EDCO TG10 10 Inch Gas/Propane Turbo Grinder

The EDCO TG10 10 Inch Gas/Propane Turbo Grinder is an industry-standard powerhouse, purpose-built for aggressive concrete surface preparation on both commercial and industrial job sites. Engineered for high performance and durability, this turbo grinder enables fast removal of coatings, concrete leveling, smoothing, and tackling tough surface finishes on slabs, bridge decks, and warehouse floors. Whether you’re a contractor, facility manager, or rental operator, the TG10 delivers unmatched productivity and reliability across a diverse range of projects.

Overview & Technology

The EDCO TG10 leverages advanced turbo grinding action using a 10” working width and a robust disc to deliver up to 400–500 square feet of coverage per hour at a 1/16” per pass removal rate when equipped with Magna-Trap® diamond tooling. Operators can choose between heavy-duty 11–13 HP gasoline or 13 HP propane engine options, each with electric start for convenience and added efficiency. The TG10’s premium drivetrain, easy-access controls, and multi-accessory compatibility make it one of the most versatile and user-friendly turbo grinders on the market.

Key Features

• High-Production Performance: 10” turbo disc covers 400–500 sq. ft./hr at 1/16” grind depth, making the TG10 four times faster than most conventional floor grinders.

• Powerful Engines: Choose gasoline (11 or 13 HP, Honda or equivalent) or 13 HP propane engines—both with electric start for reduced downtime and reliable jobsite performance.

• Rigid or Flex Head Option: Comes standard with a rigid head for aggressive removal and leveling; an optional flex head tracks slab contours for smooth, finished surfaces.

• Wet or Dry Grinding: Water ports and a dust shroud allow for wet grinding when needed, while dry grinding is possible with excellent dust control when paired with a vacuum.

• Rounded Shroud: Edge-to-edge grinding up to 1/2” from walls or vertical surfaces and improved dust containment for cleaner workspaces.

• Leveling Kit: Rear wheel-mounted level adjusts quickly for perfect flatness and ensures ideal diamond/tool contact.

• Multi-Accessory Compatibility: Designed for use with Magna-Trap® and Dyma-Dots tooling and quick change accessory plates, supporting a wide array of jobs from heavy material removal to smooth polishing.

• Tapered Roller Bearings: Heavy-duty bearings with improved seals offer long life and reduced maintenance, even under grueling use.

• Low Operator Fatigue: Clutch design and optimized handle placement ensure less torque is transferred to the operator—even on difficult, vibration-prone applications.

Application Range

• Thick Coating Removal: Epoxy, glues, mastics, waterproof membranes

• Trip Hazard Repair: Level uneven or curled joints, bridge decks, and slab high spots

• Surface Preparation: Clean, profile, and texture concrete for overlays, sealers, or new coatings

• Edge Grinding: Work within 1/2” of walls—reducing the need for hand grinding

• Industrial Floor Care: Remove traffic lines, spalls, and prepare substrates for resurfacing

Operation & Maintenance Tips

• Daily Cleaning: Remove dust and debris around discs, bearings, shrouds, and drive belts at the end of every shift for smooth operation.

• Belt and Bearing Checks: Lubricate and inspect transmission belts regularly; service bearings according to manufacturer intervals for long life.

• Disc Inspection: Check for wear, cracks, or out-of-round conditions before each use; replace tooling as needed.

• Water System: If wet grinding, flush the water ports regularly to prevent clogs, algae, or mineral deposit buildup.

• Vacuum System: Attach a high-quality shop vacuum to dust ports for optimal silica containment and compliance with OSHA or site safety regulations.

• Engine Maintenance: Always follow engine manufacturer guidelines for oil, filters, and fuel system care.

• Operator Safety: Wear hearing, eye, and dust protection at all times; secure loose clothing and keep bystanders clear.

User Tips for Top Performance

• Begin each job at the highest point or thickest material—take shallow passes first to avoid excessive load or disc wear.

• Adjust rear wheel level to keep the disc flush, optimizing diamond contact for best removal rates.

• Swap between rigid and flex head tooling for either aggressive material removal or smooth, finished results.

• Grind in slow, even passes for the most uniform surface—use water for heat management with hard or dense concrete.

• Use Magna-Trap color-coded tooling for best tool-life-to-performance ratio tailored to material hardness and coating type.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the coverage rate for the TG10?
A: Approximately 400–500 sq. ft. per hour at a 1/16” cut with diamond tooling.

Q: Can I grind near walls?
A: Yes. The rounded shroud allows you to grind within 1/2” of any vertical surface, dramatically decreasing handwork time.

Q: What is the difference between the rigid and flex head?
A: The rigid head maximizes aggressive removal, while the optional flex head contours to floor imperfections for smoother finishes.

Q: Can the TG10 operate wet or dry?
A: Absolutely. A water port is included for wet grinding; connect a shop vacuum for dry, dust-controlled use.

Q: How is engine power transmitted?
A: Both gas and propane models feature standard V-belt transmission, offering reliable power delivery and easy maintenance.
