Additional Notes

  • The Bomag BC-1172RB-2 and BC-972RB-2, both fitted with the Deutz TCD2015 V08 engine, carry a transfer case fluid capacity of 9 liters. The V06-engined models — BC-672RS-2, BC-772RB-2, BC-772RS-2, and BC-772RS-4 — hold 4.5 liters. The larger V08 capacity reflects the physically bigger transfer case used in the higher-output eight-cylinder platform.
  • Across all configurations listed, transfer case fluid level checks are specified at 10-hour intervals. A 10-hour check interval is typical for heavy compaction equipment operating in demanding landfill environments, where contamination or seal wear can develop rapidly.
  • The BC-1172RB-2 and BC-972RB-2 specify an initial service fluid change at 500 hours. The V06-engined models — BC-672RS-2, BC-772RB-2, BC-772RS-2, and BC-772RS-4 — specify an earlier initial change at 250 hours. The shorter break-in interval on the V06 models reflects a more aggressive early-life flush schedule for that transfer case design.
  • The BC-672RS-2, BC-772RB-2, BC-772RS-2, and BC-772RS-4 include a distinct second-change interval at 500 hours. A second-change step is used to remove residual metallic particles and manufacturing debris that survive the initial drain, before the unit transitions to the standard long-term service schedule.
  • After the break-in sequence, all configurations converge on a normal-use change interval of 2000 hours or 24 months, whichever comes first. The dual-trigger format — combining an operating-hour limit with a calendar limit — accounts for machines that accumulate low hours over extended periods, where fluid degradation from moisture and oxidation can still occur.
  • The BC-772RS-4 is powered by a Mercedes-Benz OM471LA Tier 4f engine rather than a Deutz unit. Despite the different engine platform, the transfer case fluid capacity of 4.5 liters and the full service interval structure — 250-hour initial change, 500-hour second change, and 2000-hour or 24-month normal interval — are identical to the Deutz TCD2015 V06-equipped models.
  • Serial number prefixes are specified for several models, including S/N 101 570 85/87 for the BC-1172RB-2 and S/N 101 570 84/86 for the BC-972RB-2. These serial number designations indicate that the listed transfer case specifications apply only to units at or above those production numbers, distinguishing them from earlier builds that may carry different specifications.
