OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATION OF THE MACHINE
Your Powr-Flite Floor Machine is ready for operation as soon as it is unpacked. Remove the
machine from the pallet and discard bolts.
Before beginning any operation, please read your Kawasaki Owners Manual.
The unit comes shipped without fuel in the tank. Be careful not to overfill the tank. The best
method for filling the tank is to have the tank weighed at the filling station. The full steel tank
should weigh no more than 43 pounds.
Check the engine oil level. The unit will come shipped with oil. Always keep the engine oil level
between the full and add marks on the dipstick. Replace the oil by performing the following
steps:
- Park your propane burnisher on a level surface and make sure the engine is stopped.
- Turn the oil cap counter clockwise and then lift from the fill tube.
- Wipe the dip stick clean and push it back into the oil fill tube until the cap seats, and
then withdraw it to check the oil level. (Do not screw in to check level.) Oil level should be
between the “ADD” and “FILL” marks. Add oil if necessary.
- Replace oil cap and tighten.
- If the oil is low, add API Service Classification SF, SG, SH, or SJ oil having a SAE viscosity
grade appropriate for the expected temperatures as indicated in the Kawasaki Owners
Manual.
The machine is shipped with the battery connected.
Inspect all fuel hoses and fittings for leaks. Repair any leaks immediately.
Check the carb filter and air filter for debris. Clean and replace if necessary.
Connect fuel hose to tank by (hand tightening) the hose fitting to the tank. Make sure the
connection is tight to prevent leaks.
