CUSTOMER SERVICE, Cont. 

We welcome your comments and suggestions 
concerning any BRAWN Mixer product. Please direct 
these comments in writing to the National Sales Manager 
at BRAWN Mixer located in Holland, Michigan. To 
expedite troubleshooting service, please make your initial 
contact through your BRAWN Mixer Representative. If, 
for whatever reason, your representative cannot be 
reached and you have an emergency condition, please 
call us directly at 616/399-5600 and ask for the 
Customer Service Department. 
 
Remember, you are backed by your BRAWN Mixer 
Technical representative and the factory support team. 
We are here to assist you; let us know how we can be of 
help. 
 

INITIAL INSPECTION

 

 
1.  Upon receipt of your Brawn Mixer, check for possible 

shipping damage. Report any damage immediately 
to the carrier and to Brawn Mixer. 

 
2.  All Brawn Mixers are shipped with the shaft and 

impeller(s) disassembled from the drive assembly.  
In addition, the clamp or cup mount and any 
mounting hardware for portable mixers are shipped 
loose. 

 
3.  Storage:  Mixers should not be stored near vibrating 

machinery to avoid damage to the bearings. Store 
mixers as packaged by the factory. For longer 
storage periods, consult factory. If electric motors 
have been subjected to humid conditions, check the 
insulation resistance between phase and mass and 
between the different phases. The resistance should 
not be less than 100 megohms. If the resistance is 
less, please consult the factory. If mixer is stored for 
more than a year, the condition of the gear lubricant 
should be checked before the mixer is put in 
operation (see lubrication instructions). 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

INSTALLATION

 

 

[REFER TO ASSEMBLY / DIMENSION DRAWING] 

 
Refer to the mixer installation / assembly drawing for 
important mounting structure design, assembly, 
mounting and dimensional data. 
 
1.  The mixer is shipped with two eyebolts located in the 

mounting base. These should be used in 
combination with the hole at the rear of the gear 
drive for lifting of the mixer assembly

.

 

 

2.  Install the mixer drive on the mounting structure and 

secure with properly-sized, Grade 5 or better 
hardware. Torque the hardware as recommended in 

TABLE 1

 
3.  Couple the mixer shaft to the gear drive output shaft 

coupling and secure with the hardware provided. 
Torque as recommended in 

TABLE 1

. Refer to 

precautions under the 

Shaft and Impeller 

Assembly

 section. 

 
4.  Install impeller(s) on lower shaft (refer to 

Shaft and 

Impeller Assembly

 section).

BOLT-TIGHTENING RECOMMENDATIONS:

  

Inadequately or improperly tightened hardware can 
loosen, due to vibration during mixer operation. This can 
result in reduced mixer life or damage to equipment.  
Recommended torque values for tightening all in-tank 
and mounting hardware are listed in 

TABLE 1

. These 

average torque values should be considered only as a 
guide and not as absolute values.
