Slewing conveyor belt (o): A quickly mounted slewing conveyor belt can be fitted
to the vehicle frame behind the short conveyor belt to offer additional possibilities for
the feeder, such as filling two paver finishers or providing material for the construction
of a cycle track at the side.
A scraper is located in the ejection area for cleaning and to reduce wear.
An automatic chain lubricating system keeps the drive chains constantly lubricated.
Distance sensor (o): A sensor on the rear of the vehicle is used to sense the dis-
tance between the feeder and the paver finisher.
As soon as the engaged sensor registers the approach of the paver finisher, the feed-
er's speed is adjusted to that of the paver finisher and the distance is automatically
maintained.
Central lubricating system (o): A central lubrication pump ensures that the convey-
or belt chain links are lubricated with chain oil at adjustable intervals.
Hopper remixer (o): Two wear-resistant conical augers in the hopper halves ensure
that the material temperature is homogenised.
The somewhat colder material the outside is added uniformly to the hot flow of mate-
rial on the conveyor. The material is thus thoroughly homogenised.
The auger function can be switched off.
Conveyor remixer (o): At one end of the main conveyor, a mixer unit with central
material wedge and transverse augers mixes the material on the conveyor.
The auger speed can be adjusted. The mixer unit can be switched off and raised hy-
draulically for standard operation of the feeder.
Material container (o): The additional bucket is placed in the open hopper of the
paver finisher and secured in position.
It is used to take larger volumes of material provided by the feeder.
