Service and Maintenance
Maintenance
The ESI concrete finisher is designed to give many years of trouble-free operation. It is, however,
important that the simple regular maintenance listed in this section is carried out. It is
recommended that an approved ESI dealer carry out all major maintenance and repairs. Always
use genuine ESI replacement parts, the use of non-genuine ESI parts may void your warranty.
Before any maintenance is carried out on the machine, switch off the engine and disconnect the
spark plug. Always set the machine on level ground to ensure any fluid levels will be correctly
read. Only use recommended oils.
Running In Period
When the concrete finisher is used for the very first time the engine oil must be changed after the
initial running in period. (See engine manual for full details).
Machine Cleaning
Clean the machine after it has been used to prevent the collection of hardened cement. The
blades can usually be cleaned with a high-pressure hose and water while the concrete is still wet.
Hard cement/concrete is very difficult to remove. Immediately replace any labels/stickers should
you notice that they are worn, missing, or damaged.
Changing Blades
Be sure the spark plug is disconnected before changing the blades. Make sure the machine is on a
flat surface; adjust the pitch control so that the blades are flat on the surface.
Remove bolts and lock washers on each concrete finisher arm and remove the blades. Before
fitting new blades, clean all cement/concrete from bottom and side of the concrete finisher. Be sure
the concrete finisher’s edge of the blade is behind the concrete finisher arm. Install bolts and lock
washers on each of the concrete finisher arms and fasten them.
Before carrying out any maintenance on this machine, ensure the engine has
been switched off. The engine should also be allowed to cool as parts of the
engine become hot during use.
CAUTION
Be careful when replacing old blades with new blades. Due to the way the
blades wear, the old blades become very sharp and can cut easily. Wear heavy
duty gloves to avoid injury. BLADES MUST BE REPLACED AS A SET!!!
