INDICATORS AND CONTROLS 1448 PLUS
Move the levers forward to move the extensions
inward, rearward to move the extensions outward.
Screed Depth Adjustment
Screed depth adjustment is controlled with
manually operated adjustment screws (A, Fig. 21)
on both sides of the screed. The adjustment screws
set the thickness of the asphalt mat. Rotate the
screws clockwise to increase the depth, counter-
clockwise to decrease the depth.
NOTE: Indicators on the adjustment screws
provide a reference for mat thickness, but
actual mat thickness must be measured with a
depth gauge.
Side Shoe Plate Adjustment
Wing nuts (B, Fig. 22) are used to adjust the side
shoe plates on both sides of the screed. Loosen the
wing nuts to adjust the side shoe plates and
re-tighten when the adjustment is complete.
Mat Crown Adjustment
Mat crown adjustment is controlled by moving the
rod ends (C, Fig. 23) inward or outward using a
ratchet handle (D, Fig. 23). Mat crown is increased
when the rod ends move outward. Mat crown is
decreased when the rod ends move inward.
Screed Propane Heater Kit (Option)
CAUTION
Do NOT smoke in the area around the paver
when equipped with propane burners.
A propane heater for the screed is available as an
option. It provides even heating across the bottom
of the screed.
