I was wondering if anyone running the Hamm HC200i has been having any issues with the carrier bearing on the left side? They say you don't have to change the oil and that is a non-serviceable part, and it gets its oil from the vibrator oil. But when you drain the oil, it is burnt black, and the vibrator oil isn't that bad. We have 4 machines, and we have lost all 4 carrier bearings and everything else that it destroys in the process. There excuse is we are over compacting.
LMAO @ over-compacting. Whatever the manufacturers oil change hours recommended for that.............half it.
