Access to mixing pan internals is via the safety interlocks. Each of the above are
bolted components and are replaced by simple method and usually achieved in situ
without dismantling other components.

replaced in situ. However, pan covers will need to be dismantled to provide the
necessary access.

assembly and mixing star. Each can be replaced again in situ but pan covers
would require tensing to provide necessary access.
