Machine description
Lowering the screed to the floating position Screed lowering using the foot switch (48) is used when transporting the machine or when adjusting the screed before paving. During paving, the screed is supported by the asphalt mixture. The screed does not copy the unevenness of the substrate on which the machine is moving. When paving in the floating position, it is important to maintain a constant paving speed depending on the amount of material in front of the screed. It is essential to maintain a constant volume of material in front of the screed (half of the augers immersed in the asphalt mixture).
