1.2 Machine Description and Intended Use

This machine is a ride-on concrete finishing trowel. The Wacker

Neuson Ride-On Trowel consists of a frame onto which are mounted

a gasoline or diesel engine, a fuel tank, a water tank, two gearboxes

joined by a drive shaft, and an operator’s platform with controls and a

seat. A set of metal blades is connected to each gearbox. A ring

guard surrounds the blades. The engine rotates the blades via the

gearboxes and a clutch mechanism. The rotating blades ride on the

surface of curing concrete, creating a smooth finish. The operator,

who sits on the operator’s platform, uses the controls and the throttle

pedal to control speed and direction of the machine.

This machine is intended to be used for floating and burnishing curing

concrete.

This machine has been designed and built strictly for the intended use

described above. Using the machine for any other purpose could

permanently damage the machine or seriously injure the operator or

other persons in the area. Machine damage caused by misuse is not

covered under warranty.

The following are some examples of misuse:

• Using the machine as a ladder, support, or work surface

• Using the machine to carry or transport passengers or equipment

• Using the machine to finish inappropriate materials such as slur-

ries, sealers, or epoxy finishes

• Operating the machine outside of factory specifications

• Operating the machine in a manner inconsistent with all warnings

found on the machine and in the Operator’s Manual

This machine has been designed and built in accordance with the

latest global safety standards. It has been carefully engineered to

eliminate hazards as far as practicable and to increase operator

safety through protective guards and labeling. However, some risks

may remain even after protective measures have been taken. They

are called residual risks. On this machine, they may include exposure

to:

• Heat, noise, exhaust, and carbon monoxide from the engine

• Chemical burns from the curing concrete

• Fire hazards from improper refueling techniques

• Fuel and its fumes, fuel spillage from improper lifting technique

• Personal injury from improper lifting techniques

• Cutting hazards from sharp or worn blades
