9. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
9.1 DRUM TILTING
The spring-loaded tipping wheel with locking lugs provides an easy positive
control of the drum which can be locked in the mix, discharge and stored
position.
The drum is locked in position by lugs on the self-locating tipping wheel which
engage into the locking plate on the mixer frame. To tilt the drum, withdrawn the
tipping wheel to dis-engage the locking lugs. This then allows the tipping wheel
and drum to be turned in the same direction.
To retain the drum in position, aligning the lugs with the slots, release the
tipping wheel a little while retaining the drum. Rotate the tipping wheel until the
locking lugs engage into the locking plate on the mixer frame.

9.3 LOADING
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 throw material into the mixer to avoid sticking firmly to the
back of the drum. Trickle it steadily over the ram.
NOTE: A built-in thermal protector is arranged in the motor to prevent it
from overheating. The thermal protector restores automatically when the
motor cools down.
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.
