STARTING PROCEDURE: *COLD CLIMATE
Follow same procedure as above but allow longer warm-up period
– 3 to 5 minutes. In cold
weather, oil is much heavier to move and requires more time to work its way into the moving
parts. If maximum power is not attained, allow further warm-up time.

STOPPING PROCEDURE
❖
Throttle engine down.
❖
Turn off stop switch.

TRANSPORTING
When transporting the trowel, always keep the handle folded and the blades flat on the floor to prevent
damage to the pitch control system. Always keep the floating disc underneath the blades to protect
them against damage.
CAUTION:
Never lift the trowel by the rotating ring; use the hoist hook or handle provided
on the trowel. Remove the float disc when lifting machine more than 100cm
(40in). The floating disc could fall off.

LUBRICATION
❖
ENGINE OIL:
The long life and successful operation of any piece of machinery is
dependent on frequent and thorough lubrication. Before using the trowel, always
check your engine for oil. Use proper engine oil as recommended in the engine
manufacturer’s manual. Fill crankcase to levels as recommended.
❖
SPIDER PLATE :
The trowel arm on the spider plate does not require lubrication. If a
trowel arm becomes jammed, this is probably due to a bent arm, which will require
replacement. Appropriate “winterize” steps should be taken if the machine is going to
be stored for long periods of time.
❖
GEARBOX:
In operation the gearbox lubricant is in a fluid state. When the machine is
stopped the lubricant returns to a gel state. It will only be necessary to inspect the
sealed components if the outside of the gearbox gets too oily or otherwise shows
evidence of a leak. If this happens, clean the machine thoroughly and look for leaks.
Effect necessary repairs immediately. Use SHELL TIVELA COMPOUNDS ‘A’ (0.3L,
10.1oz.) gear oil or equivalent to top up the gear box after any maintenance to the
internal components.
