Problem

Illustration 1	g06079886
Location of plugs in relation to slope jack. There is one jack on each side of the screed.

There have been reports of the plugs falling out of the protective caps for the slope jacks on certain SE Series Screeds. The plugs and caps are not serviceable items.

Solution

If the plug falls out, take no action. The plug is needed in applications where the jack is mounted in an upright position. The jacks on the SE Series Screeds are not mounted in such a way that the plugs are needed.
