SERVICE AND STORAGE
WARNING
Do not spray releasing agent into tracks before
loading or unloading the paver on a truck or
trailer, because this could cause loss of
traction.
Do not spray releasing agent on a hot engine.
Do not spray releasing agent while the screed
propane heaters are in use.
Check Fuel Tank Level
After daily operation, fill the fuel tank to prevent
water from condensing in the tank. Remove the
filler cap and add fuel.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT discharge fuel onto
the ground. Contain and dispose of fuel
according to environmental laws and waste
regulations.
Check Engine Oil Level
Complete the following steps to check the engine
oil level:
1. Move the paver to level ground and stop the
engine for at least ten minutes.
2. Remove the engine dipstick, wipe it clean, re-
insert it, and then remove it again. Read the oil
level on the dipstick.
3. If the oil level is below the ADD mark, add oil
until the level has reached the FULL mark.
Refer to the engine operator’s manual for
engine oil type requirements.
Check Radiator Coolant Level
WARNING
DO NOT remove the radiator cap when the
engine is running hot or overheated. Coolant is
extremely hot and under pressure and it can
burn your skin. Allow sufficient time for the
radiator to cool before relieving the pressure
and removing the radiator cap.
1. Check the radiator coolant level by viewing the
coolant level in the overflow bottle. If there is
no coolant in the overflow bottle, proceed to
step 2.
2. Move the paver to level ground, allow the
engine to cool and remove the radiator cap.
3. Add clean engine coolant as required. Refer to
the engine operator’s manual for coolant type
requirements.
4. Re-install the radiator cap.
IMPORTANT:
Operating the engine with a
loose or damaged radiator cap will defeat the
pressure bypass and may damage the engine.
Check Instrument Operation
Allow the engine to warm up for about five
minutes before beginning operation. Indicator
lamps should not be lit and gauges should register
normal readings.
Check Paver Operation and Condition
Check the following:
•
Are any decals missing or damaged?
•
Are all guards, shields and covers in place?
•
Do all controls function smoothly and
properly?
•
Are there any abnormal vibrations or noises?
•
Are any hoses or fitting connections leaking?
•
Is the engine exhaust color normal (normal
color is light blue or colorless)?
