work.
Compaction from the seat
The MCM R1500 is a 1 500 kg ride-on tandem roller with two vibrating 900 mm drums. A Honda GX630 engine of 15 kW (20 hp) drives the hydraulics, and the operator rides instead of walking behind, so long runs of paving and asphalt go faster and with less fatigue.
Specifications
- Operating weight: 1 500 kg
- Engine: Honda GX630, 15 kW (20 hp)
- Drums: two, Ø560 × 900 mm
- Vibration frequency: 65 Hz; amplitude 0.6 mm
- Centrifugal force: 30 kN
- Travel speed: 0–8 km/h; gradeability 30%
- Water tank: 100 L; hydraulic oil 60 L
- Steering: hydraulic
Jobs it suits
Paving beds, asphalt patching and driveways, parking areas, footpaths, sports courts and the base layers under slabs. The water system keeps the drums wet so hot asphalt does not stick.
