3-4 Leeboy Model 8510E Conveyor Paver
Component Location
Augers
Right and left augers rotate
to move material from the
conveyors to the screed.
The auger can be manually
controlled at the operator
platform or by a screed
operator on the screed.
The auger can also be controlled automatically when
the optional auger/conveyor sonic sensor system is
installed and active. The sensor is mounted on the
screed endgates and used to monitor and control
the pile height of material at the discharge end of the
augers.
Torque Hubs
The paver drive system contains two torque hubs that
provide power to propel the tracks.

Hopper and Conveyors
The hopper wings are hydraulically raised and lowered
to open and close the hopper. When fully open, the
hopper can hold a payload up to 7.5 tons.
Material in the hopper is moved toward the back of the
paver to the screed by conveyors. The conveyor is
activated at the operator platform. Its wide, automatic
conveyors with a wide hopper design delivers asphalt
more evenly and efciently to produce a smooth asphalt
mat.
The hopper’s conveyor bed can be lifted hydraulically,
allowing easy access to the paver undercarriage and
tracks for service and cleaning.
Screed
The screed is the last part of the paver that contacts the
paving material. A screed operator usually operates
the screed while the operator drives the machine.
Paving material is fed from the hopper and conveyor
to the augers to the front of the screed. The screed
has hydraulically-controlled extensions that move in
and out to allow a paving base from 8 - 15 feet. Screed
heating is accomplished by propane or the optional
electric heating elements mounted directly to the wear
plates. The electric vibrators mounted on the main
screed frame can be used to increase paving material
compaction.
