3. TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
3.1. Machine Description
The double rotary float machine model MK8/10
120 has been designed and constructed to float
concrete and bituminous floors of warehouses,
car parks, cycle tracks, parking areas, pavements,
etc. For this purpose the machine is equipped with
two rotors, one turning clockwise and the other
counter-clockwise.
Both the engine and the operator’s seat are fixed
to a frame connected to both rotors.
The very low position of the seat has the following
advantages:
Superior planarity of the floor surface (as a
result of lowering of the machine barycentre)
Perfect vision
The seat can be adjusted to the most comfortable
driving position for the operator. All the steering
components, joysticks, joints, drive shaft and gear
reductions are protected by a tunnel to prevent
cement encrustations from accumulating over
time which could lead to more rapid wear of the
mechanical components.

5. USE
5.1. Preliminary Checks
Before proceeding with starting and use of the
float machine, do the following:
1. Check the oil level in the engine and, if
necessary, top off (see Par. 4.5).
2. Check the fuel level in the tank and, if
necessary, refuel (see Par. 4.4).
3. Check that all the protection devices are
present and working.
4. Adjust the seat position horizontally to
obtain the best possible working position
(see Par. 3.4).
5. Check that the blade is inclined by at least
1 cm in order to have better control over
the float machine when starting (for
adjustment see Par. 3.5).
6. Ensure that the float machine is
positioned on a flat surface with a
capacity of more than 300 kg/m2and that
there is sufficient space around the float
machine (at least 2 m).
5.2. Starting
In order to prevent slippage and losing
control of the float machine when
starting and during the working phases
the operator must be seated in the
driver’s seat on the float machine and
always hold the accelerator pedal in the
idle position.
To start the float machine operate as follows:
1. Sit in the driver’s seat after appropriately
adjusting its position and with the feet
resting on the footboard.
2. Clos the choke (for petrol-powered
engines only).
3. Position the accelerator hand-lever or
accelerator pedal (Fig.1 No.5) in the idle
position.
4. Turn the ignition key.
5. After starting, open the choke (for petrol-
powered engines only).

10
The engine is started at reduced rpm, the clutch
has not yet engaged and the rotors do not yet
rotate (the clutch engages at 1500 rpm). In order
to prevent slippage which might lead to rapid wear
of the clutch, firmly push the accelerator to reach
a value of 2500 rpm.

For more specific information on starting
consult the engine instruction manual.
5.3. Driving the Float Machine
Use the machine at reduced speed until
you have fully mastered it and all the
possible movements.
To drive the machine in the desired direction,
there are two control joysticks (Fig. 1 No. 10 &
11). Move the joysticks slowly and smoothly. To
stop the float machine movement, return the
joysticks to the rest position. The joystick control
positions and the relevant movements are
described on page 3 of this manual.
5.4. Use
For reasons of stability it is
recommended to use the machine on a
flat, stable and horizontal surface. Do
not use the machine on slopes of more
than 4%-5% gradient.
During the working phases, be
particularly careful not to lose control of
the float machine (for example, due to
too much water on the surface to be
worked).
Check that there are no obstacles or
obstructions on the working surface or
projecting parts which may hinder
rotation of the blades.
Preparing the Surface:
Use a mechanical vibrating float or manual float to
level the floor surface in order to obtain a well-
compacted concrete footing and thus prepare the
ideal surface for floating and finishing. The float
machine does not improve planarity of a badly
floated or levelled floor.
Floating Phase:

