Husqvarna CT 36 Trowel F.A.Q.

What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the Husqvarna CT 36 Trowel?

Regular maintenance should be performed after every 50 hours of operation. This includes checking the engine oil level, inspecting and cleaning the air filter, checking the drive belt tension, and ensuring all bolts are tightened.

How do I troubleshoot uneven troweling results with the CT 36?

Uneven troweling may be due to uneven blade wear or improper blade pitch. Check the blades for wear and replace if necessary. Adjust the blade pitch to ensure uniform contact with the concrete surface.

What should I do if the trowel engine fails to start?

If the engine fails to start, check the fuel level and ensure the fuel valve is open. Inspect the spark plug for fouling and clean or replace it as necessary. Also, make sure the kill switch is in the "on" position.

Can I use the Husqvarna CT 36 Trowel on freshly poured concrete?

For optimal performance, use SAE 10W-30 oil in the engine. Ensure that the oil is of high quality and change it regularly as per the maintenance schedule.

How can I extend the life of the trowel blades?

To extend the life of the blades, ensure proper blade pitch adjustments and avoid using the trowel on overly abrasive surfaces. Regularly inspect for wear and replace blades when necessary.

What safety precautions should I take when operating the CT 36?

Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety goggles, gloves, and hearing protection. Ensure the area is clear of obstacles and other people before starting the machine.

How do I clean the Husqvarna CT 36 after use?

After use, clean the trowel by removing any concrete residue with a wire brush. Wipe down the unit with a damp cloth and check for any signs of wear or damage.

What should I do if the trowel vibrates excessively during operation?

Excessive vibration can be caused by an imbalance in the blades or loose components. Check that all blades are properly secured and balanced. Tighten any loose bolts or nuts on the machine.
