through the machine truss .
2 . BOTH Machine Direction Controls need to be in either the for-
ward or reverse position .
3 . The Machine Travel Speed Control should be set off “0” . The
higher the setting the longer the advance will be when the

paving carriage will travel across the truss and slow down
and shift directions . At the same time the machine truss will
