Paver Operation
Spray Down
Always spray down the LeeBoy Model 8515D Conveyor
Paver before and after paving. Spray clean with solvent
or release agent on any part of the paver that comes into
contact with asphalt to prevent buildup that will damage
the machine over time.
There is a spray down system on both sides of the
Leeboy 8515D paver for your convenience. The wand
is conveniently located on each side of the operator’s
station. (Figure 4-31) The hose reel is located inside
the panel.
1. Turn the Spray Down switch on the control panel
ON. (Pages 3-6 to 3-7)
2. Extend hose from the reel.
3. Squeeze the wand handle and spray area. Release
the wand handle when nished.
4. Turns the Spray Down switch on the control panel
OFF.

Never spray cleaning solvent or
release agent near the screed heating element or
near open ame. These agents are highly ammable
and can ignite, causing serious personal injury.
When using, consider the environment
and DO NOT allow cleaning solvent to run onto the
ground.
• To steer the unit to the right, SLOWLY push the left
joystick farther forward than the right joystick. The
farther the joystick is pushed, the more the paver
turns. Slow and easy adjustments are required for
safe operation.
NOTE: If the joysticks are in the forward position
and the Run/Stop switch is set to the STOP
position, the system will time-out after 10
minutes. You must put joysticks back into
neutral and toggle the Run/Stop switch from
RUN to STOP and back to RUN again to regain
control. (See Page 5-31 for more information
about this safety feature.)
Stopping the Engine
1. Place joysticks to the neutral position.
2. Throttle back to idle using settings on the digital
display screen.
3. Turn ignition key on the instrument panel
counterclockwise to the OFF position and remove
key.
NOTE: If the engine does not shut down when key is
turned to OFF, press the E-Stop button on the
control panel to terminate power.
Before leaving the operator platform,
the operator must return joysticks to the neutral
position and switch the Run/Stop (on the Steering
and Speed Control Box) to the STOP position.
