„ Frost or LP Gas odor indicates a propane tank leak.
Inspect or repair immediately. If propane tank is defective
DO NOT use.
„ Propane tank should never be completely fi lled. Allow
for volumetric expansion. Fill to about 80% of the water
capacity of the tank.

SAFETY INFORMATION
„ If the battery liquid (dilute sulfuric acid) comes into
contact with eyes, rinse eyes immediately with plenty
of water and contact the nearest doctor or hospital to
seek medical attention.

TRANSPORTING SAFETY
CAUTION
„ NEVER allow any person or animal to
stand underneath the equipment while
lifting.
„ NEVER lift or transport screed with
power unit attached.
„ Ride-on screeds are very heavy and awkward to move
around. Use proper heavy lifting procedures.
NOTICE
„ Machine can be transported on fl atbed truck of proper
weight capacity.
„ The easiest way to lift the screed is to utilize the lift loops
that are welded to the frame. These lift loops are located
to the left and right sides of the operator's seat.
A strap or chain can be attached to these lift loops,
allowing a forklift or crane to lift the screed up onto and
off of a slab of concrete. The strap or chain should have
a minimum of 2,000 pounds (1,000 kg) lifting capacity
and the lifting gear must be capable of lifting at least this
amount.
„ Before lifting, make sure that the lift loops are not
damaged.
„ Always make sure crane or lifting device has been
properly secured to the lift loops of the equipment.
„ ALWAYS shutdown engine before transporting.
„ NEVER lift the equipment while the engine is running.
„ Tighten fuel tank cap securely and close fuel cock to
prevent fuel from spilling.
