Instructions for the operators.

• The screed is a nishing machine; there is a technique to its operation. The TRAVEL SPEED, VIBRATORY FREQUENCY, and
FEEDING of the screed MUST all be controlled!
• Knowing how the winches operate before you start is essential.
• To what do you hook the cables? And when do you move them?
• Pay attention to safety with the cables.
• Tools and replacement parts should always be readily available.
Instructions for the labourers.
• When the screed is moving, 1 labourer per 1.5 to 3m of screed is required. This depends on slump of the concrete and travel
