10.2 WATER CONNECTION (see fig. 1)
Connect the water hose (table 1) to the water mains.
With horizontal mixer without water pump, the water mains
must guarantee a minimum flow rate of
20 l/min and a minimum pressure of 2 bar.
11. LOADING HEIGHTS (SEE FIG 6):
The SPIN15 continuous mixer can be operated at three different
heights.
The feet can slide within the frame before being locked in
position with the split pins at set heights, to enable three different
loading heights:
1) Direct loading of material into SMALL50 type plaster mixer;
2) Direct loading of material onto trolley;
3) Direct loading of materials into work bucket.

12. START-UP
- During work start and stop the mixer exclusively by
means of the ON/OFF buttons.
- Load the pre-mixed dry material. Take the bags of material and
place them securely on the bag splitter grid (ref.10,fig.1), lift
the two end corners of the bag to completely empty the contents
into the hopper (fig.7).
- At this point position a suitable container below the material
outlet and start up the mixer by means of the ON/OFF switch.
The machine should now be in operation
To obtain the required material consistency:
FIG. 7
To stop the machine in the event of an emergency, press the
red button (OFF); all moving parts are shut down. Then
disconnect the plug from the power mains.
THERMAL CUTOUT PROTECTION:
- The electric motor is protected against overload
by a thermal cutout, the activation of which is indicated
by total shutdown of the machine. In this case, authorised
personnel should wait for the motors to cool and restart
the unit by means of the ON/OFF switch.
13. OPERATION
- The hopper safety grid must always be fitted.
- Wear envisaged personal protection devices before
starting work.
13.1 Pauses during work
Interruptions exceeding 30 min should be avoided.
Prolonged shutdown can cause clogging in the mixing chamber
If no material exits the discharge outlet, this must be cleaned.
Stop the machine, proceed as described in para. 14, refit and
restart the unit.
14. MIXER CLEANING AND SHUTDOWN (see fig. 4)
At the end of the work shift turn off the machine by means of
the ON/OFF switch.
Remove the mixing chamber (ref.1) by turning it to release the
relative hooks (ref.2), together with the shaft (ref.3).
Empty and clean the mixing chamber and mixer with water and
dry both with paper.
Refit the shaft in its seat after ensuring that it is clean, then
insert the mixing chamber and hook up correctly.
At this point, on completion of machine cleaning, turn off the
main switch, disconnect the power plug, close the water
delivery valve, open the auxiliary valve and detach the delivery
hose.
Before restarting the machine, ensure that all valves are closed
again.
If the machine is not to be used for several days, empty the
hopper completely.
- Caution! Before disassembling the mixer or
removing the grid, ensure that the main switch is set to
OFF and the plug is disconnected from the power supply.
14. MAINTENANCE (see fig. 1)
- Maintenance must be performed by adequately
trained personnel, after switching off the machine,
disconnecting it from the power supply and emptying
the hopper.
Optimise the quantity of the water delivered by means of the
valve, while the mixer is in operation.
Make small adjustments of approx. 1/2 turn, every 15 seconds.
The machine is fitted with protection against power failure: if
this occurs, press the ON button to resume operation.
