ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
INITIAL SETUP OF THE UNI-SCREED
Upon removing the Morrison Uni-screed from its box for the first time, you will find the
base unit with the handles removed. The left handle is detached in the box, while the right
handle is attached to the base unit by its electrical cable and throttle control cable. The throttle
cable is not connected to the throttle lever or engine to avoid damage to the cable, lever or
engine during shipping.
Set up the handles using the clamps and hex key provided. Set the length and rotation to suit
the operator. Then to set up the throttle cable, follow the steps
below:
•
Squeeze throttle lever open to expose the throttle cable
carrier
•
Place the ball of the cable in the carrier (Fig #1) and line
the cable through the slot in the carrier, housing, barrel
and barrel locking nut
•
Release the lever and turn the barrel and locking nut so
the slots do not align, and lock the barrel in place with the
locking nut
•
Open the Honda engine air filter cover by gently
squeezing the clip on the front of the black filter housing
and remove the cover
•
Pull the throttle cable over to the
engine throttle wheel.
•
Rotate the silver throttle wheel so
that the larger hole is pointing toward
the top of the engine.
•
Slide the stainless-steel throttle cable through the slot in the silver
throttle wheel. Make sure the throttle cable nipple is above the silver
throttle wheel.
•
Pull throttle cable down to slide nipple into the larger hole in the
throttle wheel
•
Place the threaded fitting of the throttle cable conduit into the clamp
below the throttle wheel. With a washer on either side
•
Tighten the nuts of the threaded fitting onto the clamp to lock the
conduit in place. Adjust the tension and length of the throttle cable by
moving these nuts
•
With the throttle grip at the end of the right operator handle
released, the throttle wheel on the Honda engine should be at the
zero position.
•
After verifying the operation of the throttle cable by squeezing the
throttle grip a few times, replace the air filter cover on the Honda
engine. Your Morrison Uni-screed is now ready to use!
