2.8 Installing tunnel plates
To ensure an optimum material flow –
especially in the case of large paving
widths – so-called tunnel plates (11)
must be installed.
They are located directly in front of the
auger distributor and – in conjunction
with the auger – are an ideal system for
conveying the material.
When operating with widths of more
than 3.90 m, two or more combined tun-
nel plates (13) must be used.
In this case, additional stabilizing sup-
ports (12) must be attached to the tele-
scopic tube.
The tunnel plates must be directly
screwed to the receptacles provided for
this purpose (14); they are located on
the auger frame sides and can thus be
adjusted in height.
Refer to the auger extension chart to de-
termine which parts of the conveyor sys-
tem are required for the desired paving
width.

The auger extension chart is contained
in the operating instructions for the re-
spective screed.
