Section III – Unit Operation 

 

IMPORTANT 
 

Before using the mixer, operators must read and understand this instruction 
manual. Failure to observe the instructions in this manual will invalidate the 
warranty. 
 
The unit is delivered fully assembled but should be inspected for transit 
damage. Any damage should be reported to STS and the equipment should 
not be used. 
 
Never allow any part of your body or anyone else’s to be put in a position 
where it might cause injury. Always operate the unit in accordance with the 
instructions. 

Positioning the Mixer 

 

-

 

Position the mixing unit in a position close to a 230V mains power point 
and ensure that the doors can be opened fully for drum loading. 

-

 

The unit is fitted with 4 screw feet. The lock nut can be tightened to lock 
the feet in place.  

-

 

Ensure that the mixing unit is level before use. 

-

 

Plug the mains lead into a suitable 230V power supply. Ensure that the 
cable is positioned away from any areas that would cause the cable 
to be a trip hazard. 

Loading the Drum 

 

-

 

Drum handles must be removed prior to loading the drums into the 
mixer. 

-

 

Open the two doors fully at the front of the unit. Each drum can then 
be individually placed on to the inside shelf of the unit before being 
positioned on to the rollers. 

Note. The drum orientation should align with 

the yellow instruction stickers.

 

-

 

The weighted wheels will move up and out of the way as a drum is 
pushed into position.  

-

 

Once all the drums have been loaded into the unit, close the doors so 
they are held by the magnetic catches. Closing the doors activates 
the safety switches which allows the unit to operate.
