Handle Height Adjustment
If handle height adjustment is desired, a handle wedge kit can be
purchased for your trowel by ordering Part Number 2576 from
your Multiquip dealer. These wedges are placed between the
handle and the gearbox to adjust the operating height of the
handle. This kit comes complete with wedges, new bolts and
installation instructions. This will move your operating handle
position up or down approximately 3” (76mm).
5. Connect the throttle cable to the engine. Keep in mind there
should be a piece of wire installed on the trowel to show you
where to route the throttle cable. When connecting the cable
housing, make sure that no more than
1/4" (6.4mm) of the
cable housing protrudes past the housing clamp on the
engine (Step 4).
6. After the cable has been installed on the engine, tighten the
clamp on the throttle control, operator position of the handle
to lock the throttle cable at the proper length.
7. These are general instructions. Installation of the throttle
cable may vary for different engine configurations. Please
look for more detailed instructions inside the box containing
the handle. These more detailed instructions should provide
adequate guidance for installing.
