Safety Information
Safety Information
Safety is of the utmost importance when operating turf
equipment.
To ensure safe operation of the RB48-11A Roll ‘n’ Spike
Golf Green Roller, please follow the following safety
guidelines.
• Always make a pre-operation inspection before you
start the engine. If this procedure is not carried out
damage to property or personnel may occur.
• Keep children, pets and inexperienced personnel
away from the machine. This machine should only be
operated by trained and skilled personnel - check with
your supervisor if you are unsure.
• Know how to stop the engine when in motion. Read
and understand engine manufacturers manual, as
supplied.
• Never permit inexperienced operators to use the
machine. This machine requires certain knowledge
and expertise to operate it; you must be a trained
person to use this machine. Unskilled persons can
harm themselves and others if they operate this
machine.
• When lifting/raising the seat, always tilt it completely
forwards until the base makes contact with the limit
stops on the frame. Doing this reduces the risk of the
seat falling backwards.
• Do not use in enclosed areas unless well ventilated.
Carbon monoxide gases are dangerous if inhaled, it
can cause death; use the machine outdoors.
• When transporting the roller, make sure the trailer
lock down mechanism is secure to prevent premature
release of the catch.
If the trailer catch is not correctly engaged while
towing and releases accidentally, the front of the
roller can drop and come in contact with the ground,
causing the machine to move dangerously in any
direction, this could cause bodily injury.
When carrying out maintenance ensure the catch is
engaged correctly; if it is not the trailer arm could y
up making contact with a person(s) causing serious
injury.
• This machine is equipped with a Safety
Interlock System.
This operates similar to Ride On Mowers where if the
operator attempts to leave the seat while the engine is
running and has not fully engaged the parking brake
the engine will stop.
• When engine is running, always keep hands and
loose clothing away from rotating shafts, chains and
sprockets in the transmission area.
If hair, clothing or loose objects become entangled
on a rotating shaft serious bodily injury could occur.
Stop engine before opening safety cover tted to the
transmission area.
Never ride on the machine when machine is being towed.
Operator: remember it is your responsibility to be aware
of your surroundings.
To avoid accidents, think safe and operate safe.
When stopping and before getting o the
machine always apply the Park Brake.

Assembly
Assembly Procedure
Step 1: Mounting the seat to the seat base.
• Fit the armrests to the seat pan using the supplied screws,
make sure the screws are all tightened.
• Place the assembled seat on the seat base plate and use
the four /” x ³/” UNC bolts supplied to fasten the seat to
the seat base.
Step 2: Mount the steering joystick to the steering shaft.
• Select the steering joystick.
• Slide the joystick into the slot on the top of the steering
shaft, already installed in the steering column directly in
front of the foot pedal controls, insert the ³/” bolt into the
bottom bolt hole, select a comfortable operating position,
joystick forward for extra operating room or back for less,
once determined insert the other ³/” bolt into the upper
hole and tighten both bolts securely.
Step 3: Attaching the left-hand trailer arm to machine
body.
• Locate the trailer arm support axle 30mm in diameter (1/”)
which extends out on the left side of the machine, remove
the circlip from the support axle. Oil machined portion.
Slide the left hand side trailer arm, onto the axle, replace
the circlip, ensuring the circlip is located in the groove
correctly.
Step 4: Attaching dampener strut and right hand trailer arm.
• Locate the trailer arm support axle 30mm in diameter
(1/”) which extends out on the right side of the machine,
remove the circlip from the axle. Hold the right side trailer
arm in the vertical position and slide it part way onto the
axle. Locate dampener strut, remove packing from the
unattached end.
• Apply thread lock “Loctite” to the M10 bolt attached to
the dampener strut. Screw the M10 bolt into the strut
support on the trailer arm.
• If necessary use a soft headed hammer and tap the
trailer arm onto the axle until the circlip groove is
revealed, t the circlip, ensuring it is located in the
groove correctly.
Step 5: Attaching draw bar to trailer arms.
• Locate the draw bar assembly.
• Gather the ends of the right and left trailer arms.
• Place the draw bar assembly between the trailer arms
and align the holes, ensure the bend is upwards.
• Place one 2/” x /” bolt through each hole, t /”
Nyloc nut to each bolt and tighten securely.
