Towing for More Than One Block
CAUTION
Completing the steps in “Towing for More Than
One Block” de-activates the drive system and
places the paver into “neutral.” Be sure to keep
the power attached to the towing vehicle to pre-
vent free-wheeling when the torque hub is in
“neutral.”
If towing the paver for more than one block:
1. Remove the cover plate (two bolts) (Fig. 30).
Fig. 30 - Torque Hub
2. Turn the cover plate over.
3. Re-install the cover plate and bolts.
NOTE:
The “bulb” in the center of the cover
plate pushes in a pin inside the torque hub,
placing it in neutral.
CAUTION
Complete step 4 before operating the paver.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 after towing the paver
to place the torque hub in the “drive” position.
IMPORTANT:
Do not tow the paver unless it
is an emergency, such as loss of hydraulic
power or engine failure. The travel control
levers must be locked into the "float" position.
Remove the lock lever, move the control
levers all the way forward, and then replace
the lock lever. Do not tow the paver rearward
or at high speeds!
Transporting for More Than One Day
If transporting the paver for more than one day:
1. Disconnect the battery.
2. Clean all bright surfaces and coat them with
heavy, very high flash-point grease to prevent
rusting.
THEFT DETERRENTS
Gehl Company has records of component and
serial numbers. Complete the following to
discourage vandalism, theft, and to help recovery
if theft occurs:
1. Remove keys from unattended pavers.
2. Inspect the gates and fences of the vehicle
storage yard. If possible, keep pavers in well-
lighted areas. Ask local law enforcement to
frequently inspect storage and work sites,
especially at night, during weekends and on
holidays.
3. Report any theft to your dealer and insurance
company. Provide the model and serial
numbers. Request that your dealer forward
this information to Gehl Company.
