TM 5-3895-373-102.14AUGER/CONVEYOROPERATIONS.The auger/conveyor system is a dual system. There areleft and right controls to operate each system together,independently, and in different modes, if required. Thefollowing operating instructions discuss operating thesystem as a dual system. To operate the left or rightside independently use the left or right side controlsseparately.2.14.1ManualOperation.a.Turn left and right auger/conveyor speed controlvalves fully clockwise and then back-off eachvalve three clicks. This is done to balance outauger/conveyor speed at the start of paving. Tofurther adjust the speed of left or rightauger/conveyor systems, turn the speed controlvalve counterclockwise to increase speed andclockwise to decrease speed.b.Place left and right auger/conveyor switches toMAN.NOTEEither left or right feeder controlswitches and left or right flow gateswitches can be used to regulate flowof paving material from the hopper tothe augers. The two controls can beused independently or together tomaintain the desired level of pavingmaterial in auger chamber. Theseswitches are located on both left andright screed control panels andoperator control console switchpanel.c.Move the flow gate switch up to increase thematerial flow or down to decrease or stop thematerial flow. The flow gate switch is used tomaintain proper paving material level in theauger chamber. Depth of paving material shouldbe maintained at one half to three quarters theheight of the auger diameter.2-38
