6-10 LeeBoy Model 8510B Conveyor Paver
Operation
Spray Down
Always spray down the LeeBoy Model 8510B Conveyor
Paver before using.
The spray down on your paver is used to spray cleaning
solvent or release agent on any part of the paver that
comes in contact with the asphalt. Buildup of asphalt will
cause damage to components. Spray all areas of the
paver that have direct contact with asphalt.
Fire Hazard! Never spray cleaning
solvent or release agent on or near a screed heating
element that is hot or being heated or on or near any
open ame or source of ignition. Cleaning solvent
and release agent could ignite causing serious
personal injury.
NOTE: When using spray down, consider the
environment and do not allow cleaning solvent to
run onto the ground.
1. Pull out the amount of hose needed and set SPRAY
DOWN switch to SPRAY DOWN (up) position.
Squeeze the wand handle and spray. Release wand
handle when done spraying.
2. After spraying, set the SPRAY DOWN switch to the
OFF (down) position and let the hose wind back up.
Always use OSHA approved protective
gear when handling chemicals.
Burner Ignition Procedure
Propane gas used to heat the screed is
volatile and combustible. Use extreme care and
follow the instructions.
NOTE: Heating the screed helps prevent hot mix from
sticking to the cold screed plate and produces
a smooth, tight mat surface. Heating should not
only be performed at the beginning of the job, but
also if the paver is idle for a long time between
loads (allowing screed plate to cool).
The following procedure will provide the necessary
steps in manually lighting the burners. It is important to
remember that propane is a volatile and combustible
gas and for this reason safety should be a major
consideration. When treated with respect the propane
will not present a problem. Follow the procedures below
and refer to Figure 6-5, Figure 6-6, and Figure 6-7 as
required.
1. Turn OFF all burners valves (Figure 6-6,1,2,3).
2. Turn main propane valve ON (Figure 6-5,1) and set
regulator for 15 lbs. (1 bar) (Figure 6-5,3).
