5.1
Maintaining the Emission Control System
Normal maintenance, replacement, or repair of emission control devices and
systems may be performed by any repair establishment or individual; however,
warranty repairs must be performed by a dealer/service center authorized by the
engine manufacturer. See the supplied engine owner’s manual for the applicable
emission warranty information.
5.2
Periodic Maintenance Schedule
Due to the nature and environment of use, trowels could be exposed to severe
operating conditions. Some general maintenance guidelines will extend the useful
life of the trowel.
1. The initial service for the trowel should be performed after 20 hours of use, at
which time a mechanic (or authorized repair shop) should complete all of the
recommended checks in the schedule on the following pages. The chart is
handy for keeping a record of the maintenance performed.
2. Regular service according to the schedule on the following pages will prolong
the life of the trowel and prevent expensive repairs.
3. Keeping the trowel clean and free from debris is an extremely important
maintenance operation. After each use, the trowel should be cleaned to remove
any dust and debris from the undercarriage and surrounding components. Use
of a power washer will make clean up quick and easy, especially if a non-stick
coating was applied prior to use.
NOTICE:
Over time, if the blades become more than 3/4 worn, the blades must be
changed.
The chart on the following pages lists basic machine and engine maintenance.
Refer to the engine owner’s manual for additional information.
