5. OPERATION
Thoroughly clean the mixer at the end of each day’s operation. Keep your mixer clean. The
slightest trace of material left in the drum will harden and attract more each time you use it
until the machine is useless. Dried cement should be scraped out of the drum. Do not throw
bricks into mixer drum to clean it out. Do not beat on the drum with a shovel, a hammer or
other tools to break up accumulations of dried cement mix, as damage to the mixer may result.
The drum may be scoured for approximate 2 minutes, using 1” gravel and water mixture. Then
discharge the gravel/water mixture and hose down the drum assembly inside and out. The
IP45D protection class construction of the concrete mixer enables you to hose down the drum
assembly safely.
Never put hands inside the drum with drum rotating.
For best results, proceed as follows:
1. Add the required amount of gravel into the drum.
2.Add the required amount of cement into the drum.
3.Add the required amount of sand into the drum.
4.Pour the required amount of water into the drum.
NOTE:
A built-in thermal protecter is arranged in the motor to prevent
it from overheating. The thermal protecter restores automatically
when the motor cools down.
Completely unwind the extension cord. Connect it to the concrete
mixer first before plugging in power supply.
Always start the mixer before loading the drum. Loading the drum
with drum rotating.
Do not turn mixer off while full of load. Emptying the drum with
drum rotating.
Do not throw material into the mixer to avoid sticking firmly to the
back of the drum. Trickle it steadily over the ram.
