SECTION 1
SAFETY
Poorly maintained equipment can become a safety hazard! In order for the equipment
to operate safely and properly over a long period of time, periodic maintenance and
occasional repairs are necessary.
• ALWAYS disconnect the battery before servicing the equipment.
• DO NOT attempt to clean or service the machine while it is running. Rotating parts can
cause severe injury.
• DO NOT crank a flooded engine with the spark plug removed on gasoline-powered
engines. Fuel trapped in the cylinder will squirt out the spark plug opening.
• DO NOT test for spark on gasoline-powered engines if the engine is flooded or the smell
of gasoline is present. A stray spark could ignite the fumes.
• DO NOT use gasoline or other types of fuels or flammable solvents to clean parts, espe-
cially in enclosed areas. Fumes from fuels and solvents can become explosive.
• ALWAYS turn engine off and remove key from machine before performing maintenance
or making repairs.
• ALWAYS keep the area around the muffler free of debris such as leaves, paper, cartons,
etc. A hot muffler could ignite the debris and start a fire.
• ALWAYS replace worn or damaged components with spare parts designed and recom-
mended by AEC Corporation.
• ALWAYS disconnect the spark plug on machines equipped with gasoline engines, before
servicing, to avoid accidental start-up.
• ALWAYS switch off the power supply at the battery disconnect before adjusting or main-
taining the electrical equipment.
• ALWAYS keep the machine clean and labels legible. Replace all missing and hard-to
read labels. Labels provide important operating instructions and warn of dangers and
hazards.

Propane Operating Safety
Facts About LP Gas - Propane
As a fuel, Propane gas is unmatched for both safety and dependability. It has been used as a domestic
household fuel for over half a century, and for over thirty years as an internal combustion engine fuel.
Propane is a highly flammable fuel that is contained under pressure as a liquid. Vaporized gas has a
similar explosive force to gasoline and mixtures as low as 2% LP Gas to air may be ignited in a closed
environment. Care should be exercised to avoid escaping vapor as it can freeze skin and cause frost bite.
Vaporized fuel is heavier than air and will collect in the lowest confined space available.
Facts About Propane Tanks
Propane tanks are constructed according to ASME or Federal DOT #4ET20 pressure safety codes.
Including the tank, all valves and fittings are UL Listed. Propane gas is noncorrosive and will not rust the
inside of a tank. Should the tank exterior become damaged or rusted, discontinue use. DO NOT tamper
with tank gauges or safety relief valves. NEVER use a tank not intended for use with a propane buffer.
DO NOT substitute tanks that are used with a barbecue grill, etc. AEC recommends having propane tanks
tested once a year by an authorized National LP Gas Association propane dealer. The fuel tank is supplied
directly from the manufacturer and is void of fuel. This tank must be purged ‘at the time of the first fill.
Local fuel vendors should be familiar with this operation and will provide this service.
Recommended Purge Procedures
How to purge new LP-Gas Buffer cylinders equipped with the Overfill Prevention Device:
New containers may contain vapor, air, or other contaminants. It is essential that these be removed before
filling the container and placing it into service. Air in the container will cause abnormally high pressure,
with the result that the pressure relief valve may open. Air in the system is also likely to cause lean mix-
ture, making ignition difficult. If a cylinder is suspected of being de-pressurized or open to the atmosphere
for a period of time, it must be re-purged as if it were a new container.
Purging of containers should be performed in an approved area (see NFPA 05 8) using NPGA #13 3.89(a)
procedure. To purge a container, the following steps should be taken.
1. Determine if the container pressure is zero. Should the cylinder contain only pressurized air, the
air may be vented directly to the atmosphere through the service valve using an adapter and the
outage valve.
2. Pressurize the container to approximately 15 psig with LP-gas vapor. Never purge with liquid
LP-gas! To do so will cause the moisture vapor to chill and remain in the cylinder. LP gas liquid
also expands 270 times to vapor making the purge process ineffective. Use LP-gas vapor only!
3. Make the connection to the quick coupler (A purge manifold system is most effective). Fully open
the cylinder service valve as well as the outage valve. Vent to a safe atmosphere. A vent stack is
recommended.
4. On Overfill Prevention Device cylinders, the purge time is increased as a result of the new valve
design. Opening the outage valve will help improve the speed of the purge.
5. Repeat #3 and #4 for a total of FIVE purges.
6. Re-pressurize the container with odorized LP-gas vapor to 15 psig.
7. The container is now ready to be filled with LP-gas.
8. Once filled, check all fittings and tank openings for leaks using an approved leak detector solution.
9. The container is now ready to be placed in service. Add DOT and OSHA labels.

SECTION 1
SAFETY
Propane Operating Safety
Symptoms of a non-purge cylinder:
• Relief valve opens due to over pressurized cylinder creating hazardous situation.
• Moisture in the cylinder.
• Buffer operates initially but shuts down when fuel mixture becomes too lean.
Refilling & Storing Propane Tanks
The NFPA Technical Committee prohibits the storage of such containers in buildings. There are few excep-
tions to this rule. In other words, propane tanks should NOT be stored in buildings used by the public or
frequented by anyone passing through or who is working in the building. Full or empty, never leave tanks
in small enclosed areas. The tank(s) must be in a secure, tamper-proof storage enclosure that provides
safety from accident or vandalism. PROPANE TANKS SHOULD ALWAYS BE TRANSPORTED, INSTALLED
AND USED IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION. OVERFILLING PROPANE TANKS IS HAZARDOUS. The tank should
NEVER be completely filled with liquid propane. 80% of the total tank volume is to be considered at ALL
times as full. EXPANSION MUST BE ALLOWED FOR. Propane Buffer tanks are equipped with a fixed liquid
level gauge which contacts the liquid level at 80% of container capacity, allowing 20% for expansion. The
top part of this device must be unscrewed counterclockwise so that vapor can escape through the small
hole in its side, as the tank is refilled. When the escaping vapor starts to give way to liquid, the device
must be quickly closed and the propane nozzle turned off.
‘”IMPORTANT” The engine and the fuel system on your trowel are designed
to run on fuel vapor, not fuel liquid. Overfilling the propane tank will result in
damaging the lock off and/or regulator. This will VOID the WARRANTY on
these components.
“IMPORTANT” This engine is certified to operate on commercial propane (per
GPA STD2140). If you have any questions, contact your propane supplier. LP
mixtures containing higher than 5% propylene should NOT be used.
ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE WORK AREA IS WELL
VENTILATED. PROPANE ENGINES ARE NOT SAFE TO
RUN IN ENCLOSED AREAS!