• Test to ensure the trailer catch is correctly locking the
trailer arms in the down position and the catch locking
pin ts correctly when transporting the roller, for
safety.
Step 6: Attaching wheels to trailer arms.
• Locate the two wheels for the left and right side trailer
arms.
• Check tires for the correct air pressure, approximately
18psi. Do not exceed this pressure. The tires act as the
suspension, hence the low P.S.I.
• Remove wheel nuts from both hubs, slide wheels onto
hub with air valves facing outwards. Replace wheel
nuts and tighten securely.
• Ensure the taper on the nuts, mate into the wheel
tapers correctly.

Assembly
Step 7: Correct dampener strut operation
• When the roller is in the trailing position:
1. carefully hold the draw bar assembly,
2. lower machine until the front rests on the ground,
3. release the locking catch,
4. gently with a rm grip begin to raise the draw bar,
5. when it has travelled suciently the dampener strut
will take over and prevent the trailer arms rapidly
rotating on it’s axle, allowing the roller to lower to
the surface gently.
Step 8: Replace engine oil
• A tag is placed on the engine’s On/O switch
indicating you must ll the machine with oil prior
to operation. Low oil level will cause the engine to
stop on steep hills, the engine cut o safety switch is
designed this way to protect the engine from damage
if low in oil.
• The oil in the engine upon delivery (if not pre-
delivered) is to prevent the inside of the engine from
corroding, replace it with the correct engine oil, as per
the manufacturers specications.
Step 9: Transmission oil tank breather.
• Unscrew the plastic plug if tted from the top of
the tank and replace it with the anti-splash breather
supplied.
Seal damage and oil leakage will occur if the breather
is not installed.
If this is not done damage to the seals in the
transmission will occur.
Step 10: Lubricate smoothing head pivot bearings.
• There is a grease nipple or zirk located on both
smoothing head centre ball joint swivels.
Apply grease to lubricate ttings.
• When rolling of the green is completed, move the
roller onto the fringe, stop the engine, lock the trailer
into the towing position, connect it to the towing
vehicle then move o to the next green to be rolled.
Step 11. Check.
• Oil lter/housing for leaks & tightness.
• Check all oil line ttings for leaks & tightness.
• Check to ensure nothing is chang the oil lines, eg.
Transmission cover.
• Check bolts tted to the oil lter housing, for tightness.
Do not put the trailer down into the towing
position on the green; damage may occur to
the green from the roller tires and body.
Remember turn o the fuel cock whilst
towing the roller

Operation procedures
Operation procedures
Pre-operation checks
• Check engine as per Honda manual.
• Ensure steering joystick has no looseness.
• Check that foot pedal depresses under normal foot
pressure in both directions and returns to the neutral
position. (Similar resistance to a motor vehicle clutch).
If this action is not smooth, check the yoke and
transmission struts for correct operation.
• Ensure that the draw bar locking catch mechanism is
securely locked to the main draw bar and the safety
pin is tted when trailing the roller.
• Check and tighten grub screws tted to the end
bearing lock rings on the rubber coated drive roller
and the spiker shaft bearings & pivot bearings on each
smoothing head.
• Grease lightly bearings tted to drive roller, spiker
shaft and Smoothing Head pivot bearings. Replace
plastic caps if tted.
• Grease rod ends, sparingly.
• Check tire pressure for proper operating pressure
(18psi). Do not over inate.
• Check for oil and fuel leaks - rectify before using
machine.
• Lubricate the drive chain with a suitable chain
lubricant.
Standard operation procedures
• Inspect and check that the roller is serviceable prior to
departing from workshop.
• Use a suitable towing vehicle to move roller from
green to green.
• Maximum recommended towing speed would be
equal to a motorized golf buggy. Approximately
4mph/7kph. Towing at excess speed or across rough
terrain may cause damage to the machine and trailer.
• When approaching the green do not tow the roller
onto the green to set up, put the roller on the fringe
of the green. Put trailer in the up position, start up the
roller and drive it onto the green.
• Greens can be rolled in any direction; take care to
ensure there are no crease lines produced on the
surface.
• It is recommended that you place the smoothing head
rollers on the high side of the green when rolling.
