(3 m)-wide asphalt pavers have been designed from the road up with the contractor in mind. Designed especially for the North American market with input from dealers and contractors, the F1000 series pavers can handle extreme conditions in remote loca- tions, yet are easy to operate and service, according to the manufacturer. The F1000 series features heavy welded frame construction, dual swing-out operator stations and low deck height. The result is enhanced visibility for the operator, who now has a clear view of the hopper and auger — and a full view of the work area. The .75 in. (1.9 cm) formed hopper wings deliver asphalt to a high-capacity slat con- veyor with a wide material tunnel and extra heavy chains and slats. The high-perform- ance outboard auger drive and the conveyor design eliminates the auger chain drive box and means no center line segregation. The conveyor system delivers 600 tons (544 t) per hour of asphalt to either a Carlson EZ III or EZ IV screed to lay mats up to 12 in. (30.5 cm) deep on new placements, and thin over- lays on rehabilitation projects. To complement the rugged design of the pavers, a dual computer system and reliable relay logic controls have been incorporated into the machine to withstand harsh environ- ments and the demands of the job site. The multi-function display makes it easy to cali- brate the system. Powered by a Cummins QSB-220 Tier III diesel engine operating at 230 hp (171 kW) and 1800 rpm, the F1000 series also features an integrated Sauer drive system. The avail- ability of these parts throughout the country means quick turn-around for maintenance and repair for maximum uptime on the site. A 36 kW, 60 Hz generator provides full out- put at low idle for increased fuel economy. The F1000 series is easy to operate with features and functions that have been designed with operator comfort and safety in mind. The simple controls and multi-func- tion display are operator friendly and grouped for convenience. The precision front-wheel assist steering on the F1000W is tight and responsive, and the steering on the F1000T can be controlled by a knob for pre- cise paving speed control. A return-to-center feature is an advantage on both models, as well as a single lever for forward/reverse control. Fumes exhaust through the engine stack, reducing the crew’s exposure to asphalt fumes. Uptime is critical on any paving job so the F1000 series is easy to troubleshoot and service, according to the manufacturer. No daily lubrication is required on the tractor, and two fuel tanks are at ground level for quick refueling. A single panel at the side gives full access to filters, and flip-open doors and a removable top cover give full access to the engine and hydraulic lines. There is a pressurized hydraulic filtration system with one-piece hydraulic valve man- ifolds offering simple maintenance. And for overall maintenance, the radiator and oil cooler have been designed to withstand pres- sure washing. Electronics in harsh environments can be an issue in some cases, but not with the F1000 series pavers. The sealed wiring har- ness in the sealed fuse box is designed for easy service in a clean enclosure. The logic relays feature an LED power indicator, latching indicator and mechanical override for fast trouble shooting and quick replace- ment. The Sauer cartridge valves have a manual override, and the drive system is eas- ily disengaged with a simple manual con- veyor tension to move the paver in the event of a major failure. “We call it ‘Uptime from Design,’” said Bruce Truesdale, president, Dynapac USA. “Everything on this paver has been designed to help contractors improve productivity, reliability, operator comfort and safety and reduce total cost of ownership.” For more information, visit www.dyna- pac.com.

Dynapac Introduces Paver Line for North America MarketDynapac’s F1000T tracked and F1000W
wheeled 10-ft. (3 m)-wide asphalt pavershave been designed from the road up withthe contractor in mind.
Designed especially for the NorthAmerican market with input from dealersand contractors, the F1000 series pavers canhandle extreme conditions in remote loca-tions, yet are easy to operate and service,according to the manufacturer.
The F1000 series features heavy weldedframe construction, dual swing-out operatorstations and low deck height. The result isenhanced visibility for the operator, whonow has a clear view of the hopper and auger— and a full view of the work area.
The .75 in. (1.9 cm) formed hopper wingsdeliver asphalt to a high-capacity slat con-veyor with a wide material tunnel and extraheavy chains and slats. The high-perform-ance outboard auger drive and the conveyordesign eliminates the auger chain drive boxand means no center line segregation. Theconveyor system delivers 600 tons (544 t)per hour of asphalt to either a Carlson EZ IIIor EZ IV screed to lay mats up to 12 in.

To complement the rugged design of thepavers, a dual computer system and reliablerelay logic controls have been incorporatedinto the machine to withstand harsh environ-ments and the demands of the job site. Themulti-function display makes it easy to cali-brate the system.
