Engine Maintenance

Refer to the engine owner’s manual for maintenance
intervals and procedures.

Engine Speed

The engine speed is factory preset according to the speeds
listed in the Specifications section. Do not tamper with the
governor settings. The governor establishes safe operating
limits that must not be exceeded.

Cleaning

Clean the float machine at the end of each working day to
prevent the cement from hardening on the machine. Wash
the dirty parts with a brush and water. Wet the parts exposed
to cement with "stripping" oil (never fuel oil). Do not oil the
rubber moving parts (belts, etc.).

Reduction Gear Oil

Checking the Oil
