Long Term Storage

1.Remove the battery.

2.Drain fuel from fuel tank.

3.Clean exterior with a cloth soaked in clean oil.

4.Store unit covered with plastic sheet in a moisture and dust-free location out of direct sunlight.

CAUTION

NEVER store the ride-on trowel with fuel in the tank for any extended period of time. Always clean up spilled fuel immediately.

Installing Pans Onto Finisher Blades

These round discs, sometimes referred to as "pans", attach to the spiders arms and allow early floating on wet concrete and easy movement from wet to dry areas. They are also very effective in embedding large aggregates and surface hardeners.

Refer to Figure 29 when installing pans onto finisher blades.

3.Attach the blade tie-downs to the far side of the Z-Clip brackets with tie-down knobs as shown in Figure 29.

4.Check to make certain that the blade edges are secured under the Z-Clips and the tie-downs are secured completely over the edges of the blade bar before the machine is put back into operation.

1.Lift trowel just enough to slide pan under blades. Lower finisher onto pan with blades adjacent to Z-Clips.
