    11 years of paving and a lot of this just happens on the fly , paver width . Setting end gates and tow points revolve around thickness of mix but it is a good video to show what a paver is

    1. Before you null the screed. You need to pull the tractor forward to take the slake out of the screed arms. if not you screed will not be set properly.
    2. Alternate the conveyor and augurs to fill properly and will help with your head of material.

    I would be embarrassed if this was my paver being filmed. It’s filthy. We scrape down and spray the paver down at the end of every job. You should not see any old asphalt on the paver in the beginning of a new job.

      I retract my statement my man. Went back to see and holy hell. You ain't a joking. We knock everything like that off ours and have small scrapers sitting for the hand tools and or cleaning in between trucks. Just didn't pay attention in the beginning of the video I guess. That thing is a nightmare for sure.

Don't be embarrassed when we all see you're on sidewalks. You ain't getting no state work if that paver is shining, or else imma call the EPA.

      Zeroes it out as far as I know. You can see how the handle goes from tight to loose. Each paver is a little different and how it nulls out and is supposed to be set right. But the concept is the same
