• Counter-rotating tracks provide excellent maneuverability in tight quarters
• Self-tensioning accumulators, center guide blocks, and rugged internal belt cables help ensure durability
• Rubber-coated components help shed asphalt and prevent accumulation
• Efficient track plow design pushes material away from the tracks and helps eliminate cold patches caused by track compression

• Low truck entry height and short front apron enhance material flow while simplifying clean out
• Feeder system design with 355 mm (14″) diameter augers provides consistent material flow across the screed for efficient flow at both narrow and wide paving widths
• Confined auger chamber keeps material moving and helps eliminate stagnate patches
• Independent control of each material feed sensor when utilizing a cut-off shoe, simply turn off the sensor for proportional feed system control

• Optional ventilation system draws fumes from the auger chamber and redirects them away from the operator for a more comfortable working environment
• The single sliding console provides operation from either side of the machine for optimal visibility to curbs, edges, and transverse joints
• Dual independent seats swing-out 40º beyond the platform for good visibility to curbs and obstacles
