Important Safety Information
The warnings, cautions, and instructions in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions or
situations that could occur. Exercise common sense and caution when using this tool. Always be
aware of the environment and ensure that the tool is used in a safe and responsible manner.
DO NOT allow persons to assemble or operate this product until they have read this manual and
have developed a thorough understanding of how the product works.
Use the right tool for the job. DO NOT attempt to force small equipment to do the work of larger
industrial equipment. There are certain applications for which this equipment was designed. It will
do the job better and more safely at the capacity for which it was intended. DO NOT use this
equipment for a purpose for which it was not intended.
Industrial or commercial applications must follow OSHA requirements.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
-lead from lead-based paints,
-crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
-arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well-ventilated area, and work with approved
safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
Handling the power cord on corded products may expose you to lead, a chemical known to the
State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands
after handling.
WORK AREA SAFETY
Inspect the work area before each use. Keep the work area clean, dry, free of clutter, and well lit.
Cluttered, wet, or dark work areas can result in injury.
Do not use the tool where there is a risk of causing a fire or an explosion; e.g., in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. The tool can create sparks, which may ignite the flammable
liquids, gases, or dust.
Do not allow the tool to come into contact with an electrical source. The tool is not insulated and
contact will cause electrical shock.
Keep children and bystanders away from the work area while operating the tool. Do not allow
children to handle the tool.
Be aware of all power lines, electrical circuits, water pipes, and other mechanical hazards in your
work area. Some of these hazards may be hidden from your view and may cause personal injury
and/or property damage if contacted.

Page 7 of 27
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Always check to ensure the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Do not abuse the cord. Never carry or pull a Cement Mixer by its power cord, or yank power cords
or extension cords from the receptacle. Keep power and extension cords away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords may cause a
fire and increase the risk of electric shock.
Grounded motors must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
When operating an electric Cement Mixer outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A”
or “W.” These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
Use only Listed extension cords. If used outdoors, they must be marked For Outdoor Use. Those
cords having 3-prong grounding type plugs and mating receptacles are to be used with grounded
Cement Mixers.
Check the name plate rating of the Cement Mixer. Use of improper size or gauge of extension
cord may cause unsafe or inefficient operation of the Cement Mixer. Be sure the extension cord is
rated to allow sufficient current flow to the motor. Use the following table to determine the proper
extension cord wire gauge:

Page 8 of 27
Grounding
Grounded Tools: Tools with 3-Prong Plugs
Tools marked with Grounding Required have a 3-wire cord and 3-prong grounding plug. The plug
must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the tool should electrically malfunction or break
down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the
risk of electric shock. (See Figure A.)
The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding
system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the tool’s grounding
system and must never be attached to an electrically live terminal. (See Figure A.)
Your tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those in the following illustration.

Page 9 of 27
Extension Cords
Grounded tools require a 3-wire extension cord. Double Insulated tools can use either a 2- or 3-
wire extension cord.
As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord.
Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in
loss of power and possible tool damage.
The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. For example, a
14-gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16-gauge cord. Minimum extension cord wire
size is shown in the following table:
Minimum Wire Size Of Extension Cords
Nameplate AMPS Cord Length
25' 50' 100' 150'
0-6 18 AWG 16 AWG 16 AWG 14 AWG
6-10 18 AWG 16 AWG 14 AWG 12 AWG
10-12 16 AWG 16 AWG 14 AWG 12 AWG
12-16 14 AWG 12 AWG NOT RECOMMENDED
When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make sure each cord
contains at least the minimum wire size required.
If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate amperes and use
the sum to determine the required minimum cord size.
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with the suffix W-A (Win
Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace
a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified electrician before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

CEMENT MIXER USE AND CARE
Do not force the Cement Mixer to perform an operation other than its intended use. Cement
Mixers do a better and safer job when used in the manner for which they are designed. Plan your
work, and use the correct Cement Mixer for the job.
Do not use a Cement Mixer with a malfunctioning power switch. Any Cement Mixer that cannot be
controlled with the power switch is dangerous and must be repaired by an authorized service
representative before using.
Disconnect the power supply from the Cement Mixer and place the power switch in the locked or
off position before servicing, adjusting, installing accessories or attachments, or storing. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the Cement Mixer accidentally.
Check for damaged parts before each use. Carefully check that the Cement Mixer will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Replace damaged or worn parts immediately. Never
operate the Cement Mixer with a damaged part.
Store the Cement Mixer when it is not in use. Store it in a dry, secure place out of the reach of
children. Inspect the Cement Mixer for good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for use with the Cement Mixer.
Accessories that may be suitable for one Cement Mixer may create a risk of injury when used
with another Cement Mixer.
Keep guards in place and in working order.
Keep the Cement Mixer blades clean.
Do not leave the Cement Mixer running unattended.
