3.16 Pitch Adjustment
See Graphic: wc_gr003220
To adjust blade pitch (angle):
A = Twist pitch: turn the pitch adjusting knob (a) clockwise to increase
pitch and counterclockwise to decrease pitch.
B = Pro-Shift®: pull the handle (b) towards the operator to increase
pitch and away from the operator to decrease pitch.
For final finishing stages, it is sometimes desirable to add weights to the trowel guard rings to
increase the burnishing force. Wacker supplies weight kits for this purpose.
Ref. C = Working condition of concrete D = Suggested working pitch
1 Wet surface working stage Flat (no pitch)
2 Wet to plastic working stage Slight pitch (5°)
3 Plastic working stage Additional pitch (10°)
4 Semi-hard working stage to hard
finishing stage (burnishing)