This increases the weight on the rubber drive roller
and gives better traction, it also reduces slipping or
spinning of the drive roller on the green, depending
also on the operators ability.
Whilst becoming familiar with the roller, set the
throttle at about ¹/ - ³/ speed. Press the left or right
foot pedal down gently but not suddenly.
Be smooth with your action, hold in this position until
nearing the edge of the green, then take your foot
gently o the pedal, the roller will come to a stop.
Rest your other foot on the opposite pedal and gently
apply the pressure to the pedal.
It then starts to move the roller in the opposite
direction. Once again be gentle with the pedal, but not
sudden.
By using the left and right pedal in this manner, will
ensure there is no damage to the green and less wear
and tear on the equipment and operator.
• The correct procedure for rolling the green is:
(a) Select the correct direction to roll the green,
remember this roller can roll the greens in all
directions.
(b) Start on one side of the green and work your
way across the green in a zigzag fashion, slightly
overlapping each lap you roll: this makes sure you
don’t miss any part of the green and all of the
green is rolled. Avoid coming back across the green
to roll missed areas if possible. You should be able
to complete the rolling of 18 greens in the same
time or quicker than by mowing using a triplex
mower.

Operation procedures
Points to remember
• Make sure the roller is serviceable before rolling.
• Start rolling from the fringe of the green.
• Smooth operation on the foot pedals.
• Pick a point on the other side of the green to roll to.
• Do not look at the green close to the roller; it makes it
dicult to steer the roller straight; look well ahead.
• Use 1/2 throttle until you are procient at operating
the roller.
• Once you choose your rolling line hold the joystick
steady, correcting direction gently as required.
• Move the steering joystick a little at a time to change
direction; excessive movement of the joystick makes it
dicult to maintain a straight line.
• Roll in straight lines.
• Do not leave the engine running with the roller parked
on the green; the engine vibration will cause roller
depression marks on the green.
• Move o the green when rolling is complete before
putting the trailer in the down position.
• When rolling steep greens and the engine stops, check
engine oil level. The engine is tted with a safety
switch; when the engine oil level is low the engine will
stop.
When stopping and before getting o the
machine always apply the Park Brake.
• When rolling of the green is completed, move the
roller onto the fringe, stop the engine, lock the trailer
into the towing position, connect it to the towing
vehicle then move o to the next green to be rolled.
Do not put the trailer down into the towing position
on the green; damage may occur to the green from
the roller tires and body.
• Remember turn o the fuel cock whilst towing the
roller.
This machine is equipped with a Safety Interlock
System.
This operates similar to Ride On Mowers where if the
operator attempts to leave the seat while the engine is
running and has not fully engaged the parking brake the
engine will stop.
Park brake
• The park brake lever operates on an over centre
principal.
• To engage the park brake, pull the park brake lever
fully up and back.
• The park brake lever will remain in this ON position.
• To disengage the park brake, push the park brake lever
fully forward and down.
• The park brake lever will remain in this OFF position.
• Always operate the roller with the park brake OFF.
Caution: Do not operate the roller with the park brake
engaged as this will damage park brake components.
Starting the Engine
The engine will not start unless the Park Brake lever is in
the fully engaged or On position.
Refer to the included Honda user manual for correct
engine starting and running procedure.

Maintenance
Maintenance
• Stop engine before performing any maintenance.
• Service the Honda engine according to the
manufacturers maintenance schedule.
Removing / Replacing Transmission Cover
WARNING! The engine must be stopped before
performing the following procedure.
To remove the transmission cover.
• Insert the key supplied with the machine into the latch
at the rear of the transmission cover.
• Rotate the key counterclockwise (to the left)
until it stops, there will be some initial resistance
encountered, this is normal.
• Lift the rear of the transmission cover up
enough to clear the latch bracket, then carefully slide
the transmission cover towards the rear until it stops.
• Before lifting the transmission cover away check the
locating pin at the front of the transmission cover is
clear of the rubber grommet in the transmission cover.
To replace the transmission cover.
• Lower the transmission cover over the transmission
and onto the body.
To prevent the transmission cover making contact with
the locating pin while lowering the transmission cover
ensure the front inside of the transmission cover is
held against the front of the engine coupling.
