Material Transfer Vehicle MTV
Paving Checklist
- Verify base/subbase can support loaded MTV.
- Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) – Run first 3-4 loads hotter to heat up equipment.
- Maintain proper height of material in hopper for consistency.
- Pickup attachment: Position mold board down to pick up essentially all material belly dumped on pavement.
- Watch for tack pickup on wheels – clean off or use spray systems.
