WARNING! 

Risk of accidents and damage to components 
All modifications to the unit, in particular safety mechanisms, are prohibited. The operating speeds of the unit must not be increased under any 
circumstances. 
 
Hazardous area 

Warning! Risk of accidents / injury in the hazardous area of the mixer. 

The hazardous area is defined as the area in which a person is at risk due to mixer movement, rotating operations or the load  itself.  

 

Instruct unauthorised people to move hands away from the hazardous area. 

 

The doors are fitted with a safety switch which prevents the mixer from operating  until the doors are closed, even so the operator 
should never try to start the mixer with the doors open.  

 

With the doors shut the hazardous area is protected, the controls of the mixer should be used to stop the rotation before the doors 
are opened.  

 

If a door is opened whilst the unit is mixing will stop. There is a small  amount of time where the rollers will still be slowing down after 
the doors have been so care should be taken.  

 

Do not operate the mixer with the covers off. 

 

NOTE: 

Only original spare parts have been certified by the manufacturer. To ensure safe and reliable operation of the unit, use only the
