The Speed Screed™ Roller (SSR) is a variable length triple tube roller system that allows users to easily swap rollers and extension frames between jobs that require different pour widths. With rollers and extensions available from 10’ to 32’ in single foot increments, almost any job can be easily handled with this machine.
A roller screed consists of mechanized seamless pipes that spin against the concrete as contractors drive the unit over form rails. Roller screeds do not vibrate the concrete, so if vibration is engineered into a project a contractor will have to perform vibration manually.
Rolling screeds are more effective than vibrating screeds for pervious paving, low slump concrete, and slope paving.
Vibratory Screeds do a slightly better job of leveling, but a considerably better job of consolidating.
Minimum length = 10 feet Maximum Length = 32 feet. Each of the three rollers utilize a bolting flange and are symmetrical which makes changing machine length quick and easy. The rollers can be orientated in either direction and can be mounted in any position. To replace or swap roller lengths follow the procedures listed in the Owners Manual.

Honda recommends a SAE 10W-30 or 5W-30 motor oil for general use. Use a full synthetic 5W-30 for starting/operating temperatures between 5°F (-15°C) and -13°F (-25°C). For other viscosities and recommendations, see Honda Owner’s manual.
iGX700 22hp Honda Engine Air-cooled 4-stroke OHV - Intuitive engine automatically increases throttle when required reducing fuel consumption. Eliminates need for choke and reduces chance of engine flooding.
The hydraulic system utilizes an ISO 46 hydraulic oil. The hydraulic oil filter should be replaced every 500 hours or each year, and the full hydraulic system should be drained each season. When replacing the oil, make sure to clean out any loose particulate at the bottom of the hydraulic tank before refilling with fresh ISO 46 hydradraulic oil.

Flatbed required - Roller Screed is shipped fully assembled and ready to use.
When loading and unloading your machines from a flat-bed or trailer, always use either the (4) provided lifting-eyes with shackles and chains rated above the maximum weight of your machine or the provided adjustable fork pocket assemblies. The lifting eyes are attached to the extension frame and can be moved to adjust the picking points for different length machines. The fork pockets can be adjusted by loosening the square U-bolts. Always place the picking support bars or fork pockets at an equal distance from the center of gravity of the machine.
Typical lead time is 4-6 weeks from date of order. Fastest in the industry!
