or a fire. The overcurrent protection will not protect the operator from an electrical shock due to improper grounding practice, frayed or cracked extension cords, or other defective electrical com- ponents. This exposure to electrical shock increases greatly whenever the equipment is used around water or other conductive fluids. The operator will be provided with electrical shock protection whenever the machine is connected to a circuit that has a Ground Fault Circuit Breaker. The Ground Fault Circuit Breaker will open the circuit whenever it senses a fault current, greater than a few milliamps, in the ground path. If a receptacle with a Ground Fault Circuit Breaker is not available, a Portable Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter [MM] [See FIG. 7] can be used at the branch receptacle to provide the same level of protection.
Gasoline Model:
•Engine Fuel: Check the engine operation manual. Unleaded gasoline is recommended.
•Engine Oil: Put the AXLE in the OPERATION POSITION [F] [See FIG. 11] so that the engine is in a horizontal position, then, check that the engine oil level is correct. Check the oil level frequently to ensure that the level never falls below that specified in the engine operation manual. If the oil level is low, add SAE 10W30, service classification SF or SG oil (for normal conditions) as recommended in the engine operation manual. DO NOT overfill engine with oil!
•Before starting the engine verify that the Throttle Lever [L] is between the START [N] and STOP [M] position. This will allow the engine to be started while the clutch is disengaged. NOTE: The engine clutch will engage at 1800 RPM, and the Accessory Disks [P] will begin to rotate.
•Before starting the engine, verify that the engine does NOT exceed 20 degrees angle of inclination when the unit is in operation.
WARNING: Run the machine only if the grinding heads are on the ground. Raising the front of the machine with the engine or motor running could cause injury or death to
4.Tool Installation
1)Rear Axle Position (See FIG. 11): Make sure the Axle is in the Transport Position [E]. Using TABLE 3 (below) install the Axle Stop Bolts [G] in the proper position for the tool being mounted. The Axle Stop Bolts [G] are factory installed in the F2 position.
Table 3 shows the tools specified by our company. Tools from other manufactures may fit onto this machine. Measure “Tool Height” to determine the proper axle position (See TABLE 4) for these tools.
TABLE 3
Rear Axle Positions (See FIG. 11)
Tool | Tool Height | Axle Position | |
|
|
| |
Grinding Stones | 2.0” (51 mm) | F2 | |
Tungsten Carbide Block | 2.1” (53 mm) | F2 | |
Diamond Segment | 2.1” (53 mm) | F2 | |
Block | |||

Star wheels | 2.25” (57 mm) | F2 | |
Beam Cutter Wheels | 2.25” (57 mm) | F2 | |
TC Wheels | 2.15” (54 mm) | F2 | |
Diamond Disks | 2” (51 mm) | F2 or E2 | |
Scrubbing Pad | 1.7” (43.2 mm) | F3 | |
(with Adapter) | |||

If the tool to be installed is not listed in TABLE 3: a) Measure the “Tool Height”.
TABLE 4
Tool Height for Axle Positions (See FIG. 1)
Axle Position | Minimum Tool Height |
F1 | 2.44” (62 mm) |
F2 | 2.00” (50.8 mm) |
F3 | 1.69” (42.9 mm) |
F4 | 1.00” (25.4 mm) |
b)Using TABLE 4, find a “Minimum Tool Height” equal to, or greater than, the measured tool height.
c)Referencing FIG. 11, install and tighten the Axle Stop Bolts [G] in the Axle Position (F1, F2, etc.) determined from step b) above.
2)Raise Front Shield (A): Loosen the three (3) Capscrews [B] that hold the Front Shield [A] in position. Raise the Front Shield to its upper position, then tighten the Capscrews [B] to hold it in place.
3)Tilt Machine Backwards: When on a flat surface, tilt the machine backward until the Handles [FF] rest on the ground. If you are not sure the machine will stay in this position, add a weight or other device to the handle to secure them to the ground.
WARNING: Make sure the machine is stable when the front end is raised into the air! Secure the machine in this position if you are not sure about its stability. Secure machine BEFORE starting attachment of the tools to the accessory disks!
4)Tool Installation on Accessory Disk [P]: See FIG. 14, FIG. 15, FIG. 16, FIG. 26, FIG. 27
a)Place the Tool [GG 1] so that it rests against the back and outside of the tool holding area of the Accessory Disk [P]. Place the Wooden Wedge [U] between to the inside
