Preparation
1. Pour water into the hopper.
2. Connect hose to the coupling.
3. Turn on the machine and wait for the water to be pumped out of the hose. (Pay
attention to the water level in the hopper. Ensure that it does not fall below the
minimum material level, which covers the entire screw)
4. Stop the machine once the water comes out of the hose.
Mixer
1. Start the mixer.
(DO NOT load the material when the mixer is off, otherwise the mixer will not start)
2. Once the paddle started moving, add in the dry material.
3. Add water into the dry mix.
Pumping
1. When the material is fully mixed, start to pour by opening the outlet.
2. Start the pump and allow the material to push the remaining water out of the hose.
3. When the material starts to come out of the hose, you can start your work. (ALWAYS
keep the material above the minimum material level. DO NOT dry run the pump,
there must be at least water that is in the pump)
