After turning on the power, press the Start Heat button. Once the heating function has
been enabled, the distribution/control box will apply electrical power to the heating
elements and the heating cycle will begin. The heating cycle is timed to optimize the
heat generated at the screed plates.
• While joysticks are in neutral, both sides of the screed are heating.
• When joysticks are out of neutral, the elements automatically cycle every two
minutes from side to side to decrease the load to half.

screed and do not cycle.
Press the button again to reheat the screed if needed.

AUTO screed heat operation (if equipped with the Automatic Temperature Control
option).
