STARTING
THE
ENGINE
PRELIMINARY
Before you start the engine:
A. Check fuel level and check lines and tank
for
leaks.
B. Check crankcase oil level.
!
CAUTION·
!
FAILURE TO MAINTAIN CORRECT OIL LEVEL IS
GREATEST
SINGLE
CAUSE
OF
ENGINE
FAILURES.
c.
Check
hydraulic
oil
level.
Oil
level
is
determined by petecek on hydraulic oil tank.
D.
Make
sure
steering
control
levers
are
in
the neutral position. To start,
the

3. Insert key and turn clockwise to start position.
4. When engine starts and is running smooth, throttle
back to idle. Allow engine to warm up for several
minutesbeforemoving paver. The warm upwill give
the hydraulic oil time to
wann, providing for more
efficient operation. In cold weather let hydraulic oil
warm
to 500or 600before moving.

The following procedures,
plus illustrations in figures 3, 4 and 5,will provide a
working knowledge of operating the paver through
forward/rearward and turning requirements.
1. Afterthe paver has been started and the motor is
warmedup, paver movements maybe made.
5. When making forward/rearward or turns, always
makethese moves

OPERATING
FEEDER
GENERAL
The feeder is a very
important
part of
the
paver
and
for
thisreason close attention
should
begivenon intergrading
its operation into the total operation of
the
paver. Follow
the procedure below.
1. Before rasing or lowering feeders,
fold
sides
in and
out by hand. (The side rails have a
double
action
motioncausing
theinand
out
movement.)
Never
use
cylinder pressure to
lower
sides into
place
after
loweringfeeder. This
may
bend
sidesorbreak
the
chains on the sides.
2. Whenlowering feeder,
do
not
lower
under
pressure.
Let the
feeder
down
with
engine shut off.
3. Do
not
let
the
paver
set
running
with
feeder
on
automatic
any
length of
time.
This may cause the
hydraulic
oiltoover
heat.
4.
Spray
the
feeder
drive
chains
periodically
several
times a
day
with diesel fuel.
5. Whenreedersare
runningand cutoffsare shut, there
will
~
spillage
the
full
width
of the paver. This is
normal
and
to help
prevent
this
spillage,
work
feed-
ers manually,
when
loading hopper
and
not paving.
6. Irregular movement of the feeder conveyor indicates
that a problem
may
exist with
the
feeder chain. To
eliminate this problem an adjustmenttothe feeder
chain
may be necessary.

OPERATION
OF
ELECTRIC
FLIGHT SCREWS
GENERAL
The electric flight screw is an added convenience to the
operator. A gauge is located on both sides of the paver.
These gauges
will provide the
operator
with quick refer-
ence to
the
height of the screed. Refer to figure 13 and
follow procedures below.
1.
Before
paving,
center
the
electric
flight
screws
by
referringto the screed elevation gaugeoneachside of
the paver. Raise or
lower
until
cable
end
is on
cO'.
2. While paving.

OPERATION
OF
HYDRAULIC
CUTOFFS
GENERAL
The cutoffsare
one
of the
most
importantfunctions of the
paver. whenused properly. Cutoffsare
used
primarilyto
control the flow of asphalt to
the
screed. Cutoffs
can
be
used
when
makingnarrow passes, at Ulilbeginning
and
ending of each passorpull. The cutoffs have been
designed to
break
away if accidently
bitS
a man hole
or
ridge.This feature will prevent excessive damage to
cutoff. (Tack underneath will break.)
1.
Moving
the
hydraulic
handle
forward
will
increase
asphaltflow to the screed. Pulling
the
handlebackwill
decrease asphalt flow.
NOTE
Always
work

2. In order
for
the

the
electric

AUTOMATIC
AUGERS: NEW STYLE
(TIED IN
WITH
CONVEYORS)
Automatic augers are mostly used when paving 9' or
10' . where' augers are capable of running material over
top of endgates, causing extra hand work.
!
CAUTION
!
NEVER RUN AUGERS WHEN PAVING 81WIDE.
NEVER RUN AUGERS IN REVERSE TO PUSH
MATERIAL
FROM LEFT TO RIGHT OR RIGHT TO
LEFT. Center chain guard prohibits material from
croSsing from one side to the other. (Damage will
occur).
HOW TO OPERATE:
1. Pull auger control handles on valve to "on" for
augers to feed extensions.
2 Tum left & right auger toggles on dash "on",
Now the augers will come on and off with the
conveyors.
3. When paving wider widths, and augers do not
provide sufficient asphalt flow, refer to the
following
step that identifies to
the
corresponding
machine.

LOADING
AND
UNLOADING
GENERAL
Trailers used to haul the paver should have ample
capacityto carry the weight of the paver. Place the trailer
in a clear, level area for loading
or
unloading.
Work slowly and
carefully
to avoid accidents. Keep the
area clear.

1. Remove tie down equipment.
2. Start and warm up engine.

PAVER PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS
Topreventcostlydowntime,the pavershouldbechecked
thoroughlybefore eachuse. Use
the
list belowto assist
in checking the paver.
1. Check engine
oil
(see enginemanual), hydraulicoil,
gear
box oil
and
diesel fuel.
2.
Referto
LubricationCharton
page
25and lubricate
as specified. (Somearea
orweather
conditions may
require extra lubrication).
3. Checkhydraulic
hoses,
fittings, pumpsand motors for
leaks, excessive wear
or
damage.
4. Checkthe engine
safety
switch: (the
engine
should
only
start
when
forward/reverse
levers
are
in the
neutral position.) See figure 2.
5.
Checkallelectricalfunctionsbefo~edistributingasphalt.
6. Sprayfuel oil on any part of
the
paver
thatcomes in
contact with asphalt.
7. Check burner ignition.
STARTING TO PAVE
GENERAL
The paveris capable of placing bituminous base, binder
and surface courses, lime
or
portland cement stabilized
sub-base and gradedaggregate materials up to a thickness of 6 inches. The paverhas aproductionrate of 250
tons
per
hour.
Equipped with electric and manual thickness controls
and a 8' to 13' wide screed,
the
paver
can
handle everythingfromdrivewaysand smallparking lots
to large parking areas and secondary roads.
Before starting to pave,
keep
the
following points in
mind:
A. Planthe project so
that
the
narrowest
passes
are
first, (the basicwidthof the paver) leaving
the
widest
pass until last.
B.
Make
sure to
useareference
guideline.
This
can
be a curb, gutter, adjacent mat
or
a string line. It is
importantthat the first pass
be straight as it will be
the
guideline
for
the following passes.
Use
the
guidebar gauges as shown in Figure 19.
C.
Never
run
the
paver
through
a pile of
mix
that
has
been dumped in front of the machine. Not
only
will
thisaffect the level of
the
mat beinglaid but damage
may result.
18
NOTE
If paving on
cool
windy days, it may be necessary to
maintain low heat
on
the
screed. To accomplish this,
reduce
the
pressure
on
the propane tank from 6 - 8
pounds to 2 pounds.
This
will provide a low even heat
that
will not
harm
the
screed. Do not attempt to regUlate
the
bumer
with
the
burner
valve.
