Abstract: A road paver includes a height adjustable auger assembly. A support housing of the auger assembly is attached to the road paver via a quick coupling apparatus that facilitates height adjustment of the auger assembly. A plurality of sliding devices are inserted into a respective oblong hole, each oblong hole includes an expanded insertion portion and a vertically extending portion. Wherein the vertically extending portion facilitates height adjustment of the auger assembly. A method of coupling the auger assembly includes inserting the sliding devices into respective oblong holes and adjusting the height of the auger assembly by moving the sliding devices between the expanded insertion portion and the vertically extending portion of the oblong holes.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a road paver, particularly a small road paver, for paving a subbase layer in a working direction (a), with a machine frame, a traveling mechanism, a material hopper for receiving paving material, a paving screed for smoothing and compacting the paving material, a transverse distribution device for distributing paving material in the working direction (a) in front of the paving screed and transversely to the working direction (a), the transverse distribution device being supported at the machine frame via a support housing, and a height adjustment device for vertical adjustment of the transverse distribution device relative to the machine frame, wherein the support housing is supported at the machine frame such that it is height-adjustable via a quick coupling apparatus, wherein the quick coupling apparatus comprises at least one oblong hole with an expanded insertion portion and a sliding device, wherein the sliding device can be inserted into the oblong hole through the expan