IMPORTANT: Before starting the
floating operation, check that the floats
have been mounted correctly on the
blades (Par. 7.5).
The floor is ready for the first pass when the
imprint of the shoe heel sinks into the concrete by
about 2-3 mm when walking on it.
The floating pass intervals depend on the ambient
factor, temperature and atmospheric conditions
(cold or hot season). On average about 250-300
m2of surface are floated in 10 minutes.
When the concrete is still fresh, take care not to
work continuously on the same spot since,
considering the weight of the float machine, you
might cause damage to the planarity of the floor
surface.
During the floating phase the floats must not
bounce on the surface. This might be caused by
dirt between the blades and the floats (if
necessary, clean them after you have finished
work following the instructions given in the
paragraph on cleaning).
Finishing Phase
When floating has been completed, detach the
floats from the blades and clean the cement that
has collected during the floating phase off the
blades, the spider and the protection rim. Turn the
blade-lifting knob clockwise (Fig. 4 No.1 & 2) until
the blades are inclined by about 1 cm for the first
pass. For the subsequent smoothing operations
continue increasing the blade inclination until
obtaining the desired finish.
Once again, the time between one pass and the
next is determined by the atmospheric conditions
(hot or cold season) and by the amount of water in
the concrete. If the concrete has hardened too
quickly in some areas, it can be moistened by
spraying a small amount of water using the button
(Fig. 1 No.11) located on the control bars in order
to obtain the degree of finish desired.

IMPORTANT: Switch off the engine
after each operation. Never leave the
float machine standing with the engine
running, especially during the floating
phase when the concrete is still fresh.
5.5. Stopping

For more specific information on
stopping, consult the engine instruction
manual.
To stop the float machine move the accelerator
(Fig. 1 No. 5) to idle and release the two joysticks
(10 & 11). Close the fuel cock and remove the
start key from the control panel.

11
5.6. Stopping in Emergency Conditions
The seat (Fig. 3 No. 1) is connected to a
microswitch which cuts the electric power to the
engine. In case of an emergency or loss of control
of the float machine, immediately release the
joysticks.
6. HANDLING AND TRANSPORT
Horizontal Movements
The float machine can comfortably be moved on
horizontal surfaces on construction sites using the
special trolley.
1. Pull the key out of the control panel.
2. Holding the handle of the trolley raised,
position it on the float machine straddling
the engine in such a way that the two
hooks near the wheels slide underneath
the protection rim until slipping into the
catch found under the bar of the rim.
3. Lower the handle of the trolley towards
the ground until the pivoting wheel
touches the floor and, holding the trolley
firmly down with the feet or with one hand,
hook it to the protection rim of the float
machine.
4. Move the machine by pushing or pulling
the handle until arriving at the new place
of work.
5. To unhook the trolley, detach the hook
from the catch.
The moment the float machine is
unhooked from the trolley, it will jolt
upward due to the effect of the machine
weight. Therefore, firmly hold the trolley
handle during this operation.
Vertical Movements
Never leave the floats attached to the
float machine when lifting it more than
100 cm off the ground since it could
detach and cause damage to persons
and things.
Lift the float machine using the lifting attachments.
To lift the machine from one level to another, use
a hoisting crane or lift truck of suitable capacity
with respect to the weight indicated in the
technical characteristics.
To transport the machine on a truck, place the
blades in horizontal position using the control
knobs. Transporting the float machine with the
blades inclined may damage the blade lifting
system.
7. MAINTENANCE
1. All the maintenance, inspection
and cleaning operations of the
machine must be carried out only
when the machine is off and cold.
2. Pull out the start key.
3. Before proceeding with
maintenance, thoroughly clean the
float machine.
4. When the blades are worn they
may become sharp. Therefore,
during all the maintenance phases,
wear protective gloves and pay
particular attention to their position.
7.1. Engine Maintenance
See the engine use and maintenance manual.
7.2. Machine Maintenance
The hydraulic float machine model MK8 120 does
not require any particular maintenance.
Nonetheless it is good practice to do the following:
Daily Operations
1. When you have finished work, thoroughly
clean off the encrustations that have
accumulated on the float machine during the
working phases.
2. Clean the engine air filter, especially if
working in dusty conditions (follow the
instructions in the engine manual).
3. Check tightness of the screws and bolts
of the protection guards and the blades and
replace if defective.

IMPORTANT:
During the work, the gage’s temperature
oscillate from 90° to 120°; reliant on
external temperature.
The maxim temperature gap between
the 2 gearboxes is 20°.
If the temperature is too high, you must
check the oil. If the problem continues,
contact a service center.
Weekly Operations
1. Check wear and tensioning of the belts.
Grease the cardan shafts.
2. Check the battery charge and the level of
water in the cells, if necessary, top off
with distilled water only.
3. Clean any oxidation off the two battery
poles.

