Abstract
A concrete floor finisher for finishing newly-placed concrete. The machine comprises a rotor hub, a plurality of rotor arms on the hub for rotation about an axis, a blade pivotable on each arm, and a motor for driving the rotor hub. The pitch of the blades is adjustable depending upon the condition of the wet concrete, by a piston and cylinder centrally located about the axis of rotation of the rotor, and a stud connected at one end to the blades and at its other end engaging a portion of the piston to adjust the pitch of the blades in response to the axial displacement of the piston.
