Care and maintenance
Troubleshoo琀椀ng
The mixer must always be disconnected from the power supply by pulling the mains plug prior
to any maintenance and cleaning work.
Always ensure ease of movement for all moving parts.
The mixer is largely maintenance-free. The drive sha昀琀 is supported by ball bearings with per
-
manent lubrica琀椀on.
Clean the machine immediately a昀琀er use. Do not let material deposits dry.
Remove the mixing tool from the hexagon sha昀琀 and clean it outside of the mixer.
Do not tap the mixing tool and mixing tub using a hammer. Bent mixing tools can lead to dam-
age to the device and poor mixing results.
Replace damaged, bent or worn machine parts.
Treat moving parts, such as the bo琀琀om segment slidegate, extendable discharge chute and
hexagons sha昀琀 from 琀椀me to 琀椀me with spray oil.
