4. Naudojimo instrukcijos

Proper operation ensures optimal results and extends the life of your tool:

1. Paviršiaus paruošimas: Ensure the concrete or cement surface is ready for smoothing. The material should be at the appropriate stage of setting for effective floating.
2. Pradinis leidimas: Begin by placing the smoother flat on the concrete surface. Apply even, consistent pressure.
3. Bidirectional Movement: Utilize the BF9 tilt joint to move the smoother across the surface in both forward and backward directions without lifting the tool. This allows for continuous smoothing and reduces effort.
4. Achieving a Smooth Finish: The rounded ends of the blade are designed to glide over the concrete, preventing the creation of lines or grooves. Work systematically across the entire area, overlapping passes slightly to ensure uniform coverage.
5. Corner Work: For areas requiring clean, sharp corners, consider using a separate square-tipped trowel if necessary, as the FRB36RBF9 is optimized for broad, smooth finishes.
