Effective leveling and removal of air bubbles
Removal of the air bubbles is complete after you have
worked the tool throughout each effective range, the con-
crete stops shrinking, and the mortar has risen evenly to
the surface, giving off a light appearance. Gently remove
the operating tool not to leave holes.
NOTE:
•
Vibrating too long in a single place causes concrete
segregation.
•
When the coarse aggregates segregates when
placing concrete, shovel out the coarse aggregate
and put it where there is plenty of mortar. Then use
the tool on it. Don't leave coarse aggregate in the
segregated condition.
When concreting a slope site, always pour from the bot-
tom at the beginning. This way the weight of the freshly
poured concrete and vibration will lead to effective
removal of air bubbles. Conversely, if the pouring is done
first from above, the mortar will separate and eventually
slide to the bottom.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
•
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
