Once the engine has warmed up, increase engine speed to engage the Clutch (25)
and start vibrating the tool.
The Screed may be pulled or pushed along the form using the Handle (27). It may also
be pulled along the form using Ropes and Grips (35, 36).
The Screed will level the concrete mixture even with the top of the form. During the
Screed operation, use a shovel to fill in any gaps in the concrete. It may be necessary
to make more than one pass along the form to create a smooth and level surface.
In addition to leveling the concrete, the vibration of the Screed improves the characteristics
of the concrete mixture. The vibration causes heavier aggregate elements to sink lower
in the mixture, and smaller elements to come to the top. This results in a smoother
surface which is easier to properly finish .
Once the concrete mixture is properly leveled and the desired surface is achieved, shut
the engine off by turning engine switch to OFF. Remove the Screed from the form and
proceed with standard concrete finishing operations.
Allow the Engine to cool.
After each use of the Screed, rinse it thoroughly with water to remove cement from Wing
Nuts (2) L Bolts (3), and any other parts that may be damaged by cement accumulation.
Wipe down the machine and store it properly. Avoid splashing water on the engine and
the gasoline refill cap.
MAINTENANCE
Keep the Screed clean and dry.
Periodically lubricate the Wing Nuts (2) and L Bolts (3).
Periodically check the Drive Belt (4). Be sure it is tight and in good condition. Replace
the belt if it is cracked or damaged. To replace the belt, remove the four Engine Mount
Bolts (24). Rotate the engine on the Eccentric (11). Pull off the Drive Belt (4). Replace
the belt, rotate the engine back on the eccentric, and replace the engine mount bolts.
Tighten securely.
Check the oil level every time before using the engine. Fill oil if necessary. If oil leaks are
detected, or the engine is using excessive oil, contact a qualified service technician.
Drive Belt Adjustment: Tighten or loosen the Drive Belt by loosening the four Engine
Mount Bolts (24), adjusting the position of the Engine and retightening the bolts. Never
operate the engine while the Engine Mount Bolts are loose.
Have a qualified service technician periodically service the Gasoline Engine (23).
