TRACTOR REQUIREMENTS AND PREPARATION BE-MX320G
The MX320G mixer requires a tractor with a Category I hitch and to be of sucient size to handle a loaded
mixer drum. Five cubic feet of concrete weighs 685 lbs. and the mixer weighs 215 lbs. for a total weight
of 900 lbs. Always be sure your tractor is properly counterbalanced for a safe operation.
A smaller size tractor (20-25 HP) equipped with a front end weights or equipped with a front end loader can
usually handle the mixer easily.
Note: Small low-profile tractors will generally not work with the MX320G mixers as they are so low they cannot
dump the mixer into forms of any height.
The tractor must have one hydraulic power remote to power the dump cylinder.
The tractor must be equipped with a 540 RPM PTO (power takeo) in good working condition.
It is recommended that only tractors with wide front axles be used with the mixer. Tricycle front wheel
arrangements are inherently unstable and tractor roll-over accidents are more likely to occur.
The tractor also needs lift arm stabilizer bars or sway blocks to control side movement of the mixer.
Check tractors 3PT. hydraulic lift system. Refer to your tractor’ operator’s manual or dealer for any adjustments
necessary to put the hydraulic system in good working order. (I&T shop manuals will list most specifications
and adjustment instructions - available form most farm equipment dealers).
Be sure tires and rims are in good condition. Inflate tires to the proper recommended air pressure.
Check the master shield over the PTO stub shaft. Make sure it is in good condition and fastened securely to
the tractor. Purchase a new shield if old shield is damaged or missing. (You may have to use a tractor salvage
yard for replacement parts on older tractors).
It is recommended that a ROPS (Roll-Over Protection Structure) and a seat belt be installed on all tractors.
Contact your local dealer for a ROPS for your tractor.
CAUTION!
Be sure your tractor is in good condition.
Read all the safety precautions and make sure all tractor operators
are familiar with the safety rules of operation

TRACTOR REQUIREMENTS AND PREPARATION (CONT.) BE-MX320G
The operator is responsible for the safe operation of this mixer. The operator must be properly trained.
Operators should be familiar with the mixer, tractor and all safety practices before starting operation.
Read all the safety rules and signs throughout this manual.
WARNING!
A heavy load can cause instability in driving a tractor. Make sure the front of the tractor is properly
counterbalanced with weights. Always drive slowly - especially around turns. An unstable tractor could
steer badly and possibly tip over, causing injury or death.
WARNING!
When using 3PT hitch equipment, a minimum 20% of tractor and equipment weight must be on tractor
front wheels. Without this weight, tractor could tip up, causing possible loss of control and possible
personal injury or death. The weight may be attained with a front end loader, front wheel weights, ballast
in tires or front tractor weights. When attaining a minimum 20% of tractor and equipment weight on the
front wheels, you must not exceed the ROPS weight certification. Weigh the tractor and equipment.
DO NOT GUESS OR ESTIMATE!

ASSEMBLY BE-MX320G
This unit is shipped almost completely assembled. Carefully follow instructions for final assembly.
Before attempting assembly check the following items. Having all the needed parts and equipment readily at
hand will speed up your assembly task and will make the job as safe as possible.
• Check for fasteners and pins that were shipped with the mixer. All hardware coming from the factory has
been installed in the location where it will be used. If a part or fastener is temporarily removed for assembly
reasons, remember where it goes. Keep the parts separated.
• Have a minimum of 2 people at hand during assembly.
Refer to the Safety Precautions of this manual prior to working on the machine.
The pull pins must be installed on the outside of the mixer frame.
Attach the mixer to the lower lift arms of the tractor. Use two (2) 7/16” lynch pins (not furnished) to lock the
pull pins to the lift arms.
Note: Be sure to always use stabilizer bars to prevent side sway on the mixer.
Failure to use the stabilizer bars on the 3PT hitch could cause breakage of the hydraulic toplink cylinder or
the PTO driveline.
Install the special toplink hydraulic cylinder to the tractor, using the pin furnished with the tractor.
The hydraulic cylinder is a single acting cylinder.
Attach the hose to the rod end of the toplink cylinder. Use a good quality thread sealant.
DO NOT USE TEFLON TAPE. The port of the hydraulic toplink cylinder are 1/4” pipe thread.
The tractor end of the hose will connect to a 1/2” - 14 NPT standard hydraulic quick coupler tip.
Note: The rod end of the hydraulic cylinder connects to the tractor toplink brackets and the cylinder body
connects to the adjustable links as shown in the parts view.
Note: The hydraulic toplink cylinder is single acting, it may require adjustment on your tractor valve
to operate (check tractor owner’s manual).
Use caution when trial dumping the mixer. Allowing the mixer to dump too far may bind the rod end of the
hydraulic cylinder and bend the rod. If it appears this will happen, move the hydraulic cylinder to a higher
position and/or move the lower lift pins to a lower hole position. It is suggested that you start with the
center hole positions and work from there.

