Abstract
A paving surface roller having indentation rumble strips comprising main pipe segments is mounted for support and operation on a frame structure of a paving machine or other vehicle and the drum is movable from operable to inoperable position above the surface by means of hydraulic rams attached to swinging arms on the frame. In one version the drum is supported and moved. In other versions for use with fixed drums, ground engaging wheels are selectively moved into place to elevate or lower the drum.
