3. Stopping the Trowel
To stop the trowel’s movement, let go of the joysticks [B] and [C]. They will return to their neutral
position. Also release pressure on the right foot pedal [E].
This machine is equipped with a seat kill switch mechanism.
If in need of an emergency stop, simply turning the key off
or raising off the seat even while holding the right foot pedal
down, will stop the engine from running.
4. With the operator in the seat, show him the functions of the joysticks [B] and [C] and how
to start the machine.
A hard level concrete slab with water on the surface is an ideal place for an operator to practice with the
machine. For practice pitch the blades up approximately 1/4 inch on the trailing edge. Start by making
the machine hover in one spot and then practice driving the machine in a straight line and making 180
degree turns. Best control is achieved at full engine RPM.
After starting engine, fully engage the throttle. This allows
the engine to warm up quicker and also engages the torque
converter. At this time the machine’s rotors will begin
turning so long as foot pedal [E] is engaged.
DO NOT
use excessive pressure on the joysticks. Excessive
pressure does not increase the reaction time of the machine
and can damage steering controls.
5. Engine Speed
The engine has two primary speed settings: Idle (1200 RPM) & Full (3400 RPM)
The engine will start at idle speed. This machine is equipped with a
Cold Weather Start
circuit, meaning that
the engine RPM will not increase above idle speed until the hydraulic oil has reached an optimum tempera-
ture. The operator can activate the RPM toggle to
FULL
during this period, however the RPM will not increase
until that optimum temperature is achieved.
There is a seat sensor on the machine that will not allow the engine RPM to go above idle speed if the opera-
tor is not seated. Therefore, the operator must be seated AND the Cold Weather Start circuit must be disen-
gaged in order for to achieve full RPM speed.
