As with all other NORTON products, the operator will immediately appreciate the attention given to detail and quality of materials used in construction. The machine and its component parts are assembled to high standards assuring long life and minimum maintenance. 2.2 Purpose of use The Clipper Mechanical Trowel CT601MP is designed for onsite finishing operations on wet concrete floors. It is not designed for any other purpose. 7 2.3 Layout Handle (1) Jig welded steel construction including 2 rubber grips. A dead-man handle (7) allows the operator to work safely and to stop the machine at any moment. The angle of the machine arm can be adjusted to operate the machine comfortably. Pitch of the blades (2) The pitch of the blades is controlled over a knob on the handle. Belt drive and belt cover (3) A centrifugal clutch inside the engine pulley drives the gear shaft through V-Belts. It allows to gradually engage the tool rotation. The drive assembly is enclosed in a metal guard. Safety guard ring (4) A safety guard ring protects the operator from the rotation of the tool while offering an optimum view of the working progress. This ring can rotate, in order to ease the finishing of floor up to walls. Thermal Engine (5) The machine has a GX120 Honda engine, with 2,9kW. The dead-man handle (7) allows an immediate stop of the machine in case of danger. Lifting eye (6) To lift the machine easily and safely, a lifting eye is located over the engine. This allows a balanced lifting of the machine. 8 2.4 Technical Data Engine Honda GX120, 4 strokes, 1 cylinder, 4HP (2,9kW) Filter Dual Filter Fuel Regular unleaded Oil Honda 4-Stroke, or equivalent high detergent, premium quality motor oil certified to meet or exceed U.S. automobile manufacturer’s requirement for service classification SG, SF.

CAUTION: Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine. Return it gently to prevent damage to the starter. As the engine warms up, gradually move the choke lever to the OPEN position. Position the throttle control lever for the maximum engine speed. To stop the engine, release the dead-man handle, move the throttle control lever fully to the right, then turn the engine switch to the OFF position. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position. CAUTION: when the machine is switched off, the tools will continue turning slowly to complete stop. Be therefore very careful to avoid injuries. 10 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. 12 6 Maintenance and servicing 6.1 Maintenance of the machine Whole machine After a damage After a fault Every week End of the day or more often if required During the changing of tool Begin of the day To ensure a long-term quality from the use of the CT601MP, please follow the maintenance plan below: Visual control (general aspect, water tightness) Clean Surface of blades or plate Clean Tension of the blade Check Engine housing Clean Reachable nuts and screws Tighten up Maintenance of the machine Always perform the maintenance with the machine switched off and the tools idle. Lubrication The CT601MP uses life-lubricated bearings. Therefore, you don’t need to lubricate the machine at all. Control and change of the belt To control the tension of belts, open the belt guard, and push on the belts. You should be able to gape the belt as thick as a finger. If the tension is incorrect, loosen the nuts securing the engine on the machine and move the engine until the correct tension is reached. Make sure that the pulleys are aligned correctly. Then retighten the nuts. To change the belts, loosen the nuts securing the engine on the machine and move the engine forward until you can remove the old belts and put a new set of belts on the pulleys. Move the engine in order to tighten the belts in a suitable way. Make sure the pulleys are aligned correctly. Then retighten the nuts to assemble the engine securely. After the control or the change of the belts, always reassemble the belt guard. Cleaning of the machine Your machine will last longer if you clean it thoroughly after each day of work, especially engine and blades or pan. 13 Engine oil Air cleaner filter Check level Change Check Clean Fuel strainer cup Clean Spark plug Check-Clean Fuel line Check (Replace if necessary) Engine oil To change the oil, • Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and drain bolt. • Allow the oil to drain completely. • Dispose of used engine oil in a manner that is compatible with the environment. We suggest you to take used oil in a sealed container to your local recycling centre or service station for reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground or down in a drain. • Reinstall the drain bolt, and tighten it to 18 N.m. • Fill the crankcase with the engine oil to the outer edge of the oil filler neck. • Reinstall the filler cap/dipstick. Air cleaner To service the air cleaner filter, follow these instructions: • Remove the nut, air cleaner cover and wing nut. • Remove the pre air cleaner elements and separate them. • Carefully check both elements for holes or tears and replace if damaged. 14 Every 2 years Every 6 months or 100 hours Each use Perform at every indicated month or operating hour interval, whichever comes first Every 3 months or 50 hours Regular service period First month or 20 hours 6.2 Maintenance of the engine • • • Paper element: tap element lightly several times on a hard surface to remove excess dirt or blow compressed air lightly through the filter from the inside out. Never brush the dirt off; brushing will force dirt into the fibres. Foam element: clean in warm soapy water, rinse and allow to dry thoroughly. Dip the element in clean engine oil and squeeze out all the excess. The engine will smoke during initial start-up if too much oil is left in the foam. Shine a light through the elements, and inspect them carefully. Reinstall the elements if they are free of holes and tears.
