New Belle TDX 650 Diesel Twin Drum Roller

Description

Altrad Belle TDX 650 Twin Drum Roller

The Altrad Belle TDX 650 is a walk-behind twin drum roller for soil and asphalt, with 650mm wide drums and an air-cooled Yanmar diesel engine. Hydrostatic drive gives smooth, responsive control in both directions, making it a practical roller for footpaths, trench reinstatement and small surfacing jobs.

Hydrostatic Drive Drive is hydrostatic, so the operator controls speed progressively in forward and reverse rather than through a clutch and gearbox. Forward speed runs up to 3.9km/h and reverse up to 2.1km/h, and a parking brake holds the machine when stopped.

Built for Asphalt A 65-litre water tank with an external gauge feeds front and rear sprinkler bars that are removable and anti-corrosive, keeping the drums wet so asphalt does not pick up. Self-cleaning, adjustable scraper bars keep the drum faces clean, and a drain on the water tank helps prevent frost damage over winter.

Close to Edges The drums give wall clearance on both sides with no overhang, so the roller can work tight against kerbs, walls and edgings. That matters on footways and reinstatements, where the edges are often the hardest part to compact.

Typical Applications Its size and walk-behind layout make the TDX 650 a good fit for contractors and hire fleets working on:

• Asphalt: footpaths, drives and patch repairs
• Trench reinstatement: surface courses over utility trenches
• Sub-base: granular layers ahead of surfacing
• Landscaping: paths and hard areas in confined sites

Servicing and Transport Remote oil drain and fill points, plus easy air cleaner access, keep routine servicing quick. The handle folds and locks for transport, there is a central lifting eye and four strapping points, and the diesel fill flap is lockable. Key switch protection is fitted, and the engine has electric start with a recoil back-up. Belle also lists an optional hour meter for the TDX 650, which helps with service intervals on hire fleets.
