NOTICE
Trowel blades should be changed when they fail to finish concrete in a satisfactory manner.
Blades are a vital part of finishing concrete. This trowel, or finisher, has been designed to finish concrete and the blades are built to stringent quality standards out of the finest steel.
If you need replacement blades, consult the parts list in this manual for part numbers and order them from your Multiquip parts dealer or importer.
Combo Blades
This trowel is equipped with combination float/finish (Figure
36)blades as original equipment.These blades have been designed for optimum performance in both the floating and finishing operations.These blades are versatile and should take care of most troweling needs.
Clip-On Float Blades (Optional)
These blades will clip (Figure 38) onto an existing installed blade, allowing your finisher to float on “wet” concrete so that the troweling operation can begin as early as possible. These blades are easily removable, so that after the floating operation, when the concrete is sufficiently cured, they can be removed to expose the finish blades for continued troweling.

Float Discs (Optional)
These round discs (Figure 39) attach to the spiders and allow the machine to “float” on “wet” concrete. The disc design allows early floating and easy movement from wet to dry areas. They are also very effective in embedding large aggregates and surface hardeners.

Finish Blades (Optional)
These blades (Figure 37) have been specifically designed for finish operations with this trowel. They will provide a premium surface finishing capability from your trowel.They should only be used after the concrete has set to the point where the trowel does not sink into the concrete when placed on it.
