POINTER ROD: The Pointer Rod is located in the Front of the Curbilder. The operator
who is steering the machine while curb is being placed uses the Pointer Rod to follow a
chalk or string line on the ground to place the curb in the correct location on the job.
When the Curbilder is in the correct position to begin placing the curb and the chalk or
string line has been placed on the ground (see 6, “Laying Out the Job Site” above)
adjust the Pointer Rod 1” above the ground and directly over the reference string. Then
tighten the retention bolt. To avoid damaging the Pointer Rod when loading the
Curbilder onto a trailer or lifting the machine with a crane, loosen the retention bolt and
lift the Pointer Rod bottom end 6” or more above the ground.
Note: The Pointer Rod is assembled at the factory on the front of the Front Wheel
Support. When it is required to move the Pointer Rod to the front of the Curbilder
Frame a SHORTER retaining bolt is required. See drawing below for the correct
bolt size for each location for each Curbilder model. Caution: Do not use a bolt
length other than what is specified or the bolt will not tighten all the way and/or there
will be interference between the bolt and other parts.
EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH(ES): Refer to the “SAFETY” section of the manual,
“Operation of this Equipment”, E.1. and “Operating the Curbilder,” page 29. Locate ALL
of the Emergency Stop Switch(es) on your machine. In the event of an Emergency,
know how to stop the Engine/Auger on the Curbilder using these switch(es).
