TM 5-3895-374-10 No. Panel Value Operation 6 Screen Screen-repeat monitoring process at 10 minute    intervals until desired production rate has been reached. The M081 Asphalt Mixing Plant is rated at 150 tons per hour.  This production rate is determined by a number of significant factors.  The production rate of the plant may be increased as long as the mix being produced is within tolerance and the components  of  the  AMP  are  not  overloaded.    As  the  production  rate  approaches  150  tons  per  hour  and  subsequently exceeds it, the monitoring of the plant controls and mechanical operation must be intensified. If problems occur at the higher production rate: Decrease plant production.  See section 2-15 Shut down plant production.  See section 2-18 Implement corrective steps to control the operating malfunction.  See section 2-21. 2-15 Decreasing Plant Production No. Panel Value Operation 1 Keyboard 80 Keyboard-press ESCAPE, targets (1), 80 ENTER, ES- example CAPE (the new production rate should now be 80 tons). only 2 A Feeder panel-monitor the feeders to verify that the feed rate decreases. 3 D Burner   control   panel-monitor   the   stack    temperature when the decreased aggregate reaches the drum.  If the temperature increases, slowly decrease the burner firing rate   by   pressing   the   DOWN   ARROW   on   the   Stack Control. 4 D Burner control panel-monitor stack temperature in upper screen  of  Stack  Control  (should  be  300°).    Verify  set point value, in lower screen, is 300.  Burner is still on automatic   temperature   control   and   will   maintain   set point. page 2-110
