NOTE: THE LUBRICATION SYSTEM SHOULD BE
CHECKED AT LEAST ONCE PER MONTH TO
ENSURE THAT THE UNIT IS FUNCTIONING
PROPERLY.
3. GEARBOX
In operation the gearbox lubricant is in a fluid state.
When the machine is stopped the lubricant returns
to a gel state. It will only be necessary to inspect the
sealed components if the outside of the gearbox
gets too oily or otherwise shows evidence of a leak.
If this happens, clean the machine thoroughly and
look for leaks. Effect necessary repairs immediately.
Use SHELL TIVELA COMPOUNDS ‘A’ (0.3L,
10.1oz.) gear oil or equivalent to top up the gear box
after any maintenance to the internal components.
STORAGE
The following steps should be taken to prepare your
Edger Power Trowel for extended storage.
1. Close fuel shut off valve.
2. Siphon excess gasoline from tank.
3. Start engine until it stops from lack of fuel. This will
use up all the fuel in the carburetor and prevent
formation of deposits due to evaporation of fuel.
4. Remove spark plug and pour 2 oz. of SAE-30 or
SAE-40 motor oil into the cylinder. Slowly crank the
engine 2 or 3 times to distribute the oil throughout
the cylinder. This will help prevent rust during
storage. Replace spark plug.
5. Store the unit in an upright position in a cool, dry,
well ventilated area.

MAINTENANCE
Maintaining your Walk-Behind Power Trowel will insure
long life to the machine and its components.
AIR CLEANER
- Keep air filter clean at all times. Wash
away dust and debris using a non-oil based cleaning
solvent. Let the filter dry before re-installing.
LUBRICATION
– Check engine oil regularly. Use
proper engine oil as recommended. See previous
chart. Fill crankcase to levels as recommended in
manufacture’s engine manual.
SPARK PLUG
–
Check and clean spark plugs
regularly. A fouled, dirty or carboned spark plug causes
hard starting and poor engine performance. Set spark
plug gap to recommended clearance. Refer to engine
manual.
BELT TENSION –
IMPORTANT!
If there is excessive belt play, there will be a decrease
in the power transmission capability which could lead to
premature wear and failure of the belt. The normal belt
play should be 1/2” to 5/8” which is attained by
depressing one side of the belt at the mid-point of the
span between pulleys. Tighten all engine mount
fasteners.
