4 Transport and storing
4.1 Securing for transport
Before transporting the machine, always remove the blades and the plate.
4.2 Transport procedure
Conform yourself to work regulations, in order to transport the machine safely.
To lift the machine, use the lifting eye. Make sure that your lifting device is securely fastened to the
lifting eye.
4.3 Long period of inactivity
If the machine is not going to be used for a long period, completely clean the machine and
disassemble the tools. The storage site must be clean, dry and at a constant temperature.
5 Operating the machine
5.1 Site of work
•
•
•
•
Remove from the site anything, which might hinder the working procedure!
Make sure the site is sufficiently well lit!
Make sure you have a continual adequate view of the working area so you can intervene in the
working process at any time!
Keep other staff out of the area, so you can work securely.
5.2 Preparing the site
Prepare the concrete as for manual trowelling. Assure a well levelled surface (we recommend the
use of a beam or better a vibrating screeder). When slab has set sufficiently firm so that the
operator can walk on it, leaving only a slight impression (approx.3mm), it is ready for the floating
operation.
5.3 Floating and finishing operation
To use the machine correctly, you must face it with the two hands on the handle.
Handling the machine
Operate the machine from right to left as shown in the following drawing:
To move the machine:
• Forward (I on the following drawing), turn the handle clockwise.
• Backward (II), turn the handle counterclockwise.
• To the left (III), pull up the handle.
11
•
To the right (IV), push down the handle.
Tilting the blades
Floating the slab is done with the blades nearly flat on the surface of the concrete; however it is
recommended that the blades are just slightly tilted to avoid the suction and drag created in normal
operation of float blades on wet concrete. For the finishing operation, tilt the blades. Start with a
small pitch of 4 to 6 mm. After each finishing pass, continue to tilt blades.
Depression or high spot
To fill a depression or cut down a high spot, simply move the machine back and forward over the
area until the desired surface is obtained.
IMPORTANT: Do not allow the machine to stand in one spot on wet concrete – remove the
machine from the slab when it is not used.
CAUTION: when the machine is switched off, the tools will continue turning slowly to complete stop.
Be therefore very careful to avoid injuries.