12
Operations after 100 hours of work
Check the oil level in the two gear reductions (see
Par. 7.8).
7.3. Battery
If the machine is not used for a long period of
time, disconnect the battery removing the cable
terminal from the positive pole (Fig. 9 No. 2). For
maintenance, consult the instruction and use
leaflet of the battery.

IMPORTANT:
Recharge the battery in a dry place.
Protect the contacts from dirt and water
stagnation. Do not spray with water.
Replacing the Battery (Fig. 9)
Handle the battery with particular care
since it contains acid.
1. Remove the protective cover unhooking
the two hooks.
2. Remove the connection terminals and
take care to first remove the negative one
(4) in order to prevent a short-circuit.
3. Extract the battery and replace it with one
with the same characteristics (45 Ah).
Dispose of the battery in the
appropriate manner in accordance
with the regulations in force in the
country of use.
7.4. Cleaning the machine
Clean the float machine at the end of each
working day to prevent that cement hardens and
forms encrustations on the machine. Wash the
dirty parts with a brush and water. Wet the parts
exposed to cement with “stripping” oil (never fuel
oil). Do not oil the rubber moving parts (belts,
etc.).
7.5. Replacing the Floats
Be careful when installing the machine. One rotor
turns clockwise and the other counter-clockwise,
therefore you need to check that the various
components have been properly arranged.
Before mounting the floats, check that the blades
are clean, i.e. that there are no traces or residues
of cement mixes. The blades must be placed in
horizontal position using the knobs (Fig.4 No.1 &
2).
To replace the floats proceed as follows:
Slightly lift the float machine off the ground (about
10 cm).
Mount the floats on the blades checking the
correct direction of rotation.
When the floats have been mounted, reposition
the float machine on the ground.
7.6. Replacing the Blades
Always check the state of wear of the blades and
if they are damaged or bent, replace them. For
proper functioning they need to be replaced
entirely.
To replace the blades, proceed as follows (Fig.
10):
Clean any working residue off the
float machine.
Open the guard by unscrewing the
two fixing bolts and hook the guard to the
chain.
Slightly lift the float machine off the
ground (about 10 cm).
Remove the fixing bolts of the blades
on each arm.
Mount the new blades fixing the bolts
with the respective split washers (check the
state of the bolts and replace them if
necessary).
When the blades have been
mounted, reposition the float machine on the
ground.
Reposition the guard and tighten the
bolts.
7.7. Replacing the belts
To replace the belts, operate as follows:
Dismantle the belt protection guard
(Fig. 11 No. 1).
Slightly lift the float machine off the
ground (about 10 cm) in order to be able to
freely turn the pulley and the clutch and thus
easily remove and replace the belts.
Loosen the belt tightener.
Remove the worn belts and replace
them with others of the same size.
Screw down the belt tightener until
the ideal tension is obtained.
Reposition the float machine on the
ground.
Reposition the guard (1).
7.8. Gear Reduction Oil Level
To check the oil level in the gear reductions,
follow the instructions below:
There are two caps on the side of the two gear
reductions. The top cap (Fig. 12 No. 1)
determines the oil level in the gearbox. Pay
particular attention when you notice oil in the
lower part of the float machine. Clean and check
where the leak comes from and take the
appropriate action.

Should the oil need to be topped off, use Mobil
Glygoyle 30 synthetic oil or equivalent.
Check the level on the gauges (2).
To replace the oil filter open the support (3),
unscrew the filter (4) and proceed with
replacement.
7.9. Storage Instructions
Never store the machine with fuel in the
tank in places where the fuel vapors
may come into contact with flames
and/or sparks.
If you can foresee that the machine will not be
used for more than one month, drain the fuel from
the tank in order to prevent the formation of
rubbery deposits. Also detach the battery.
If storing the machine in places where the
temperature might drop to below 0°C, drain out
the water tank.
7.10. Hydraulic Pressure Regulation
The operating pressure of the MK8-120 may vary
from 0 to 20 bar and is controlled by the pressure
regulator located behind the seat (Fig. 7).
The pressure is regulated by the user.
