Lifting the Ride-On Trowel

CAUTION

This ride-on trowel is very heavy and awkward to move around. Use proper heavy lifting procedures and DO NOT attempt to lift the ride-on trowel by the guard rings.

The STX-SERIES Ride-On Power Trowel is designed to be moved and handled several ways.

The easiest way to lift the trowel is to utilize the lift loops that are welded to the frame.These lift loops are located to the left and right sides of the operator’s seat.

A strap or chain can be attached to these lift loops, allowing a forklift or crane to lift the trowel up onto and off of a slab of concrete. The strap or chain should have a minimum 2,000 pounds (1000- kg) lifting capacity and the lifting gear must be capable of lifting at least this amount.

DANGER

NEVER stand under or allow anyone else to stand under the trowel while it is being lifted.
