Blades should be changed when
they fail to finish concrete in a
satisfactory manner.
Blades are a vital part of finishing concrete. This finisher has been
designed to finish concrete and is built to stringent quality standards
out of the finest trowel steel. If you need replacement blades,
consult your parts list in this manual for part numbers and order
them from your Multiquip parts dealer or importer.
Combo Blades
This trowel was equipped with combination type (Figure 28)
blades as original equipment. These blades have been designed
for optimum performance in both the floating and finishing of
concrete. These blades are versatile and should take care of most
troweling needs.

Optional Float Discs (Pans)
These round discs (Figure 29) attach to the spiders and allow the
machine to " float " on " wet " concrete. The disc design allows early
floating and easy movement from wet to dry areas. They are also
very effective in embedding large aggregates and surface
hardeners.
