The following instructions were compiled to provide you information on how to obtain long and

trouble free use of the unit. Periodic maintenance of this unit is essential. Read the manual in its

entirety and follow the instructions carefully. Failure to do so may injure yourself or a bystander.

3.2 BEFORE STARTING

The following Pre-start-up inspection must be performed before the start of each work

session or after every four hours of use, whichever is first. If any fault is discovered, the

compactor must not be used until the fault is rectified.

a) Thoroughly inspect the trowel for signs of damage. Check components are present

and secure. Pay special attention to the belt drive safety guard fitted between

the engine and the vibrator unit.

b) Check the engine oil level and top up as necessary.

c) Check the engine fuel level and top up as necessary.

d) Check for fuel and oil leaks.

3.4 TO STOP

1. Push the throttle lever to “O” position.

2. Turn the key switch to “O” (off).

3. Close the fuel valve.

3.5 APPLICATION

The walk-behind trowels offer a reliable and high performance solution for concrete finishing,

trowelling small surfaces, edges and corners.

3.6 OPERATION

After the engine starts, let it warm up by idling for a few minutes.

Test the safety kill switch. If you have the centrifugal type clutch, try momentarily switching the

kill switch to the OFF position. If your safety kill switch is working properly, the engine on your

finisher should stop.

Get into the operator’s position behind the handle. With a secure foothold and a firm grasp on

the handless slowly increase the engine speed until the desired blades speed is obtained. If

your finisher has a hand clutch, set your engine speed with the throttle, then pull on the hand

clutch is fully engaged.

To maneuver the machine, gently lift up on or press down on the main trowel handle. To move

the machine to the operator’s left, lift up on the handle, to move machine to the right -push

down on the handle.

The best method for finishing concrete is to slowly walk backwards with the machine, guiding

the machine from side to side as you do so. See the diagram in the “Suggested Training

Checklist” at the end of this manual.

4.2 V-BELT AND CLUTCH

4.2.1 CHECKING THE V-BELT

After 200 hours of operation, remove the upper belt cover to check the V-belt tension. Tension

is proper if the belt bends about 10mm when depressed strongly with finger between shafts.

Loose or worn V-belts reduces power transmission efficiency, causing weak compaction and

reduces the life of the belt itself.

!

WARNING

NEVER attempt to check the V-belt with the engine running. Severe

injury can occur if your hand gets caught between the V-belt and the

clutch. Always use safety gloves.

4.2.2 REPLACING THE V-BELT

Remove the belt covers. Engage an offset wrench or the like to vibrator pulley (lower) fastening bolt.

Engage waste cloth or the like at midway of V-belt on the left side and while pulling it back

strongly, rotate the offset wrench clockwise so that the V-belt will come off.

4.2.3 CHECKING THE CLUTCH

Check the clutch simultaneously with V-belt checking. With belt removed, check outer drum

of the clutch for seizure and “V” groove for wear or damage with your eyes. Clean the “V”

groove as necessary. Wear of lining or shoe should be checked with running check. If the

shoe is worn, power transmission becomes deficient and slipping will result.

!

CAUTION

Whenever the compactor’s vibration becomes weak or lost during

normal operation regardless of operation hours, check the V-belt and

clutch immediately.

4.3 AIR CLEANER

A. The air filter element should be cleaned because a clogged air cleaner can

cause poor engine starting, lack of power and shorten engine life substantially.

B. To clean or replace air filter loosen the wing nut on the air filter housing, remove

the cover and take out air filter cartridge. If only cleaning of the air filter is desired

blow through the air filter cartridge from the inside, moving a jet of dry

compressed air up and down until all dust is removed.

4.4 SPARK PLUG

Check and clean spark plugs regularly. A fouled, dirty spark plug may cause hard starting

and poor engine performance. Set spark plug gap to recommended clearance. Refer to

engine manual.

!

WARNING

The muffler and engine cylinder become very hot during operation and

remain hot for a while after stopping the engine. Allow engine to cool

before removing spark plug.

NOTICE: A loose spark plug can become very hot and may cause

engine damage.
