Features

Compact Size, Big Opportunities

• The compact size and small footprint simplify maneuverability in tight spaces for efficient work in urban-type applications
• Tight 90 degree turning capability enables the paver to rotate and cover tracks on a return paving pass
• Standard paving range utilizing the SE47 V screed is 2.4 m - 4.7 m (8' - 15' 6") with a maximum width of 6.1 m (20')
• Standard paving range utilizing the SE47 FM screed is 2.4 m - 4.7 m (8' - 15' 6") with a maximum width of 5.9 m (19' 6")
• Standard paving range utilizing the SE47 VT screed is 2.4 m - 4.7 m (7' 10" - 15' 4") with a maximum width of 6.0 m (19' 8")
• Paving depths up to 300 mm (12") supports aggregate paving applications

Transport Made Easy

• Machine weight of 13.6 mt (30,000 lb) paver and screed combination, without canopy, enables easy transport on a variety of trailer types
• Length of less than 5.5 m (18' 1") and width of 2.5 m (8' 2") when equipped with SE47 FM screed with optional folding end gates, accommodates machine transport without special permits.
• The front-loading angle of 20 degrees and high front bumper clearance reduces the need for additional blocking when loading onto various trailer designs
• Raising or retracting the canopy is fast and easy with both electric or manual options available
• Front, middle, and rear tie-down locations make securing the paver efficient for quick travel to the next job site

Exceptional Mobility

• Wheel undercarriage provides exceptional mobility and fast travel speeds for unmatched maneuverability around the job site
• Excellent traction is delivered through the 14.00x20 sand-rib or 15.5 R25 radial drive tires
• Front-wheel assist option provides power to the rear set of bogie wheels for excellent performance in tough conditions
• High, front ground clearance of 203 mm (8") helps avoid storm drains, curbs, and other obstacles

Smooth Material Flow

• Single amplitude tamper system with variable frequency screed plate vibration delivers excellent material flow and tight mat textures
• Low truck entry height and short front apron enhances 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
• Narrow auger chamber keeps material moving and helps eliminate stagnate patches
• Independent control of each material feed sensor, simply turn off the sensor for manual proportional feed control

More Comfort

• Optional ventilation system draws fumes from the auger chamber and redirects them away from the operator for a more comfortable working environment
• Single sliding console enables operation from either side of the machine
• Dual independent seats swing out 40 degrees beyond the platform for good visibility to curbs and obstacles
