The following section is intended as a basic guide to the ride-on
trowel operation, and is not to be considered a complete guide
to concrete finishing. It is strongly suggested that all operators
(experienced and novice) read “Slabs on Grade ” published by
the American Concrete Institute, Detroit Michigan.
DO NOT use your ride-on power trowel until this section is
thoroughly understood.
eNgINe OIL LeveL
aLWaYS check engine oil before each use.
1. Pull the engine oil dipstick (Figure 6) from its holder.
2. Determine if engine oil is low.
Figure 6. Engine Oil Dipstick
3. If engine oil is low, remove oil filler cap, and add correct
amount of engine oil to bring oil level to a normal safe
level. Use oil as recommended in Table 4.
CauTION
Failure to understand the operation of the trowel could
result in severe damage to the machine or personal injury.

1. Check the gearbox oil level in both gearboxes by
removing the level plug and ensuring that the oil is at
the correct level. See Figure 7.
2. Fill the gearbox just to the level of the fill plug. The
gearbox oil level capacity is 28 oz. (828 ml). Fill gearbox
