UP FOR AUCTION IS A 2001 CATERPILLAR MODEL CS-563D ROLLER COMPACTOR. THIS PIECE OF EQUIPMENT STARTS, RUNS AND MOVES UNDER IT'S OWN POWER. WE COULD NOT GET THE VIBRATING DRUM FUNCTION TO WORK. THE ENGINE SOUNDS GOOD WITH NO NOTICEABLE ODD NOISES. THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTHLY AND THE MACHINE MOVES FORWARD AND REVERSE. WE ACQUIRED THIS PIECE OF EQUIPMENT IN JUNE OF 2018 AND THE HOUR METER SHOWED 223 HOURS. IT HAS BEEN USED VERY LITTLE SINCE THEN. THE DIGITAL DISPLAY FOR THE HOUR METER IS NOT CURRENTLY READABLE. THE SEAT CUSHIONS NEED TO BE REPLACED. THERE IS A HYDRAULIC LEAK AT THE FRONT CYLINDER. OVERALL THIS MACHINE APPEARS TO BE IN PRETTY GOOD CONDITION. AS WITH ANY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT, THERE COULD BE UNKNOWN REPAIRS THAT MIGHT NEED TO BE MADE TO MAKE IT FULLY FUNCTIONAL. YOU ARE PURCHASING THIS ITEM AS IS WITH NO WARRANTY OR GUARANTY OF ANY KIND.
