Need help?Do you have a question about the Dynapac F6C and is the answer not in the manual?
The DYNAPAC F 6 C is a caterpillar paver finisher designed for laying various materials, including bituminous mixed material, roll-down or lean-mixed concrete, track-laying ballast, and unbound mineral aggregates for foundations. Its operation is facilitated by an automatic material handling system, a separate traction drive, and clearly positioned operating and control elements.
The paver finisher features a welded steel frame that houses its individual components. The caterpillar drives are designed to compensate for uneven ground, and the suspension of the attached screed contributes to high paving precision. A continuously adjustable hydrostatic traction drive allows the paver finisher's speed to be matched to various work conditions.
The material compartment, or hopper, is equipped with a conveyor system that empties material and transfers it to the auger. The hopper can hold approximately 10 tons of material. For improved emptying and material transport, the lateral covers of the hopper can be hydraulically moved (optional). Two separately driven conveyors transfer material from the hopper to the augers. The transfer amount is regulated fully automatically by scanning the filling height during the paving procedure.
The augers are driven and actuated independently from the conveyors, with the left and right halves controllable separately. The drive system is fully hydraulic. The conveying direction can be changed towards the center or outside to ensure a sufficient material supply, even when an excessive amount is needed on one side. Auger speed is continuously controlled by sensors monitoring material flow.
Height adjustment and extension of the augers allow for optimum adaptation to a wide range of paving thicknesses and widths. In the basic version, height is adjusted via barrel nuts. An optional variant allows hydraulic adjustment from the control panel. Auger segments of different lengths can be attached for various paving widths.
The levelling/slope control system (optional) regulates the traction point on either side with a defined difference to the opposite side. This system works in conjunction with the screed height adjustment of the opposite side. Actuation is electrohydraulically on both sides and can be controlled manually via toggle switches or automatically by an electronic grade control system.
A screed lifting device, actuated electrohydraulically on both sides via hydraulic cylinders on the arms and controlled by toggle switches on the operating panel, is used to lift the screed during transportation. The screed heating system is controlled and monitored via a control box located on the screed or at the rear of the machine, depending on the version.
The operating panel includes a steering potentiometer for electrohydraulic steering, a latch for securing the movable operating panel, and lighting for the instrument panel. The drive lever controls paver finisher functions and continuously regulates traction speed. It has a zero position for starting, a first position for conveyor and auger activation, and a second position for screed drive (tamper/vibration), levelling, and traction drive engagement. An emergency stop button immediately switches off the engine, drives, and steering system.
The paver finisher is equipped with various safety devices, including emergency stop buttons on the operating panel and remote control units (optional), a horn, and safety devices on the gas heater system (bottle valve, hose rupture protection, main shut-off valve). Additional safety devices include a walkway, screed coverings, screed hazard flasher, engine hoods, and side flaps.
For transportation, the paver finisher and screed must be reduced to their basic widths, and all protruding parts removed. Hopper and screed transport safeguards must be engaged. Gas bottles must be disconnected and transported separately in Germany. For loading by crane, four lifting eyes are provided, and the paver finisher must remain horizontal during lifting.
Maintenance work should only be carried out when the engine is at a standstill, with the drive lever in the center position, preselector at zero, traction drive fuse removed (if applicable), and ignition key and main battery switch removed. Lifted machine parts must be secured with mechanical supports. Only approved spare parts should be used.
Regular maintenance intervals include:
Oil drain points are provided for the pump distribution gear, diesel engine, fuel tank, and hydraulic oil reservoir. Used oil and fuel must be disposed of properly. The manual specifies preferred hydraulic oils (synthetic and mineral) and emphasizes the importance of using clean containers for filling.
