Startup after storage
Hydraulics system check
1.
Before starting the paver, check the spray paving system hydraulic
reservoir fluid level and perform a visual inspection of all
hydraulic components.
2.
Power on the spray paver display screen unit using the power
button on the pendant, and start the paver’s engine.
3.
Verify the right and left telescoping spray bars extend and retract
and the front spray bar tilt functions.
Note:
Retract the locking pin on the right side of the front
spray bar to tilt. In some models this must be done manually.
Cleaning agent check
If the machine was properly stored, there will be cleaning agent (typically
diesel fuel) inside all spray bar pipes and in the emulsion tank(s).
To ensure Tank Circulate and Spray Bar Circulate can be run without
pulling air on the suction side, unbolt and remove an emulsion tank
cover, and look into the tank to be certain that the tank suction (outlet)
port is submerged with release agent.
If the spray bars contain cleaning agent, but the level in the
emulsion tank is not high enough to cover the suction port,
directly add cleaning agent to the tank.
If there is no cleaning agent inside the spray bars, run the Clean
Out
pump functions to circulate cleaning agent through the spray
bars and back into the emulsion tank.
Note:
Open the manual ball valve at the cleaning agent
tank when running the Clean Out functions, and then close the
ball valve when complete.
