Eccentric Weight Adjustment
There are two eccentric weights (Figure 6) that are supplied
with the DuoScreed. These weights are located inside the
eccentric weight compartment, which is located at the bottom of
the unit.
Figure 6. Eccentric Weight Location
These weights determine the amount of vibration that will travel
down the blade. Depending on the type of blade that is used, will
determine the position of the two eccentric weights. Reference
Figure 7 in determining how your eccentric weights should be
positioned.
1 . To gain access to the eccentric weight compartment, loosen
the two wing nuts on each side of the compartment and lift
the cover.
2. Loosen the eccentric locking wing nut.
3. Use the chart in Figure 7 to determine what position your
eccentric weights should be in (position 1, 2 or 3).
Example:
A 13.9 ft. (4.25 meters) blade will place the eccentric weights in
position 2.
