The machine is also equipped with a guard on its outlet to prevent ac-
cess to the mixing area (ref.11, g.1).
8. TRANSPORT
Use the machine’s handles ( g.4) to move it; these must be pulled out
one at a time:
1. grasp a handle (ref.1, g.4) and remove its locking pin (ref.2, g.4).
2. Pull the handle (ref.1, g.4) fully upwards.
3. Fit the locking pin (ref.2, g.4).
Repeat with the other handle.
The mixer may also be moved with its four wheels ( g.5).
- Before moving the mixer in this way, make sure the tank
guard safety hook (ref.12, fi g.1) is engaged.
When lifting with a hoist or similar equipment, hook a four-point harness
into the holes on the frame ( g.3). Make sure the harness has arms of
at least 1500 mm.
- Each arm of the harness must be rated for loads greater than
the total weight of the mixer.
- Always pull out its power plug before moving the mixer.
9. INSTALLATION
Unpack the machine.
The machine is supplied with its legs removed, these must be assem-
bled:
1. Fit the wheels into the rear legs and lock them with their cotters.
2. Raise the mixer and t the front and rear legs; lock the legs at the
desired height with their lock pins. Follow the layout given in g.9.
The height of the mixer should enable easy unloading into the wheelbar-
row used to move the mixed product around the worksite.
- Place the mixer on a stable, level surface (max slope 5°, see
fi g.2), so that it doesn’t sink into the ground or tip over when run-
ning.
- Leave at least 2 m clearance around the machine for handling
materials and product.
10. ELECTRICAL MAINS CONNECTION
- Make certain that a residual current device and miniature
circuit breaker are installed on the electrical power line.
10.1 Connecting versions with motor 115V/60Hz
Ensure that the supply voltage corresponds to machine dataplate speci-
cations. At full load it must be between 103V and 126V.
- To supply the machine it is necessary to use a 2-pole +
ground cable in order to ensure the machine's connection to the
site's equipotential system.
10.2 Sizing the power supply cable
The power supply line must be suitably sized to prevent voltage drops.
Do not use cable winders. The electric cable wire size must take into
account the operating currents and length of the line to avoid excessive
voltage drops (table 4).

The power supply cables used on the site must have an outer jacket that
is resistant to crushing, wear and weather (e.g. H07RN-F).
- For the conformity of the power supply, see CEI-64-8 (harmo-
nisation of CENELEC HD384).
11. COMMISSIONING THE MACHINE
Before connecting the machine to the electrical mains, ensure that all
safety devices are tted and are in perfect condition, that the extension
cord is in good condition and that the plugs and sockets (of the type
protected against jets of water) are not wet.
Connect the mains power cable to the plug on the electrical panel. Start
the mixer with the switch on the cabinet (ref.8, g.1).
- The motor is protected against overloads by a thermal cu-
tout. It stops the machine automatically if it overheats. Alloow the
motor to cool down before starting it up again.
12. EMERGENCY - STOP
- In case of emergency, stop the machine by pressing the
emergny button. Then pull out its power plug. To start again, re-
connect the power plug and turn the power switch to "1".
13. OPERATION
For best mixing results and regular operation, the mixer must be instal-
led on a level surface.
- Check that the machine stops as soon as the tank guard is
opened.
The machine must be started when the tank is empty.
- Do not start the machine when it is fully loaded.
The tank guard is equipped with bag breaker blades to facilitate using
premixed product. Load the mix components alternately, in the amounts
required for the type of product, so as to reduce mixing time as far as
possible.
- Load the material with the blades turning.
- Only load the specifi ed products into the tank.
- Do not insert your hands or tools into the tank when the
blades are turning.
- Do not fi ll the tank beyond its mixing capacity (table 1).
Ruin the machine for as long as it takes to obtain an even mix of the
right consistency.
Empty the tank with the blades turning by opening its outlet by hand.
To do this, pull the lever (ref.1, g.6), for its full stroke, to position B.
To close the outlet, return the lever (ref.1, g.5) to position A.
- Make sure to place a container under the outlet before you
empty out the tank.
If any of the mix is left inside the tank for further use, the blades must
be left turning until it is used. We recommend leaving the mix inside the
tank as little as possible once it has reached the right consistency.
13.1 Blades jam while running
It may occur that the machine stops mixing because the mix is too den-
se.
To unjam the blades, proceed as follows:
1. Switch the machine off by setting the power switch (ref.8, g.1) to
"0".
2. Invert the direction of rotation of the blades by setting the switch
(ref.8, g.1) to "2".
3. Wait for a short time (5-10 seconds); then switch the machine off by
setting the power switch (ref.8, g.1) to "0".
4. Restore normal operation by turning the power switch (ref.8, g.1)
to "1".
- The machine only runs properly with the power switch set to
"1" (blades turn clockwise)
14. MAINTENANCE
- Maintenance must be done by adequately trained personnel,
after switching off the machine, disconnecting it from the power
supply and emptying the tank.
- Make sure the guards/safety equipment are always functio-
nal and in good condition.
Every two months of operation, check:
• the belt tension.
• the condition of the poly-V drive belt and pulleys.
Check weekly that the plug contacts on the electrical cabinet are clean,
dry and rust free.
- Periodically check the condition of the power cable jackets
exiting the cabinet.
- Periodically check, by raising the guard (ref.10, fi g.1) 10 mm,
