Never allow any concrete to harden on the roller screed.
Immediately after use, wash any concrete off the screed.
Be careful not to spray water on the engine while it is still
hot.
To operate the pressure washer, attach a garden hose to the
pump and turn on the water. Next plug in the quick connect
hoses from the pressure washer to the power unit, adjust
the three way valve on the power unit as indicated by the
decal to the “Pressure Washer” position.
“Clean out” plates for the ends of the center strike tubes
(8’and 16’ tubes) should be removed and the ends cleaned
after each use.
Back off the 1-5/8 nut and jam nut on the outside strike
tubes next to the outer plate. Slide the strike tube away
from the middle bracket and clean the ends.
The solid scraper bars that prevent build-up on the drive
tubes should be removed and cleaned as well as the strike
tube wipers mounted in front of the 5 foot sections.
