Berm Screed Extension Berm Screed Extension
Attachment Attachment
The Berm Screed Extension Attachment (HD Screed
only) allows you to adjust the last one foot of each
extension to pave up to a four-inch roll-up curb. (Figure
4-70) You can also raise the height to easily allow more
material alongside buildings or other objects on various
paving jobs. The berm attachment is adjustable while
paving and controlled via a remote toggle switch.
Figure 4-70. Paving with Berm Attachment
The berm attachment is adjustable while paving. To
operate:
• Place toggle switch in the BERM position to raise and
lower the berm attachment.
• Place toggle switch in the EXT position to move the
screed extension in or out.
Rubber or Steel Track OptionsRubber or Steel Track Options
The LeeBoy 8515E paver is equipped with poly-pad
tracks. However, steel or rubber track options are avail-
able in lieu of the poly-pad tracks.
Screed Sloping ExtensionsScreed Sloping Extensions
The sloping extensions option provides the means of
matching curb and gutter to reduce handwork while
paving. The hydraulic slope extensions provide 0 - 8
percent slope.
Heated EndgatesHeated Endgates
The heated endgate also
heats the edge of the end-
gate, producing a smoother
joint as you pave. (Figure
4-71) (When the heated end-
gate is turned on, the leading
heating element turns off on
the side you’re heating.) The
heated endgate switches are
located on the electric heat
control box.
Figure 4-71. Heated
Endgate
To operate the heated endgates:
1. Start the paver and idle until the engine reaches
normal operating temperature.
2. Raise the screed plate one or two inches off the
ground.
3. Turn the electric heat control box power ON by
turning the power switch up.
4. Press the Start Heat button. The HEAT ON indi-
cator light will illuminate and stay on as long as the
element is heating (approximately 20 minutes).
5. Turn the left or right endgate switch up to the ON
position.
6. You can restart the cycle by repeating Step 4 if
needed.
