Leeboy Model 8510E Conveyor Paver 3-3
Component Location
Engine
The LeeBoy Model 8510E Conveyor Paver is equipped
with a Kubota V3800-TIE4F, 74 HP (55.2 kW) diesel
engine--a strong performer with the latest technology.
The engine is accessible through several access doors,
with a front service door where fuel lter components
are located for easier access.
Fuel-efcient and durable, this electronically-controlled
engine offers the latest in innovative emission solutions
that comply with stringent regulations for optimizing
combustion and reducing pollution. This Tier 4
Final engine complies with emission requirements
established by the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) to reduce diesel particulate matter (DPM)
and other toxins released into the air.
Advanced emission-control devices and low-sulfur fuel
requirements--only Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) can
be used in these engines--combine with after-treatment
methods such as Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) and
Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF).
The air cleaner removes ne particles such as dust,
sand, chaff and lint from the air. As air is taken into the
air cleaner assembly, the cyclone action deposits some
of the ne particles in the evacuator that is mounted
on the bottom of the air cleaner housing. The fuel lter
removes contaminants from diesel fuel before it ows
into the injection pump where it is injected into the
engine combustion chamber.
The radiator mounted in front of the engine cools the
engine. As coolant ows through the radiator, airow
from the engine-driven fan removes heat.
Refer to the Engine Operator’s Manual accompanying
your paver for additional engine information.
Electrical System
The electrical system is powered by one 12-volt battery
mounted in the engine compartment. Each battery
produces 12 volts DC and maintains 1,000 cold cranking
amperes (CCA). An engine-mounted alternator with a
minimum of 60 amperes charging capacity keeps the
battery charged during normal operation.
Components Overview
This section describes the major components for the
LeeBoy 8510E Conveyor Paver. Become familiar with
these components before operating the machine.
Operator Platform
The operator platform allows easy and convenient
access for controls of most paver functions. The paver
can be operated from the left or right side depending
upon which control panel side is active and best suited
to the working conditions. The main control panel
slides to either side of the platform, featuring the PV480
digital display controller, work function switches, and a
vandalism cover for security and protection. Remote
screed control boxes are mounted on each side for
screed operator convenience.
Hydraulic System
The hydraulic system includes hydraulic pumps, motor
and cylinders that work together for optimum machine
component control. Valves regulate the directional,
pressure and uid ow throughout the hydraulic system.
The LeeBoy 8510E Conveyor Paver now features
hydraulic test ports for ease and convenience in
checking pressure for its ve main functions.
