OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION
This Manual has been prepared to assist you in the proper maintenance and operation of your Terrco® Machine. Please
bear in mind that your 501-S or 701-S machine is a precise piece of machinery manufactured to exacting standards. In
order for you to obtain maximum use of your machine, we suggest that you read this manual completely and thor-
oughly before attempting to operate your machine. A parts diagram and parts list are included to assist you in order-
ing the proper parts. Always give the machine number and model number when ordering your repair parts.
PRELIMINARY PROCEDURES TO FOLLOW BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE FOR THE FIRST TIME:
DELIVERY OF MACHINE
1. On delivery the contractor should very carefully examine the shipping crate to see that it has not been mishandled.
Before accepting the shipment, uncrate the machine and very carefully examine the machine to ensure that nothing
has been damaged. If damage is noted, request an inspection immediately and request a copy of the claim report.
When accepting the machine from the delivery carrier, note the damage on the bill of lading before signing.
2. Terrco®
WILL NOT
honor any claims for broken, damaged, or missing parts that may have occurred in shipping, as
each machine is checked and inspected before leaving our plant.
The machine has been fully lubricated at the factory before shipping.
ON-THE-JOB INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS-STONES
1. Remove the weights and raise adjustable handle as far forward as possible, lock into position and put one foot on
the rubber-tired wheel.
2. Tip the machine back to the oor so that the handle lays on the oor.
3. Clean stone mounting surface.
4.
IMPORTANT!
Install the plug stones in the following manner. Place the stone rmly into the plug stone holder and
twist.
5. After the stones are installed raise the machine until it is in operating position with all stones on the oor. Lower
handle to position best suited for the operator, and replace the removable weights.
6.
CAUTION!
NEVER ATTEMPT TO START THE MACHINE WHILE LOWERING TO THE FLOOR, as the rear stones will strike
on the corners resulting in thrown stones and possible damage to the machine.
ELECTRICAL AND PLUG-IN INSTRUCTIONS
1. General Instructions
•Always operate your machine with ground faults wired at the electrical source.
•Low voltage is a common occurrence on many terrazzo jobs, and hence it is necessary that the terrazzo contractor
know his incoming voltage and amperage at the machine.
•As a result of the low voltage and the use of a 230 Volt motor, Terrco® has installed a booster box with pre-wired
plugs already connected to your machine.
•If the machine is to operate on an area more than 100 feet from the electrical source it will be necessary to use the
next lower number (larger) size cable from the source to the 100 foot wire cable that we furnished with the machine.
•If additional cable is necessary, be sure all connections are of the proper size and that they are tight.
•As a nal step before starting the machine, we strongly recommend that a voltage reading is taken; this requires very
little time and could save a great deal of trouble.
