7. The pavercanoperate usingone side only. Material
from opposite side however, can not be augered to
the
working side.
This
is prevented
by
the
auger
center
cover. It is
possible
to leave
both
cut-offs
shut
and
open
the
end
gates
on
screed.
This
method
is generally
used
in doing
pot
holes
and
patching.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
GENERAL
Preventive maintenance on the Lee-Boy paver is a
simple
job
that
will
provide
years of
trouble-free
operation. Adjustments, also, are simple; they can be
performed, in the field, with ordinary hand tools. Engine
preventative maintenance, other than oil,
air
and fuel
filterchanges, is not
covered
in
this
section.
Refer
to
engine
operators
manual
for
engine
service
in-
formation. (NOTE: Foryourconvenience there is an oil
drain hose located in the tool box.)
10 - HOUR OR DAILY
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
1. Cleaning the paver at
the
end of
the
working
day
whilethe machine is still hot is like putting money in
the bank. A paverthat is continuously left with mix
stuffed
in every
corner
is
going
to
increase
maintenance
costs.
Scrape
off
mix
and
spray
fuel
oil
on
the
screed
plate,
hopper,
etc.,
any
place
that
has
come in
contact
with
the
mix. Spray
down
the feeders
while
they are running. All
cleaning
should
be
performed
while
the
machine
is hot. (NOTE: For cold weather,
keep
conveyor
flight chain properly
oiled with fuel oil. This will
prevent conveyor from sticking inside of conveyor
pan. Neglect could result in conveyorbars bowing
if conveyor does stick.)
!
CAUTION
!
IF
MIX
IS ALLOWED TO REMAIN IN
THE
MACHINE
OVERNIGHT, POSSIBLE DAMAGE
CAN
RESULT
ON
START-UP
THE
NEXT
DAY.

2.
Raise
feeders
(See
Adjustments
-
To
Raise
Feeders) and clean mix off all flat surfaces. This
operation is quick and simple when
the paveris still
hot.
Immediately
after
raising
feeders
place
the
safety
prop In position.

Perform
engine
preventative
maintenance
as
described in your engine operators manual.
Any
engine preventative maintenance should always
beginwith an
oil check. Also, check oil level inoil bath
