All units are equipped with 40 feet of hose, a six-
foot spray wand and two propane burners. Trailer-
mounted units are prewired for towing and include
safety chains with a two-inch ball or pintle eye hitch
(pintle eye is standard on the L500 model). The L250
model is equipped with single-axle electric brakes
and emergency break-away switches. The L500
is equipped with electric brakes on both axles and
emergency break-away switches.
The tack distributor is available in a skid-mount or
trailer-mount version, with three tack tank sizes: 150,
250 or 500 gallons.
The trailer-mounted tack distributor can be towed
behind a pick-up or larger vehicles for speed and
productivity. All models are equipped with a ball hitch or
pintle eye option and safety chains for ease of towing.

Optional engine packages include an electric starter
and battery for the standard Honda engine, or manual
and electric starter and battery for Hatz engines. Other
optional components include an emulsion heater for
maintaining asphalt temperature during cold weather
applications or preventing asphalt from setting up when
stored overnight. An optional spray bar adds versatility
to coating applications. Completing the option package
is the in-truck control, which allows the operator to
operate the spray bar from inside the towing vehicle.

1 MATERIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The liquid asphalt most commonly used in the LeeBoy
tack distributor is emulsified asphalt. The information
in this section is based upon industry standards.

assure patch quality for the paving job.
Be sure the overnight heater tubes
inside the tank are covered with at least three inches
(7.6 cm) of material as they can become too hot and
ignite vapors.
TRANSPORTING THE
DISTRIBUTOR
Be sure the trailer is large enough to handle the weight
of the tack distributor if transporting. Ensure the unit is
positioned for even distribution of weight between the
trailer axles and trailer hitch.
It is also important that the combine height of the truck
bed, trailer and distributor meet height restrictions for
the local area, including bridges, overpasses and any
other overhead obstructions enroute.
1. Ensure the the tack tank is empty and flush the
circulating system.
2. Clean the machine thoroughly with a pressure
washer.
3. Park the transport vehicle or trailer on a level
surface, engage the park brake, shut off the engine,
and place wheel chocks behind tires.
4. Use a ramp sufficient to support the trailer-mounted
machine (or loading dock). If loading a skid-mount
unit, use a lifting device strong enough to lift the unit
onto the transport vehicle bed. Ensure the unit is
centered and secured on the trailer.
5. For trailer-mounted unit, block tires on both sides.
6. Secure the distributor (trailer-mount or skid-mount)
to the trailer using chains that are rated in excess of
the distributor weight though the D-rings on top of
the unit.
