MIXING
METHODS
Read material
manufacturers mixing
instructions before
mixing. DO NOT mix
ignitable or toxic
materials. Ensure
adequate ventilation
is provided.
For Dry Materials To Be Mixed With Liquids:
1.
Measure the correct amount of liquids into the mixing canister. Wet
the sides of the canister.
2.
Run the mixer on low speed.
3.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the liquid. A 20-25 kg bag of dry
ingredients should take about 20-30 seconds to pour into the mixing
canister in a consistent flow.
4.
Do not dump product in all at once
or a lumpy mixture will result.
5.
When three quarters of the dry ingredients have been added to the
liquid, the mixer can then be run on high speed.
6.
Add the rest of the ingredients. Ensure that the mixing helix is totally
covered . It may be necessary to select a mixing shaft with a shorter
helix to mix a small batch, or a larger helix to mix a full batch. This will
ensure thorough mixing.
Keep hands and other objects well
clear of mixing canister and helix
whilst machine is operating.
