Heated End GateHeated End Gate
The heated end gate also
heats the edge of the end gate,
producing a smoother joint
as you pave. (Figure 4-89)
(When the heated endgate is
turned on, the leading heating
element turns off on the side
you’re heating.) The heated
end gate switches are located
on the electric heat control
box.

Screed Single-Point Lube Screed Single-Point Lube
SystemSystem
The screed single-point lube system combines all
screed lubrication points into one. When you pump
grease into the central point, valves distribute the
grease evenly to all the screed grease points.
Automatic Temperature ControlAutomatic Temperature Control
Automatic temperature control (ATC) for heating the
screed is an option that offers additional convenience
for operators, automatically turning the heating elements
on and off to maintain desired screed temperature.
The ATC is located on the side of the heat control box.
(Figure 4-90)

1. Turn the screed electric heat box Power switch
DOWN to the automatic setting to turn ON the auto-
matic temperature control.
2. Green numbers illuminate to display the set point
temperature. The screed temperature appears in
red numbers above the set point temperature.
