Setting the end gates
The screed end gates (39) prevent the paving material from getting outside the paving area and creating an edge profile of the paved layer. The leading angle of the end gate directly affects the shoulder profile. The screed of the machine is equipped with a left and right screed end gate (39), chains (2) and holders (3) for setting the position of the screed end gates (48) on the left and right side of the screed.
