EDCO CPU-10FC-G 10 Inch Gasoline Self-Propelled Crete-Planer

The EDCO CPU-10FC-G 10 Inch Gasoline Self-Propelled Crete-Planer is an industry-leading scarifier designed to maximize productivity, precision, and operator comfort during large-scale concrete and asphalt surface preparation. Engineered for contractors tackling deep removal, texturing, leveling, or grooving jobs, the CPU-10FC-G is the go-to solution for parking deck leveling, roadwork, factory floor resurfacing, and airport runways.

Product Overview

With a 10” working width and heavy-duty build, the EDCO CPU-10FC-G achieves superior scarification rates—removing coatings, trip hazards, traffic lines, or old surfaces in a single pass. Its hydrostatic transmission delivers smooth, variable-speed, self-propelled forward and reverse drive, minimizing operator fatigue even during long shifts. Upcut drum rotation ensures maximum removal while heavy frame construction yields optimal downward force, breaking through tough overlays and thick coatings.

Key Features

• 10” Cutting Width: Scarifies 500–750 sq. ft. per hour at a standard removal depth of 1/8” per pass, outperforming smaller scarifiers for large jobs.

• Adjustable Depth Control: Micro-adjustment system provides up to 3/16” working depth per pass, supporting both aggressive demolition and fine texturing.

• Hydrostatic Transmission: Forward/reverse hydrostatic drive allows for precise speed changes and effortless maneuvering, greatly reducing operator effort over manual machines.

• Upcut Drum Rotation: Rotates drum upward to “lift” and remove even the toughest surface coatings and spalls, while efficiently ejecting debris.

• Convertible Hood System: Hood design accommodates various drum configurations, simplifies access, and speeds up tooling changes for job flexibility.

• Heavyweight Design: Maximizes traction and removal force, delivering consistent cutting without bouncing or chatter, even on challenging surfaces.

• Operator Comfort: Built-in lifting bail, ergonomic controls, and a low-vibration handle system ensure fatigue-free operation.

• Hour Meter & Oil Alert: Onboard hour meter and oil alert system streamline maintenance and scheduling for longer machine life.

• Optional Outrigger Axle: Enables the planer to effectively track surface contours on uneven slabs, ideal for outdoor/industrial site work.

Performance & Benefits

• Maximized Productivity: Self-propelled drive and wide working width boost daily coverage, lower labor costs, and keep even large facilities on schedule.

• Superior Surface Removal: Upcutting drum and heavyweight frame lift thick coatings, spalled concrete, or hazardous materials quickly and cleanly.

• Consistent Results: Precise depth control means even, uniform finishes throughout the project, ideal for coating prep, floor leveling, or groove cutting.

• Reduced Operator Fatigue: Hydrostatic drive, ergonomic design, and balanced handling support all-day use with less operator strain.

• Flexible Tooling: Compatible with a wide range of EDCO tooling—milling drums, flail shafts, and specialty cutters—to match every surface or prep requirement.

• Jobsite Compliance: Dust port enables OSHA silica-safe working; convertible configuration fits tight, irregular, or high-traffic locations.

Application Versatility

• Resurfacing Parking Decks, Roads, and Highways: Remove overlays, surface roughness, or failed coatings across wide paved areas.

• Factory Floor Re-leveling: Remove spills, adhesives, and gouges; prep slab for smooth, safe traffic lanes or new coatings.

• Airport Runways: Cut grooves for traction, prep for paint or overlay, and maintain even, slip-resistant surfaces.

• Industrial Maintenance: Clean up spalls, level trip hazards, or address pavement failures indoors or out.

Operation & Maintenance Tips

• Pre-Operation: Inspect engine oil, belts, depth controls, and drum tightness. Grease cutter bearings every 4 hours; check hydrostatic fluid every 50 hours.

• During Use: Monitor oil alert and hour meter. Adjust depth gradually, especially on first passes, to avoid overloading cutters.

• Tooling Maintenance: Change or rotate cutters for consistent wear; use only matched sets to maintain drum balance.

• Belt Tension: Retension new belts after 4 hours of operation, then check daily for slippage or stretching.

• Hydrostatic Drive: Periodically check fluid and inspect hoses for leaks or wear.

• Cleaning: Remove dust and debris, especially around drum and vacuum port, at end of each shift to prevent build-up.

• Engine Maintenance: Follow engine manufacturer’s schedule for oil/filter changes and air filter checks.

• Safety Practices: Wear eye, hearing, and dust protection; operate only outdoors or in ventilated locations; secure loose clothing and keep bystanders clear.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How much concrete can the CPU-10FC-G remove per hour?
A: 500–750 sq. ft. per hour at 1/8” removal rate, depending on slab hardness and tooling used.

Q: Is the drum changeable for different cutting profiles?
A: Yes! Convertible hood and quick-access design allow fast drum/tooling swaps for various cutting, grooving, milling, or cleaning needs.

Q: Can it handle dust collection?
A: Absolutely—the integrated vacuum port is compatible with industrial vac systems for OSHA-compliant dust control.

Q: What fuel does the engine require?
A: Standard unleaded gasoline; follow engine manufacturer guidelines for best results and longevity.

Q: What makes the hydrostatic system superior?
A: Infinitely variable speeds, easy switching between forward and reverse, and smooth transitions help minimize operator fatigue and increase jobsite control.
