Illustration 3 g03798279
Use Tool (C) to measure the distance between barrel (3) of the tow point cylinder and the end of cylinder rod (4). If the distance is not equal, adjust the tow points as required until both sides are equal.Check Procedure
Illustration 4 g03798301
Use Tool (C) to measure the distance between drop arm face (6) and slope box face (5). The distance should be 507.0 2.0 mm (19.96 0.08 inch) on both sides of the screed.
Illustration 5 g03798319
If the distance is incorrect, set the face-to-face measurement. Loosen lock nuts (7), and turn thickness screw turnbuckle (8) to set the face-to-face measurement. Tighten the lock nuts.
Illustration 6 g03798334
Verify that there is no crown in the main screed.
Place Tool (A) across the width of main screed (9) approximately 25.4 mm (1 inch) behind the leading edge.
Place two of Tools (B) between Tool (A) and main screed plate (9). Locate each Tool (B) approximately 25.4 mm (1.00 inch) from the ends of the main screed plate .
Illustration 7 g03798386
Use a third Tool (B) as a gauge to check the gap between main screed plate (9) and Tool (A). This check should be taken at the center of the main screed plate.
Illustration 8 g03798341
Use crown increase switch (10) and crown decrease switch (11) to adjust the crown. The space between Tool (A) and Tool (B) should be equal at all three locations.
Illustration 9 g03798374
Place Tool (A) across the width of main screed (9) approximately 25.4 mm (1.00 inch) in front of the trailing edge.
Place two of Tools (B) between Tool (A) and main screed plate (9). Locate each Tool (B) below the first adjuster at each end of the main screed plate.
Illustration 10 g03798392
Use a third Tool (B) as a gauge to check the gap between main screed plate (9) and Tool (A). This check should be taken below each adjuster. Check from the outer edges of the main screed plate to the center of the main screed plate.
If the trailing edge of the main screed plate is flat and straight, go to Step 9. If the trailing edge of the main screed plate is not flat and straight, go to "Adjustment Procedure" "Trailing Edge Adjustment".
Remove tooling.Adjustment Procedure
Trailing Edge Adjustment
Illustration 11 g03798405
Use extender proportional extender switch (12) to extend the right and left extenders.
Illustration 12 g06236548
Retract inner trailing edge adjusters (14) and outer trailing edge adjusters (13).
Use inner trailing edge adjusters (14) to set the flatness of the trailing edge. Do not disturb outer trailing edge adjusters (13). Start at the second trailing edge adjuster in from each side and move to the center.
Illustration 13 g06245404
Loosen nut (15) on top of inner trailing edge adjusters (14) only. Turn the trailing edge adjuster counterclockwise to retract the adjuster. Turn the trailing edge adjuster clockwise to extend the adjuster. Flatten the trailing edge of the main screed plate relative to Tool (A).
Tighten nut (15).
Remove tooling.Reset the Scales
Illustration 14 g06236577
Loosen bolts (16) and move crown scale (18) so the zero mark aligns with pointer (17).
