flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion from
misuse of fuel can cause severe burns and even
death.
STARTING THE POWER TROWEL

"close" position. If the engine is hot, set choke
at "open" position.
3. Move the throttle lever slightly to the left.
4. Pull the starter grip gently until resistance is
felt, then pull briskly.
NOTE: If the engine oil level is low, the engine
will not run.
NOTE: If engine does not run, check the oil level
and add oil if needed.
5. Leave the engine run idle for 5 minutes for
warm-up.

BEFORE OPERATION
All safety instructions must be read and ob-
served clearly before starting to operate; lack of

• Check all bolts, nuts and belts and tighten it if
there is any looseness.
• Check the oil level. If the oil level is low, add
fresh oil.

OPERATION
CAUTION: Each time the high-speed op-
eration is not required, reduce engine speed to
2500 ~ 3000 rpm by moving the speed control
10

trowel and to avoid injury.
CAUTION: If the engine has been running
strongly, do not stop abruptly at full load. Re-
duce the speed (load) and let the engine run at
idle for a few minutes.
