Operating Instructions
To utilize your Allen Engineering MSP450 Rider to its fullest capacity the machine should be driven in
the direction the operator is facing. This will
fi nish the widest possible area while giving the operator an
excellent view of the slab surface about to be troweled. When the machine reaches the end of the slab
make a 180 degree turn and repeat the straight line of direction to the other end of the slab. To familiar-
ize a new operator with the riding trowel the following steps should be taken.
