Hour Meter / Tachometer
The hour meter / tachometer records the number
of hours the machine has been powered ON. The
hour meter reading is used to mark recommended
maintenance intervals. It also displays the engine
speed. This meter displays hours when the machine
is turned OFF and engine speed when the machine is
turned ON.
Handle Adjustment
1. The height of the handle can be adjusted by raising
or lowering the handle.
2. If necessary, use a wrench to loosen the nut that
retains the handle in the adjustment bracket.
Fuse
The machine’s electrical circuit is protected by a fuse,
which stops the flow of current in the event of a circuit
overload. Once a fuse blows, it must be replaced. If
the overload that caused the fuse to fail is still present,
the new fuse will fail and the problem must be corrected.
DO NOT bypass any fuse. The ignition fuse is located
on the side of the starter switch panel.
Rok-Bak & Pad Change
1. Close the valve on the propane cylinder, allow the
engine to stop and turn the machine OFF.
2. Remove the propane cylinder.
3. Raise the handle to the full-up position (about a 45°
angle).
4. Lift up on the front of the deck rocking the machine
back until it rests on the handle grips.
5. Remove centering device and inspect pad. If pad
has worn to less than a 1/4” (6mm) thick, replace it.
CAUTION! Carefully inspect the pad holder for cracks
or damage. Replace if necessary.
WARNING! A damaged pad holder rotating at high
speeds may be an extreme hazard if it should come
apart.
6. When lowering the machine down, do not drop the
machine. Slowly lower the machine to the floor until
the wheels are on the ground.
