Operating Instructions
Operating The Trowel
The following steps are intended as a basic guide to machine operation, and
are not to be considered a complete guide to concrete finishing. We suggest
that all operators (experienced and novice) read “Slabs on Grade” published
by the American Concrete Institute, Detroit, Michigan. Read the “Training”
section of this manual for more information.
1. Get into the operator’s position behind the handle. With a secure foothold
and a firm grasp on the handles slowly increase the engine speed until
the desired blade speed is obtained. To maneuver the trowel, gently lift up
on or press down on the main trowel handle. To move the machine to the
operator’s left, lift up on the handle, to move machine to the right, push
down on the handle.
2. The best method for finishing concrete is to slowly walk backwards with
the trowel, guiding the trowel from side to side. This will cover all foot-
prints on wet concrete.
3. Remember that if you let go of the trowel, just step away and let the trow-
el come to a complete stop before trying to recover the trowel.
Stopping The Engine
1. Move the throttle lever to the IDLE or SLOW position and run the engine
for three minutes at low speed.
2. After the engine cools, turn the engine start/stop switch to the “OFF”
position.
