BA-SERIES TROWEL— CONTROLS AND COMPONENTS

Figures 3 shows the location of the basic controls or components,
for the BA-Series trowel. Listed below is a brief explanation of
each control or component

1. Quick Pitch™ Control Handle – To adjust the pitch of
the blades, grasp the handle then squeeze and either move
the handle forward or backward to achieve the desired
blade pitch.

2. Handlebar Adjuster – Change the angle/height of the
handle bars by loosening star wheel, adjust handlebars to
desired location, tighten starwheel firmly to hold handlebars
in that position.

3. Hand Grip/Handle Bar – When operating the trowel, place
both hands on each grip to maneuver the trowel. Replace
hand grips when they become worn or damaged.

4. Throttle Control Grip – Controls the speed of the engine.
Rotate the hand grip away from the operator to increase
engine speed (high), toward the operator to decrease
engine speed (low).

5. Throttle – Controls engine speed when throttle control
grip is rotated.

6. Hand Grip/Handle Bar – When operating the trowel, place
both hands on each grip to maneuver the trowel. Replace
hand grips when they become worn or damaged.

15. Engine – This trowel uses Honda, Robin and Briggs and
Stratton type gasoline engines.

16. Trowel Arm – NEVER operate the trowel with a bent,
broken or out of adjustment trowel arm. If the blades show
uneven wear patterns or some blades wear out faster than
others, the trowel arm may need to be adjusted. Use the
trowel arm adjustment tool P/N 1817 to adjust the trowel
arms.

17. Blades – This tro wel is equipped with combination blades.
These blades are versatile and should take care of most
troweling needs. In addition float discs can be attached to
the trowel arms that will allow the trowel to float on "wet"
concrete.

18. V-Belt Cover – Remo ve this cov er to gain access to the V ­belt. NEVER operate the trowel with this cover removed.

20. Stabilizer Ring – Reduces trowel arm vibration. Helps
stabilize trowel arm.

7. Centrifugal Engine-Off Safety Switch – In the event the
operator loses control of the trowel, this switch will shut­down the engine.

8. Auxiliary Lifting Tube - Use this tube to lift the trowel onto
a slab. T ube is to be inserted into socket located in front of
the gearbox.

9. Weights – The trowel may be equipped with two 4.5 kg
(10 lb.) weights. The weights may be removed to reduce
the operating weight of the trowel.

10. Trowel Lifting Point – Insert the auxiliary lifting tube here.
See Figure 21.

11. Pitch Control (standard models) - Turn this "Star Wheel"
clockwise for increase blade pitch, and counter-clockwise
for decrease blade pitch.

12. Clutch Lever - Clutch engagement le ver . When this le ver
is engaged, the blades will begin to rotate. May be used
with either Quick Pitch™ or Standard handle.

13. Main Tube - When disassembling components inside the
tube ex ercise extreme CAUTION! Tube is spring-loaded,
sev ere injury could result if not disassembled correctly .

14. Guard Ring- NEVER! put hands or feet inside guard ring.

BA-SERIES TROWEL— BASIC ENGINE

Figure 4. Engine Controls and Components

INITIAL SERVICING

The engine (Figure 4) must be checked for proper lubrication and
filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the manufacturers engine
manual for instructions & details of operation and servicing. The
engine shown above is a HONDA engine, operation for other
types of engines may vary somewhat.

1. Fuel Filler Cap – Remove this cap to add unleaded
gasoline to the fuel tank. Make sure cap is tightened
securely. DO NOT ov er fill.

DANGER

Adding fuel to the tank should be done only
when the engine is stopped and has had an
opportunity to cool down. In the event of a fuel
spill, DO NOT attempt to start the engine until
the fuel residue has been completely wiped
up, and the area surrounding the engine is dry .

2. Throttle Lever – Used to adjust engine RPM speed (lever

).

3. Engine ON/OFF Switch – ON position permits engine
starting, OFF position stops engine operations.

4. Recoil Starter (pull rope) – Manual-starting method. Pull
the starter grip until resistance is felt, then pull briskly and
smoothly.

, lever back toward operator

5. Fuel Valve Lever – OPEN to let fuel flow , CLOSE to stop
the flow of fuel.

6. Choke Lever – Used in the starting of a cold engine, or in
cold weather conditions. The choke enriches the fuel
mixture.

7. Air Cleaner – Prevents dirt and other debris from entering
the fuel system. Remove wing-nut on top of air filter
cannister to gain access to filter element.

NOTE

8. Spark Plug – Provides spark to the ignition system. Set
spark plug gap according to engine manufacturer's
instructions. Clean spark plug once a week.

9. Muffler – Used to reduce noise and emissions.

10. Fuel Tank – Holds unleaded gasoline. For additional
information refer to engine owner's manual.

11. Oil Drain Plug – Remove this plug to remove oil from the
engine's crankcase.

12. Dipstick/Oil Filler Cap – Remove this cap to determine if
the engine oil is low. Add oil through this filler port as
recommended in Table 3.

