3.08 Additive sprinkling
General The additive sprinkling enables a moistening of the wheels with a
separating compound. This prevents that bitumen sticks on tyres when
laying blacktops. This is the only way to make a neat and even covering.
The emulsion may only be mixed of parting agent concentrate and water
according to the indications of the parting agent producer (Observe
regulations for environment protection).
Additive sprinkling
The additive sprinkling is switched on and off using the switch [318] or
[380]. As long as the switch is pressed, the tyres are sprinkled.
The frequency of sprinkling depends on the temperature of the tyres.
Cold tyres must be moistened more often than warm ones. Prior to
driving on hot blacktops take care that the running surfaces of the wheels
are clean and sufficiently moistened.
