Quick Change AugersQuick Change Augers
The dual augers are hardened, 3/4-inch thick, 12-inch
round, HRC 55-60 augers that will last for years. The
modular auger assembly, in one-foot sections, allows for
a simple quick change of the assembly using only a few
standard tools should an auger get damaged.
NOTE: Because each auger is very heavy, the quick
change procedure requires two people to lift
the used and new auger during removal and
replacement.
To replace the auger(s):
1. Park the paver on a level surface.
2. Ensure the Under Auger Material Cut-Offs are
closed.
3. Extend both screed extensions completely as
you will be reaching between the paver frame and
screed. Shut off the engine.
4. Remove the operator seat on the side for auger
replacement by removing the cotter pin and then the
clevis pin from the seat mount. (Figure 5-54)

6. Disconnect (and cap) the lubrication hoses from
the grease points on each side of the lower auger
cover, and grease hose on the side for auger
replacement. (Figure 5-55)
