6.05.02 Description
The thermal aprons keep the rising heat near the machine's tyres when
laying asphalt. Concentrating the heat ensures that the tyres heat up
quickly, and prevents asphalt from sticking to the tyres.
6.05.03 Operation
To heat up the tyres, drive over the hot asphalt with the thermal skirts
closed. The thermal skirts prevent the tyres from cooling down when
the outdoor temperature is low or there is wind. If the machine is not
being used for laying asphalt, the thermal aprons can be rolled up, and
secured by the holding straps. To obtain better access to the tyres for
maintenance purposes or to prevent premature wear of the thermal
aprons, they can be quickly removed from the machine by releasing the
rotary locking devices.
