TROWEL ARM ADJUSTMENT SCREW

When assembling trowel blades to trowel arms, the adjustment screw should NEVER
protrude below the under-side surface to a trowel arm except when using for emergency on-site
adjustment to level trowel blades. If the adjustment screw is not flush with the underside of the
trowel arm, then this will cause the power trowel to bounce and vibrate especially at high
speed. This will also cause the trowel blades to leave an uneven finish on the concrete due to
the blades not being level to one another. Make certain that the adjusting screw is held firmly in
place while tightening the bolt which secures the blade to the trowel arm.
