7-12 Rosco Maximizer 2B Asphalt Distributor
Maintenance
5. On a monthly basis or every 80 hours remove
burner from tank and check the condition of the ue
liners and ue tubes. Replace liner if damaged and
inspect ue tubes for damage.
Never operate burners if ue tubes
are damaged. Asphalt material coming through the
cracked tube could ignite when the burner is lit.
Consult your Rosco dealer for repair procedures.
LPG Burners (Option)
The LPG Burners are located at the rear of the
Maximizer 2B. Check the burner operation daily. Follow
this procedure:
DO NOT SMOKE around the machine.
Fuel, asphalt material and the fumes from either
can explode when exposed to ame or heat from
smoking or other sources.
Always wear protective clothing,
gloves and a face shield. Burners are hot and contact
with skin can cause severe injury.
1. Visually inspect the burner and mounting system
daily. Tighten, repair or replace components as
required.
2. Check the fuel level in the tanks daily.
3. Check the valves and fuel lines before the burners
are lit. If a leak is suspected, use soapy water to
identify the source of the leak.
4. Use a wrench to tighten the burner mounting
hardware before using the burners.
5. Visually inspect the ue liners and ue tubes for
cracks or other damage.
Never operate burners if ue tubes
are damaged. Asphalt material coming through the
cracked tube could ignite when the burner is lit.
Consult your Rosco dealer for repair procedures.
GPS Ground Speed Sensor
The controller uses either a GPS (Global Positioning
System) Speed Sensor or the (optional) Radar Horn
Speed Sensor to measure distributor ground speed for
use in application rate calculations and the display of
real time distributor metrics.
5. The hydraulic system is equipped with an oil î›™lter to
remove dirt and other contaminants. Change the oil
î›™lter if the pointer is in the red position. To check the
condition of the oil î›™lter or change it:
a. Start the engine.
b. Engage PTO (if equipped) to operate the
hydraulic system.
c. Run the engine at 1200 RPM.
d. Visually check the pointer on the gauge at the
top of the î›™lter. If the pointer is not in the red area,
the î›™lter does not need to be changed.
e. Change the oil î›™lter after 400 hours or
annually.
The pointer indicates the pressure
drop across the î›™lter. This can only give an accurate
reading when oil is circulating through the system.
Burner System
Diesel Burners
The diesel burners are located at the rear of the
Maximizer 2B. Check the burner operation daily. Follow
this procedure:
DO NOT SMOKE around the machine.
Fuel, asphalt material and the fumes from either
can explode when exposed to ame or heat from
smoking or other sources.
Always wear protective clothing,
gloves and a face shield. Burners are hot and contact
with skin can cause severe injury.
1. Excessive smoke or trouble starting means burner
cover must be removed for cleaning or adjustment.
Visually inspect the burner and mounting system
daily. Tighten, repair or replace components as
required.
2. Check fuel level in the tanks on a daily basis. Add
fuel as required.
3. Check the fuel î›™lter and fuel lines before the burners
are ignited. Tighten î›™ttings that are leaking and
replace any damaged parts. Clean î›™lter as required.

burner covers and check condition of burner. Clean
asphalt build-up from burner components.
