1.12.3. Battery and Toolbox Storage Compartments.
The battery and tool storage compartments are just
behind and below the valve panel. Paving machine
components found in the compartment are as follows:
a.
Batteries and Voltage Transformer. The paving
machine uses two maintenance free 12 VDC storage
batteries connected in series. Each battery is housed in
a separate battery box. The battery charging circuit is
routed through a voltage transformer which regulates
voltage to operate both paving machine 12 VDC and 24
VDC electrical systems. A start relay, induction heater
relay, and field relay are mounted next to the voltage
transformer.
b.
Toolbox. The removable toolbox contains the
tools needed by the paving machine crew to change
paving widths.
A grease gun is included in the toolbox for completing
the daily lubrication requirements.
c.
Screed Burner Fuel Pump Assembly and Filter.
The screed burner fuel pump assembly is mounted
under the toolbox. The fuel filter is mounted on the
engine compartment bulkhead. The fuel filter removes
particulates from the fuel supply before they can reach
the screed burner fuel pump assembly. The fuel pump
assembly includes a 12 VDC motor, flexible coupling,
and replaceable pump. The pump output is routed to the
screed burner fuel lines. The screed burner fuel pump
assembly is turned on and off at the left hand screed
control panel.
