1. Place trowel on the concrete.
2. Turn the engine switch to the “ON” position.
3. Turn the fuel valve to the “ON” position.
4. Pull the Dead Man Control Handle (a). Press in the black knob (b)and release the handle. Check that the knob
remains inside.
5. Set throttle to slow.
6. Pull the starting cable out by the handle until you feel, a slight resistance. Let the cable run back; in this way
the entire length of the starting cable can be used for starting the engine.
7. Start pulling the starting cable vigorously and at an increasing speed (Do not jerk it violently) until
the engine starts.
8. Run engine at slow speed for a few minutes until the engine warms up.
9. Close the Dead Man Control Handle and check that the black knob has moved outwards.
10. If after several attempts of starting the exhaust begins to emit white smoke, move the speed control
lever to the stop position and pull the starting cable out slowly 5 times.
Repeat the starting procedure.
OPERATING THE MACHINE
NOTE
Always operate the trowel using the Dead Man Control H andle. Always ensure that the black knob is in the
outward position. Do not operate with this knob in the inward position. This is to be used only when or during
starting the engine.
Assembly of the float disc -
(See Picture 10 Page 29)
1. Place the trowel on to the float disc.
2. Rotate the blades so that the blades move underneath the 4 L shaped brackets.
3. Rotate the blade adjustment knob so that the blades rise.
4. Ensure that there is sufficient pressure on the blades and that the disc is tightly attached to the trowel.
NOTE
The trowel is to be used only by experienced operators. They must have the knowledge of when the concrete is
ready to be troweled , the angle of the blades and the operating speed.
These instructions should be used as general guidance only.
Floating concrete
Use the float disc or the blades set at a small angle for floating.
The concrete should be sufficiently set before the floating operation takes place.
This must be determined by the operator.
Floating is done at a low speed. To have the machine move to the right bear down slightly on the handle. Lift gently
on the handle to have machine move to the left.
Do not operate machine in one spot but keep it moving over the surface for either
f
loating or finishing of concrete. If machine is allowed to stand in one spot while not operating , lift up on the handle
to break loose the suction on the trowels and move to a new spot before starting to operate the machine.
