5.1 REPLACING THE BELT
The transmission belt T, Fig.7 is an item that wears out and deteriorates with the normal use of
the machine and it must be replaced periodically. So we will withdraw the guard of the pulleys P, Fig.7
loosening its screws and make those changes. This operation is not difficult because the engine is
stopped and the belt tension is loosening.
5.2 BLADE REPLACEMENT
HALCON Power Trowel blades P Fig.7 are made of special material that supports the continuous wear
friction with the concrete, but since this is a highly abrasive material, it will inevitably wear in normal use
and it will necessary replace them every so often.
In order to extend the maximum duration, blades are designed to turn 180 degrees in the horizontal
plane, which is given the option to wear the two edges of the blade.
To get around them or replace them, shall be loosening the screws T, Fig.7 that fix the blades to the
hexagonal arms of the machine and make the corresponding change back to tighten the screws again. In
case it is also necessary to replace the screws, we recommend using DIN 931 M8x40 of 8.8 qualities
