Routine Service Intervals
Due to the nature and environment of use, Edger Power Trowels could be exposed to severe
operating conditions. Some general maintenance guidelines will extend the useful life of your trowel.
¥
The initial service for your power trowel should be performed after 25 hours of use, at which time your
mechanic (or authorized repair shop) should complete all of the recommended checks in the schedule
above. The chart on page 6 (six) is handy for keeping a record of the maintenance performed and the parts
used for servicing your trowel.
¥
Regular service according to the schedule above will prolong the life of the Edger Power Trowel and prevent
expensive repairs.
¥
Keeping your Edger Power Trowel clean and free from debris is the single most important regular
maintenance operation, over and above the checks in the service schedule above, that can be performed.
After each use your Edger Power Trowel should be cleaned to remove any dust and debris from the
undercarriage and surrounding components. Use of a power washer will make clean up quick and easy,
especially if a non-stick coating was applied prior to use.
¥
In the Service Schedule above, items that should be checked, replaced or adjusted are indicated by “o” in
the appropriate column. Not all Edger Power Trowel models include the same features and options and as
such not all service operations may have to be performed. For ease of recording place a checkmark (
√
)
through the “o” when the item is complete. If an item is not required or not completed place an “x” through
the “o” in the box.
¥
All Edger Power Trowels have governed engine speed of 3600 rpm. See engine manufacturer’s manual for
exact specifications. Care should be used when making any adjustments to the Edger Power Trowel not to
change the governed speed. Running the engine at lower rpm’s will result in a decrease of compaction force
and lower travel speed. It will create excessive “out-of-synch” vibrations resulting in poor compaction,
maneuverability, excessive wear to the machine, and discomfort to the operator.
¥
Failure to have your Edger Power Trowel regularly serviced and properly maintained in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions will lead to premature failure and void the warranty.
