The following steps are intended as a basic guide to
machine operation, and are not to be considered a complete
guide to concrete finishing. We suggest that all operators
(experienced and novice) read "Slabs on Grade" published by
the American Concrete Institute, Detroit, Michigan. Read
the "Training" section of this manual for more information.
