Why is my road roller vibrating too much?

Excessive vibration can be caused by:

  • Vibration frequency set too high for the material – reduce the setting
  • Damaged vibration bearings – needs replacement
  • Unbalanced eccentric weight – internal mechanical problem
  • Low engine speed – check throttle and fuel system

Solutions:
First, lower the vibration setting. If the problem continues, stop using vibration and call a mechanic. Running a roller with bad bearings can cause serious damage.
