CORRECTIVE ACTION
12. ONE AUGER/CONVEYOR SYSTEM WILL NOT OPERATE.
Step 1. Check auger/conveyor speed control valve setting.
If auger/conveyor speed control valve is closed (fully clockwise), open valve to increase
auger/conveyor speed per paragraph 2.1.3.
Step 2. Check the position of the feeder control switches.
Place the feeder control switches in the up, ON, position per paragraph 2.2.1.
Step 3. Check for jamming of the conveyor.
Attempt to move the conveyor in the reverse direction per paragraph 2.2.1. If the conveyor
moves in the reverse direction, jog the conveyor forward and reverse to free the jam. If
conveyor will not move in reverse and jamming is still suspected, use fuel spray washdown
system to dissolve any hardened asphalt per paragraph 3.3.7.
Step 4. If speed control valve and feeder control switch settings are OK and conveyor is not jammed, inform
supervisor of problem.
13. AUGER/CONVEYOR SYSTEM RUNS SLOWLY.
Step 1. Check hydraulic reservoir level.
If hydraulic oil level is low, add hydraulic oil as necessary per paragraph 3.3.4.
Step 2. Check position of the auger/conveyor speed control valve.
Turn the speed control knob counterclockwise to increase speed.
Step 3. If hydraulic oil level and auger/conveyor speed control valve setting are OK, inform supervisor of
problem.
