Hello guys,

I recently bought a Galion S4-6A roller. I bought it for sod runway maintenance. It runs like a champ.

Here's what I know about it:

Smooth drum
4 tons with no ballast, 6 tons with ballast.
Waukesha VR155G engine, 29hp
Serial number is 59364, that leads me to think it is a 1980 model.

I've been looking on the interweb for maintenance manuals. I have found a few on Ebay, but they sure are expensive, atleast they seem that way to me.

My main concern right now is finding the proper hydraulic oil for it. The oil that is in it now is red, and I don't want to take a chance on a guess when choosing the proper oil.

Any information that you folks can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Gil
