Steering

Two control levers located in front of the operator’s seat provide directional control for the STR46 SERIES Ride-On PowerTrowel. Table 4 (Page 26) illustrates the various directional positions of the joysticks and their effect on the ride-on trowel.

All directional references with respect

NOTE to the steering control levers are from the operator’s seat position.

1.Push both the left and right control levers forward. See Figure 11.

5.Try adjusting the pitch of the blades.This can be done with the ride-on trowel stopped or while the trowel is moving, whatever feels comfortable.Test the operation of optional equipment like retardant spray and lights if equipped.

6.Pull both the left and right joysticks backward and repeat steps 3 through 6 while substituting the word reverse for forward.

RIGHT CONTROL LEVER

2.With your right foot quickly depress the right foot pedal halfway.Notice that the ride-on power trowel begins to move in a forward direction. Return both joystick controls to their neutral position to stop forward movement, then remove your right foot from the right foot pedal.

3.Practice holding the machine in one place as you increase blade speed. When about 75% of maximum blade speed has been reached, the blades will be moving at proper finishing speed. The machine may be difficult to keep in one place.Trying to keep the ride-on trowel stationary is a good practice for operation.

4.Practice maneuvering the ride-on trowel using the information listed in Table 4. Try to practice controlled motions as if you were finishing a slab of concrete. Practice edging and covering a large area.

CAUTION

Trowel arms can be damaged by rough handling or by striking exposed plumbing or forms while in operation. ALWAYS look-out for objects which might cause damage to the trowel arms.
