SET-UP AND POURING INSTRUCTIONS JOB SITE SET-UP FOR APĆ PLICATIONS USING SIDE DRIVE UNIT (24" AND LARGER). 1/2". Compacting the grade will help provide traction for the paver. ROAD CENTER LINE CURB OUTSIDE EDGE 1. The road bed for the paver must be graded up to approximately 10' wide (depending on hopper size). Begin about 2' outside the curb edge to about 8' towards the center of the roadway. The grading should be approximately 8' beĆ yond the curb end point.
JOB SITE SET-UP FOR APĆ PLICATIONS USING CURB ONLY (12" HOPPER): help provide traction for the paver. ROAD CENTER LINE CURB OUTSIDE EDGE 3. The road bed for the paver must be graded approximately 6' wide. BeĆ gin about 18" outside the curb edge to about 6' towards the center of the roadway. The grading should be approximately 10' beĆ yond the curb end point. Grade must be flat within approximately 1/2". Compacting the grade will 18" 6' PAVER TRAVEL DIRECTION 4.
AUTOMATIC SENSOR SET-UP: 1. Install sensors. (See INSTALLING SENSORS", page 22.) 2. Drive Paver to string line. Left side of curb mold should be about 18" to 24" from the string line. (6" to 12" for curb only). Bottom edge of mold (or mold edge bars) should be about 0" to 1/4" above grade level. Front wheel should point straight forward. 3. Manually level machine right-left. Adjust rear height to be slightly above front height for grading. Adjust front height to be slightly above rear height for pourĆ ing.
6. Front height sensor: Install sensor with potentiometer shaft facing forward. If not previously done, remove counterbalance weight from one of the three wands that are the same length. Replace it with 1/4-20 x 1/2 Hex Head Bolt. Install wand in a horizontal position. Adjust sensor horizontally until string line is approximately 1" to 3" inside end of wand. Adjust sensor vertically until wand is roughly parallel to the grade. Adjust sensor potentiometer shaft so screw drivĆ er slot is horizontal.
2. Flip the steering sensor selector switch to front sensor and check Steering Auto-Manual indicator lamps. If neither lamp glows, then the front steering sensor is zeroed" and requires no further adjustment. Proceed with adjustĆ ing the rear steering sensor. 3. If a lamp glows, manually rotate the front steering sensor wand slightly. If the lamp turns off within about 1/2" of rotation, do not adjust the sensor and proceed with adjusting the rear steering sensor. FRONT STEERING SENSOR 4.
AUTOMATIC HEIGHT SENSOR ADJUSTMENTS: 1. There are two height sensor locaĆ tions. Front sensor for GRADING. Rear sensor for POURING. 2. Check the Height Pour-ManualGrade indicator lamps. If neither lamp glows, then height is zeroed" and requires no further adjustment. 3. If a lamp glows, adjust the Height Trim potentiometer on the control panel until both lamps are off. When the wand is in a suitable position and both indicator lights are off the Height sensor is set.
ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT LIMIT SWITCH: 1. The limit switch cuts power to the appropriate solenoid when the Automatic Height Control lifts the rear wheel to an adjustable set point. This keeps the rear wheel in contact with the ground at all times to maintain stability and traction. 2. Plug the limit switch pigtail into the limit switch cable on the Paver main unit. Use the extension cable (#11447) if required. 3. The paver must be completely adjusted and ready to pour for a given concrete mold.
GRADING WITH THE PAVER BEFORE POURING: 1. Set control switches: Main power off, Auto power on, hydraulic power on, steerĆ ing auto-manual switch to auto, engine speed to high, transport speed range in pour, vibrators off, FNR in neutral, height sensor switch to GRADE, travel speed to 0. Turn Main power on, FNR to forward and adjust travel speed to approximately 8' to 15' per minute, the Paver should follow the string line. If it does not, correct grade or readjust machine as required.
BEGIN POURING: 1. Make sure the Height Sensor switch is flipped to the POUR posiĆ tion. 2. First Pour: Fill weight box (above mold) with concrete. 3. Spray hopper area and mold inside and outside with form oil. Fill hopĆ per to within 8" to 10" of the top with standard slip form paver concrete mixture. (See operating hints for concrete mix, page 36.) 4. Proceed with pour. Adjust vibrator potentiometers as required to fill mold and aid flow of concrete into curb area.
SWITCHING STEERING SENSORS: 1. When pouring in a straight line, use the front steering sensor. CURVE START 2. As the paver approaches a curve, use the front sensor until the senĆ sor reaches the beginning of the curve. 3. When the front sensor reaches the curve, flip the steering sensor seĆ lector switch to manual (center position). 4. Leave the selector switch in manuĆ al until the rear steering sensor reaches the beginning of the curve. 5.
ADJUSTMENTS WHILE POURING: The three main manual operator functions while pouring are 1. Adjusting vibrator speed. 2. Adjusting travel speed. 3. adjust the pitch of mold from front to back by rising or lowering the front cylinĆ der. Use the black mark on the front steering sensor wand as a reference mark. 4. The above three settings will be determined by the concrete mix. 1. For temporary work stoppages or while waiting for a concrete truck, push Main power switch off to stop all machine functions. 2.
OPERATING HINTS 1. If Automatic controls appear to work backwards, ensure that the sensor potenĆ tiometer shafts are in the correct orientation: 1. Front steering sensor: pot shaft faces rear of machine. 2. Rear steering sensor: pot shaft faces rear of machine. 3. Height sensor: pot shaft faces front of machine. 2. If entire mold does not fill with concrete, increase vibrator pot settings as reĆ quired. Ensure that concrete level is maintained in the hopper at all times. 3.
11. When using the Side Drive Unit or the optional right rear drive wheel, the Rear Drive switch (left or right) may be in one of two positions: 1. ON: drive is on and drives with the front wheel. 2. OFF: drive is off and free wheels. (For use during turns) 12. If the engine is lugging or the exhaust is exceptionally black, check the position of the vibrator pots. It is recommended that all three vibrator pots be set at approximately the same position. Unused vibrators should be turned off.
