Trowel Operation
1. Cruise Control
This machine comes standard with a cruise control function. The
cruise will allow the operator to remove their foot off the foot pedal
and still maintain rotor function.
To use the cruise control, enable the foot switch so that the rotors
engage, then pull up on the cruise control button. To release the
cruise control, press down on the center button on the cruise control
then pull up slightly to disengage.
2. Pitch Adjustment
Different pitch angles are needed as you work the different stages of the concrete. When changing or setting
pitch (angle of trowel blades), slow the machine down, set the desired degree of pitch on the left side of the
machine and then adjust the right side to match.
To change the pitch, the operator will use the rocker switch located at the top of
either joystick. By pressing the rocker switch towards the inside, the pitch will
decrease, pressing the switch toward the outside of the joystick will increase
the pitch level. (see Figure 2.5).
3. Enable Machine Blades
The machine trowel blades are enabled by the foot pedal (E). Hold down the pedal to enable the rotors to begin
turning, release pressure off the pedal to stop the rotors.