ASSEMBLY (CONT.) BE-MX320G
In some cases it will be necessary to shorten the PTO assembly to match your particular tractor. The following
procedure should be used:
• Check that the driveline is the correct length (Figure 2).
The minimum coupling length (overlap) must be no less than 180mm (6 inches) in each work position.
Driveline travel must still be about 25mm (1 inch) in the maximum coupling (overlap) position (see figure 2).
Always couple the two the end yokes of the driveline and check that they are locked in place.
To achieve this condition, completely insert the latch pin (Ref. #1, Figure 2) into the groove in the PTO shaft on
the tractor. Install the bolt through the yoke and input shaft on the mixer. An unlocked shaft would slip out of
position, causing notable mechanical damage and serious injury to anyone near. IF the driveline is too long, it
should be shortened in the following way:
• Set the machine PTO input shaft at a minimum distance from the tractor PTO stub shaft; then set the tractor
brakes and switch the engine o.
• Separate the two halves of the driveline. Install the female part into the tractor PTO and the male part on
the machine PTO, checking that the position is correct by means of the latch pin.
1. Place the two halves of the driveline together, keeping them parallel (see Figure 3.) Using a felt-tip pen,
matchmark the place where the two halves must be shortened, measuring 1.0 inch from the beginning of
each half, as shown in Figure 3. Double check before making cuts. Cut PTO drivelines cannot be returned.
2. Raise and lower the mixer to determine position with greatest distance between the PTO shaft and mixer
input shaft. Shut tractor o, leaving mixer in position of greatest distance between shafts. SECURELY
BLOCK MIXER IN POSITION.
3. Hold driveline sections parallel to each other and check for minimum 6” (15cm) overlap. If driveline has
been marked for cutting, overlap will be the distance between the two marks. If driveline has less than
minimum overlap, do not use. Contact authorized dealer.

ASSEMBLY (CONT.) BE-MX320G
4. If driveline must be cut to a shorter length, clamp driveline in a well padded vise to prevent damage to
the shield. Cut o shield where marked. Using cut-o section of shield where marked. Using cut-o section
of shield as a guide, cut shaft the same amount (Figure 4).
5. Repeat the procedure to the other driveline half. Remove all burrs and cuttings.
6. Apply multi-purpose grease to inside of outer (female) driveline section. Assemble driveline and install on
tractor and mixer. Pull on each driveline section to be sure yokes lock into place. Make certain driveline
shielding is in place and in good condition.
7. Carefully raise and lower the mixer and check to be sure the PTO assembly does not jam. If it does,
cut equal amounts from each half of the PTO assembly.
8. Check the swinging drawbar of the tractor and make sure the PTO driveline assembly will not contact.
The swinging drawbar can be moved forward on some tractors or it can be removed.
If the PTO driveline assembly contacts the swinging drawbar, damage will occur to the driveshaft shield and
possibly the driveshaft itself. (NOT covered under warranty).
Note: This type of damage is NOT covered under warranty, as it is totally under the control and the
responsibility of the operator.
WARNING!
When attaching PTO yoke to tractor PTO shaft, it is important that spring-activated locking pin or balls
operate freely and are seated in groove on PTO shaft. A loose shaft could slip o and result in personal
injury or damage to equipment.
