Before you operate or carry out any maintenance on this machine YOU MUST READ and STUDY
this manual.
WARNING
How to assemble the Easy Screed Pro.
1. First determine whether you want to use the Easy Screed Pro as a form-to
form screeder or as a free screeder.
2. The Easy Screed Pro is supplied in 2 components: the power-unit and the
beam
proÕ
le.
3. The power-unit is equipped with a quick disconnect system, with which the
powerunit can be mounted on to the beam proÕ le.
4. To connect the power-unit to the beam proÕ le loosen the 3 wingbolts (2)
about 8mm, until the front clamping plate(3) Õ ts into the collar of the proÕ le.
Now tighten the 3 wingbolts (2).
5. Now unfold the twin control handle, adjust it to the proper height, and tighten the
2
clamps.

Make sure that the unit is mounted between the 2 indication arrows, located on the beam.
CAUTION
6. Make sure that the Easy Screed Pro is properly assembled and that the
ON-OFF
switch is in the
ON
position.
7. Make sure that the fueltank is Õ lled with unleaded fuel only.
8. In case the Easy Screed Pro is used for form-to-form screeding make sure that the forms are set to the right level.
Operation and use of the Easy Screed Pro.
1. Place the Easy Screed Pro beam on the rail supports or if you want to use the Easy Screed Pro as a free screed, directly on the
freshly poured concrete surface.
2. Now start the engine and allow a three minute warming-up period before setting the throttle handle to the desired engine speed.
Before starting the petrol engine read the enclosed operation instructions carefully. Make sure before
starting that the ON-OFF switch is in the ON position.
CAUTION
3. After setting the engine speed start moving
the Easy Screed-Pro backwards, the travel-
speed depends on the consistency of the
concrete.
4. If the Easy Screed Pro vibrates to strong the
centrifugal force needs to be reduced. This
is done by Õ rst removing the vibrator’s
protection cover and adjust the eccentrical
weights to a lower centrifugal force (See below).
A well adjusted screeder will create a level,
smooth and shining surface.
5. After the job is Õ nished, remove the Easy Screed
Pro from the concrete and switch off the petrol
engine.
6. After use, clean the Easy Screed Pro according
to the instructions described in the Maintenance
section of this manual. Place the Easy Screed
Pro on a dry, clean and stable surface.
7. If you do not expect to use the engine for a long period of time, drain the fuel tank and let the engine run at idle speed until the fuel
in the carburettor is used and the engine stops.
Please observe the following instructions:
• Make sure to reÕ ll the fuel tank in time. Do not let the engine run so all the fuel is used. This might cause starting problems.
• Prevent the Easy Screed Pro of sinking into the concrete. After the engine has been switched on, immediately move the Easy
Screed Pro backwards.
• When using a low slump concrete, move the Easy Screed Pro slowly across the surface of the concrete. When using a high slump
concrete, move the Easy ScreedPro faster across the surface of the concrete.
• When the Easy Screed-Pro is used as a wet screed it is recommended to Õ rst compact the freshly poured concrete with a poker
vibrator while at the same time set the height of the Ý oor by means of a laser device.
How to adjust the centrifugal force:
1. Remove the protecting cover of the vibrator by loosening the 2 wingbolts.
2. Loosen the wingbolt of the vibrator and adjust the vibrator in accordance with the indicated positions, refer to previous page.
3. Retighten the wingbolt and reÕ x the protective cover.
NOTE:
It is possible to increase/decrease the centrifugal force by operating the throttle.
