BA-SERIES WALK-BEHIND TROWEL — OPERATION & PARTS MANUAL — REV. #2 (03/19/04) — PAGE 19
BA-SERIES TROWEL — ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
Assembly and Installation
Before the trowel can be put into operation there are some
components that must be installed before the trowel can be used.
This section provided general instructions on how to install those
components. Instruction sheet P/N 20485 provides further details
for the handle assembly.
Handle Tube Installation (All Models)
1. Install the
handle tube
to the gearbox as shown in (Figure 5).
The mounting hardware should be contained in the shipping
container.
Figure 5. Handle Tube Installation
The Quick-Pitch™ handle is spring loaded, personal injury
or damage could result from improper handling or
installation. Be careful when installing this component.
Considerable force may be
required when moving the Quick-
Pitch™ T-handle forward or
backward.
2. On Quick-Pitch™ models, pivot the
T-handle
back
(full pitch) (Figure 6). This will relax the spring inside the
handle tube. On either model, spread the handle bar ends
just enough to engage the teeth on the handle tube. Attach
the hand wheel assembly, position handlebar to desired
location, and tighten hand wheel firmly.

2. Feed the throttle cable through the cable housing. Make sure
the throttle indicator is on 25.4mm (1 in.).
3. Connect the throttle cable to the engine. (Figure 8),
Honda
and (Figure 9),
Robin
. There should be a piece of wire
installed on the trowel to show where to route the throttle
cable. When connecting the cable housing, make sure that
no more than
6 mm (1/4 in.)
of the cable housing protrudes
past the housing clamp on the engine.