• After the transmission cover is lowered, slide it
forward and at the same time check the locating pin is
aligning with the rubber grommet at the front of the
transmission cover, continue to slide it forward until it
stops.
• Lift the rear of the transmission cover up to clear
the latch bracket and at the same time slide the
transmission cover forward. Now lower the rear of the
transmission cover onto the body.
• Insert the key supplied with the machine into the latch
at the rear of the transmission cover.
• Rotate the key clockwise (to the right) until it stops,
there will be some resistance encountered in the last
stage of rotating the key, this is normal.
It is essential that eort is applied to overcome
the latch resistance as this is the point at which
the latch mechanism pulls the transmission cover
down slightly onto the body. This ensures the
transmission cover can not become loose.
Testing Park Brake
1. Stop the machine safely on level at ground &
engage the park brake.
2. Switch o & dismount from the machine.
3. Try to push the machine manually.
Result: Park brake must prevent machine from moving.
If machine moves, parking brake needs to be adjusted.
Adjust park brake by rotating the knob on the end of
the lever in a clockwise direction when looking directly
at the end of the lever.
Adjusting the Pedals
If the direction foot pedals become unbalanced for any
reason it can be adjusted as follows.
Remove the transmission cover.
It will be necessary to have the engine running while
performing this process, take care to keep all limbs
and clothing well away from the rotating shaft and
coupling.
• Using the correct spanner release the lock nut on
the gas strut.
• Rotate each strut to return the pedals to a central
position while at the same time ensuring that
the transmission is not engaging when in the
central neutral position.
• Reset the locknut after performing this procedure
to both struts.

Maintenance
Transmission (pump, Eaton 11)
• Initially, change the oil at 50 hours running time, then;
• Change oil every 500 hours or annually, whichever
occurs rst.
• Change hydraulic oil lter every 500 hours or annually,
whichever occurs rst.
• Only use the manufacturer’s recommended
replacement oil lter .
• When tting the lter, follow the instructions supplied
with the lter. This will ensure that the lter remains
tight and that no leaks occur.
• Check all hard line oil pipes for rubbing, excessive
vibration, leaks and tightness on a regular basis.
• Check transmission oil level on oil tank sight glass. Oil
level should remain at a minimum of 25mm (1”) and at
a maximum of 40mm (1.5”) from the top of the tank.
• Oil Capacity including lter is 6 liters or 5.3 U.S. quarts.
For the ultimate performance we use and recommend
the Penrite synthetic 5 SAE 5W-60 transmission oil.
(Part No. R5226)
Storing
• It is important to store this roller in the towing
position. This ensures the trailer strut is in the closed
position, protecting the shaft from corrosion, then
failure and also the weight is taken o the roller
bearings.
Service of the drive chain system
• Replacement - Some chains look a like, but they are
not, use only the chain and sprockets recommended
as per the correct spare parts number. Wrong pitch
drive chain tted will cause excessive sprocket wear
and possible drive failure.
• Tensioning the drive chain - No adjustment is required;
the chain tension is automatically adjusted.
Lubrication
• Lubricate drive chain with a chain lube such as
Molykote, Innox or ChunkaRocol ITW. Spray on the
inside of the chain so that the lubricant is forced into
each roller and around each pin prior to rolling of the
Greens.
Service of smoothing roller bearings
• Whilst the Roller is suspended by the Trailer, check
operational smoothness of the bearings tted to each
smoothing roller by rotating the rollers by hand. If
bearing tightness, roughness or excessive looseness is
detected, replace the faulty bearings.
• If bearings are faulty
(a) Remove the complete smoothing head unit
assembly from the machine, undo the four swivel
mount bolts on the upper body and disconnect the
steering rod, wheel the roller away until the total
head assembly is exposed to work on.
(b) Remove roller shaft bolts from end plates, remove
rollers from the heads.
(c) Fit new bearings, replace rollers into the heads,
lubricate shaft bolts with an anti seize compound
before installing them. Tighten securely and ensure
rollers rotate freely when fully tightened.
or
If the rollers are a sealed type remove the roller and
replace with a complete new roller.
(d) If the connecting rods are removed or lengths
altered ensure they are correctly adjusted so that
the three heads are parallel to each other when in
the straight ahead position. Adjust if necessary
