Maintenance 

 

Preventative maintenance and routine service plan 

 

This trowel has been assembled with care and will provide years of service. 
Preventative maintenance and routine service are essential to the long life of your 
trowel. Your dealer is interested in your new machine and has the desire to help you 
get the most value from it. After reading through this manual thoroughly, you will find 
that you can do some of the regular maintenance yourself. However, when in need of 
parts or major service, be sure to see Beton Trowel. 
 

  GENERAL 

• Keep engine oil clean. Change according to engine manufacturer’s 
specifications. 
• Maintain the oil levels in the engine and gearbox assemblies. Change as 
required. 
• Use only clean fuel in the engine. 
• Check for loose nuts and bolts on the trowel and tighten as necessary. 
• Check “V” belts for wear, replace if worn. 
• Grease all fittings daily. See diagram. 
• Clean the unit after every use to prevent hardening of concrete residue. Hard 
concrete is very difficult to remove, greatly increases weight and reduces 
efficient subsequent operation of unit. 
• Check clutch linings regularly for wear. Linings should be changed when 3/4 
worn. Do not allow metal to metal contact as this will damage the clutch drum. 
(New lining is 8mm.) 

 

  AIR CLEANER 

Maintaining a clean engine will extend engine life. Keep air filter clean at all times. 
Clean air filter using the recommended solvent. See engine manual for proper 
cleaning procedure. Let the filter dry before reinstalling. 
 

  SPARK PLUG 

Check and clean spark plugs regularly. A fouled, dirty spark plug causes hard 
starting and poor engine performance. Set spark plug gap to recommended 
clearance. Refer to engine manual.