Operating the engine without an air
filter, with a damaged air filter, or a
filter in need of replacement will
allow dirt to enter the engine, causing
rapid engine wear .

Clip-On Float Blades (Optional)

These blades will clip (Figure 34) on to an existing installed blade,
allowing your finisher to float on “wet” concrete so that the
troweling operation can begin as early as possible. They are
easily removable, so that after the floating operation, when the
concrete is sufficiently cured, they can be removed to expose the
finish blades for continued troweling.

Float Discs (Optional)

These round discs (Figure 35) attach to the spiders and allow the

ring “rock up and down” relative to the ground?

Spider Removal

1. Once it is determined that an adjustment is required, remove
the spider assembly from the gearbox shaft as follows:

a. Locate the cone point square head set screw (Figure 41)

and attached jam nut found on the side of the spider
assembly.

b. Loosen the jam nut and cone point square head set

c. If the trowel is equipped with an outer stabilizer ring

screw, and carefully lift the
of the spider assembly . A slight tap with a rubber mallet
may be necessary to dislodge the spider from the main
shaft of the gearbox.

(Figure 42), remove the four bolts at the end of each
spider arm.

Trowel Arm Adjustment

Shown in Figure 47 is the adjustment fixture with a trowel arm
inserted. As each trowel arm is locked into the fixture, the arm bolt
is adjusted to where it contacts a stop on the fixture. This will
consistently adjust all of the trowel arms, keeping the finisher as
flat and evenly pitched as possible.

1. Locate the trowel arm adjustment tool P/N 1817. Set the
adjustment tool for a clock-wise blade rotation, meaning the
fixture arm is in the "UP" position.

3. Un-screw the locking bolts on the adjustment tool, and place
the trowel arm into the adjustment fixture channel as shown
in Figure 48. A

adjustment bolt with the fixture adjustment bolt.

4. Using an allen wrench, tighten the locking bolts on the
adjustment tool and securely lock the trowel arm in place.

5. Loosen the locking nut on the trowel arm lever , then turn the
trowel arm adjusting bolt until it barely touches (.25 mm
[.010in.]) the adjusting bolt on the fixture.

6. After the correct adjustment has been made, tighten lock nut
on trowel arm lever to lock in place.

7. Loosen locking bolts on adjustment fixture, and remove
trowel arm from fixture.

8. Repeat steps 2-7 for the remaining trowel arms.

Re-Assembly

Hand Clutch - Optional CE Compliant Trowels

CE compliant trowels are equipped with one of two types of hand­operated clutches instead of an automatic centrifugal clutch. Both
are belt-tightener type clutches and operate by removing slack in
the V-belt which then transmits power from the engine to the
gearbox.

There are two reasons to adjust the hand clutch: 1) operator
comfort; 2) initial belt stretch and break-in.

The easiest and most simple adjustment is to adjust the clutch
cable housing using the adjustment nut (Figure 48) located on the
clutch lever. Rotating the nut provides either more or less
(depending upon the direction of rotation) clutch engagement.

Hand Clutch Disengagement

1. Start the trowel as outlined in the "
this manual. Move the throttle lever so that the engine is
running about 1/4 to 1/3 of full speed.

2. Grip the trowel handle firmly and carefully engage the clutch
by squeezing the clutch lever toward the handle with your left
hand. After the trowel is stabilized and you feel comfortable
with its operation, use your right hand to adjust the housing
adjustment nut.

3.

Rotating the nut so that it backs out of the lever housing
increases the engagement and also the squeezing force
required to keep it engaged.

Too much squeezing force may cause premature hand
fatigue. Too little squeezing force may cause belt slippage
and premature belt wear. Each operator should experiment
with the adjustment to get the optimum combination of
squeeze force and belt grip.

4. After initial break-in (approximately 8 hours) the above
procedure should be repeated to attain optimum operator
comfort and belt wear.

After considerable belt wear, the adjustments mentioned

5.

above may have a little or no effect on clutch engagement. If
this is the case, the belt should be replaced.

WARNINGWARNING

ALWAYS install pans either on the work area or on an area
that is next to and level with the work area. DO NOT lift the
trowel when the pans are attached.

Refer to Figure 49 when installing pans onto finisher blades.

1. Lower finisher onto pan with blades (item #1) adjacent to Z-

Clips (item #4).

2. Rotate blades into position under Z-Clips. Ensure that the

blades are rotated in the direction of travel when the machine
is in operation or use the engine to rotate the blades into
position.

3. Attach the blade tie-downs (item #3) to the far side of the Z-

Clip brackets (item #4) with tie-down knobs (item #2) as
shown in figure 49.

4. Check to make certain that the blade edges are secured

under the Z-Clips and the tie-downs are secured completely

over the edges of the blade bar before the machine is put back
into operation.
