Sensor rod/sensor rod extension
The sensor rod acts as an orientation aid for the vehicle driver during paving.
Along the defined paving route, the vehicle driver can use the sensor rod to follow
a tensioned reference wire or another marking.
The sensor rod runs along the reference wire or over the marking. Steering
deviations can therefore be ascertained and corrected by the driver.
Use of the sensor rod must be in the paving scope of the paver finisher.
If the sensor rod or sensor rod extension is used, ensure that there is no one in the
vehicle’s danger area.
The sensor rod is adjusted when the vehicle is positioned, with its set working
width on the paving route and the reference marking running parallel to the paving
route has been set up.
Adjusting the sensor rod
:
- The sensor rod (1) is located on the face end of the vehicle and can be pulled
out to the left or right after releasing the four clamping bolts (2).
In the case of narrow working widths, the sensor rod extension (3) is inserted into
the sensor rod.
-
Once the sensor rod has been set to the desired width, the clamping bolts (2)
must be tightened again.
-
The inserted sensor rod extension is secured with the bolts (4).
