clothing or skin, rinse skin or clothing immediately
with plenty of water.
■ In case the battery liquid, (dilute sulfuric acid), comes in contact

then contact the nearest doctor or hospital and seek medical
attention.
The battery contains acids that can cause injury to the eyes and
skin.  To avoid eye irritation, 
always wear safety glasses or face
shielding.  Use well insulated gloves when picking the battery
up.  Use the following guidelines when handling the battery.
■ Use chock-blocks at each wheel when parked to prevent
trailer from rolling.
■ Use the trailer's swivel jack to adjust the trailer height to a
level position while parked.
■ Avoid sudden stops and starts.  This can cause the trailer to
skid or jack-knife.  Smooth, gradual starts and stops will
improve towing.
■ Avoid sharp turns.
■ Trailer should be adjusted to a level position at all times
when towing.
■ Raise and lock trailer wheel stand in the "UP" position when
transporting.

Connect and test electric brake operation.
Secure portable power cables in cable tray with tie wraps.
■ DO NOT drop the battery.   Any impact to
the battery may cause it to explode.
■ DO NOT expose the battery to open flames,
sparks, lit cigarettes etc.  The battery
contains combustible gases and liquids.  If
these gases and liquids come in contact
with a flame or spark an explosion can occur.
ALWAYS
  keep the battery charged.  If the
battery is not charged a buildup of combustible gas will occur.
ALWAYS
  keep battery cables in good working condition.
Repair or replace all worn cables.
ALWAYS
  disconnect the 
negative battery terminal before
performing service on the trowel.
ALWAYS
  recharge the battery in a vented air environment

Conform to 
Department of Transportation (DOT) Safety
Towing Regulations before transporting trowel on public
roads.
To reduce the possibility of an accident while transporting the
trowel on public roads, always make sure the trailer that supports
the trowel and the towing vehicle are in good operating condition
and both units are mechanically sound.
Transporting

trailer complies with all local and state safety transportation
laws.  Refer to the following "

The following list of suggestions should be used when towing
your trowel:
■ Make sure the hitch and coupling of the towing vehicle are
rated equal to, or greater than the trailer "gross vehicle weight
rating" (GVWR) of 6,000 lbs.
ALWAYS
  inspect the hitch and coupling for wear.  NEVER
tow a trailer with defective hitches, couplings, chains, etc.
■ Check the tire air pressure on both towing vehicle and trailer.
Trailer tires should be inflated to 50 psi cold.  Also check
the tire tread wear on both vehicles.
ALWAYS
