The Apollo AP 600 is a hydrostatic sensor paver for asphalt and wet mix macadam paving. It uses an Ashok Leyland H4C513020 CEV Stage V engine, hydraulically extendible telescopic screed, high traction wheel drive with automatic flow control and a TV 4900 gas heated screed as standard.
Detailed technical specifications for Apollo AP 600 Hydrostatic Sensor Paver
Daily pre-start checks · confirmed service intervals · warning actions · fluids and capacities.
Complete before the first shift with the engine stopped unless a functional check requires it running.
Inspect the platform, steps, handrails, guards and anti-slip surfaces; check extinguisher mounting, charge and seal if fitted.
Act if: access is unstable, a guard is missing, or the fitted extinguisher is damaged, discharged or out of date.
Function-test the emergency stop, horn, travel lights, warning lights and reversing alarm if fitted.
Act if: the machine does not stop correctly or any safety warning device fails.
Check engine oil, coolant, the 135 L fuel tank, caps, hoses, cooling pack and visible leakage.
Act if: a level is below the safe range, fluid is contaminated, or an active leak or overheat warning is present.
Check the restriction indicator, intake hoses and clamps; read all DOC, SCR, ASC and DPF messages at key-on.
Act if: there is an unfiltered-air path, restriction warning, stop lamp, derate or regeneration fault.
Check the 190 L tank level and inspect pumps, motors, cylinders, hoses, fittings, filters and cooler.
Act if: the level is low or a damaged hose, spray leak, filter restriction or hot-oil warning is found.
Test steering, service brake and parking brake in a clear area; inspect front solid and rear pneumatic tyres and wheel fasteners.
Act if: control response is poor, the parking brake cannot hold, or a tyre or wheel is unsafe.
Inspect the hopper structure, aprons, push rollers, cylinders, pins and movement.
Act if: a crack, bent part, loose pin, leakage or unsafe movement is present.
Inspect flights, chains, take-ups, sprockets, auger segments, bearings, extensions and all drive guards.
Act if: a drive is jammed, a chain or flight is damaged, a bearing is hot or a guard is loose.
Inspect the screed plate, end plates, extensions, tamper bars, vibrators, bearings and fasteners.
Act if: cracking, excessive wear, looseness, seizure, heat or abnormal noise is found.
Inspect propane or diesel lines, hoses, regulators, burners, cylinder restraints and the heater area.
Act if: fuel or gas is leaking, a hose is damaged, a cylinder is unsecured or burner control fails.
Check grade and slope sensors, material sensors, cables, console, battery, terminals and electrical panel.
Act if: response is erratic or any cable, wiring or terminal is damaged, loose or corroded.
Keep danger zones clear; clean material paths and lubricate conveyor, feeder, spindle, steering and bogie points as required.
Act if: supports are missing, material build-up creates a hazard, or a lubrication point is dry or seized.
Select an interval and include recurring daily inspection and lubrication tasks.
Feed and return-line filters
Replace both filter elements and check removed elements for contamination.
High-pressure filter
Replace the levelling-cylinder high-pressure filter element.
Feed and return-line filters
Replace both filter elements; inspect the system for leakage, restriction and contamination.
Material feed, screed and chassis
Complete daily cleaning, chain, bearing, sensor, steering, brake, tyre, electrical and lubrication checks.
High-pressure filter
Replace the levelling-cylinder high-pressure filter and inspect the circuit for leakage or restriction.
Paving and safety systems
Inspect and function-test the screed, heating, sensors, conveyors, augers, drive, steering, brakes and electrical system.
Tank and hydraulic system
Drain and renew the hydraulic oil; clean filling equipment and prevent contamination.
All hydraulic filters
Replace feed, return-line and levelling high-pressure filters; inspect pumps, motors, cooler, hoses and cylinders.
Stop immediately for red alerts; correct amber conditions before continuing paving.
Action: stop safely, shut down, check oil level and leakage, and diagnose before restart.
Action: stop paving safely, allow controlled cooling, then inspect coolant level, leakage and cooling-pack blockage.
Action: shut down, isolate ignition sources, keep clear of hydraulic spray and repair before use.
Action: secure the machine in a safe location and do not travel or pave until control is restored.
Action: stop by the safest available means, isolate the battery and tag the machine out until repaired.
Action: stop, isolate, lock out and mechanically secure the system before clearing material.
Action: stop safely, evacuate and use the correct extinguisher only if trained; do not open hot enclosures.
Action: stop loaded operation and inspect level, filters, cooler, hoses and leakage.
Action: read the display message, use the correct DEF and follow the approved regeneration or service action.
Action: pause paving, clean and secure the sensor and cable, verify the grade line and recalibrate.
Action: stop paving and inspect burners, heater lines, regulators and ignition before resuming.
Action: stop and correct the pressure or replace the damaged tyre before continuing.
Keep filling points clean and use fluids suitable for the installed system and operating conditions.
Fuel tank
Clean diesel fuel; prevent water, dust and DEF contamination.
Urea / DEF tank
Use clean, compatible DEF and prevent fuel cross-filling.
Hydraulic tank
Use the correct grade for ambient conditions; do not mix incompatible oils.
Hydraulic oil level
Check daily and renew at the 1,500-hour service or earlier after contamination.
TV 4900
Propane heating with 10 heaters; inspect hoses, restraints, regulators and burners.
TV 4500
Diesel heating with 4 heaters; inspect fuel lines, controls and burner condition.
Conveyor and feeder bearings
Lubricate daily while warm and again after wash-down or lubricant loss.
Spindles, U-joints, steering and bogie pivots
Inspect and lubricate daily; service earlier after cleaning, stiffness or contamination.
