Auto-Float® Switch: Used to keep the optional Auto-
Float® from running when moving the machine about
the job. When the switch is in the “I” (on) position, the
starting and stopping of the Auto-Float® is controlled
by the travel of the machine. When the machine travel
is stopped, the Auto-Float® will stop. The Auto-Float®
will begin operation when the machine forward travel is
resumed. When the switch is in the "O" (off) position,
the Auto-Float® will not run when the machine is
moving. The switch must be in the “I” position during
pouring operations. The Auto-Float® will only operate
when the machine is traveling in the forward direction.

Auger Variable Control Dial: Used to control the
speed of the left and right augers in either forward
or reverse directions of rotation. The auger will
stop when the corresponding dial is turned to the
“off” position (all the way counterclockwise). The
auger will begin to rotate and increase speed as the
corresponding dial is turned clockwise. The auger will
decrease rotation speed as the corresponding dial is
turned counterclockwise.
Auger Direction Switches: Controls the rotation
direction of the left and right augers. Move the switch
up (↑) to rotate the corresponding auger to the left and
move the switch down (↓) to rotate the auger to the

stop with paver travel in the same manner as the
vibrator systems (see the travel variable control dial for
more information).
Tamper Variable Control Dial: Used to control the
