TOWING & SAFETY CHAINS
For transporting the mixer, slide the tow pole out as far as possible and insert the locking pin. Make sure drum is locked in
position and engine housing is closed and secured; cross the safety chains under the tow pole and fasten them to the tow
vehicle. (fig.1) When operating the mixer, slide the tow pole in and lock it in place.
NOTE! Safety chain length may need to be altered for proper connection to tow vehicle. Reposition the hooks, DO NOT cut
chain.
Allow enough slack to permit proper vehicle turning while keeping chains snug
enough to prevent tow pole from contacting the ground in case the hitch uncouples.

PRIOR TO START UP
1. Examine the mixer carefully to make sure there was no damage during shipment or since the last use. Report any
damage immediately to the transportation company. Repair any damage before using the mixer.
2. Check the engine oil. Fill as required. Refer to the engine manual for oil specifications.
3. Fill the fuel tank with fresh, clean fuel. Refer to the engine manual for fuel specifications.
4. Grease all fittings as called out in the lubrication specifications.
5. Check for free rotation of the mixer drum yoke by rotating the drum through one complete dump-charge-dump cycle.
Make sure no foreign objects or tools are in the drum before starting the motor.
6. Start the motor and check for smooth operation of the drum, ring gear, and pinion.
Note: After initial 10 hours of operations, check chain/belts for proper tension and sprockets/pulleys for alignment. Check
these items monthly to prevent premature wear/failure.
LUBRICATION
Use lithium based grade 2 multi-purpose grease.
Drum Shaft Tube:
Drum shaft lubrication can be performed by removing the 1/8” pipe plug and installing the appropriate
grease fitting. Greasing should be done yearly.
Yoke Bearing Hangers:
Yoke bearing hangers are located on the yoke ends and are equipped with grease fittings. These bearings should be
greased weekly.
Wheel Bearings:
Grease wheel bearings once per year. Thoroughly remove old grease from bearings and spindle before repacking.
Pack bearings 1/2to 2/3full to prevent overheating.
Drum Tilt Brake Bearing:
The brake bearing casting is located near the front of the mixer and should be greased weekly.
Handwheel Bearing:
The handwheel hub bearing is located on the front of the mixer, behind the handwheel. This bearing should be
greased weekly.
WARNING: DO NOT GREASE BRAKE BAND OR OUTER BRAKING SURFACE OF TILT GEAR.
Jack Shaft Bearings:
Pillow block style bearings are used on the drive train counter shaft. These bearings should be greased weekly.
Drive Chain:
The drive chain should be lubricated monthly with SAE #20 or SAE #30 oil. Apply the oil between the side plates.

STORAGE
For short term storage, clean the mixer and store in a dry place. If the mixer is not to be used for an extended period of
time, service mixer completely and store it in a dry place.
1. Refer to motor/engine instructions for storage instructions.
2. Cover exposed metal surfaces with a thin coat of SAE 30 engine oil.
3. Lubricate per instructions under LUBRICATION section.
GETTING READY FOR MIXING
Lay out forms for your concrete floor, patio, driveway, sidewalk, etc. The quality of concrete is directly related to the quality of
the cement paste. Calculate the proportions of your mix components (cement, sand and coarse aggregate) according to the
job specifications.
LOADING THE MIXER
Start the mixer. Refer to motor/engine instructions. After drum has started rotating, pour about half of the water in the drum.
NOTE: The drum may leak slightly when first used. This will stop after a few batches. Add aggregate (gravel) first then
cement second and sand last. Then add remaining water as needed.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Start the drum rotating.
2. Add
1/2water.
3. Add cement and one shovelful of coarse aggregate. The coarse aggregate will break up any lumps in the cement.
4. Add remaining aggregate: crushed stone, pit-run gravel or sand.
5. Add remaining water as needed.
6. Mix batch for approximately one minute. Drum speed should be about 25 r.p.m. (NOTE: Mixing times may change.)
UNLOADING THE MIXER
Allow the entire mixture to mix for one full minute. Do not stop mixer from rotating.
Hold the tilt handle and unlock the stop lever. Dump concrete to either side by tilting
the tilt handle in the direction required. (NOTE: Mixing times may change.)
EXTENSION CORDS-ELECTRIC MOTOR
The following size extension cords should be used for this mixer: length of cord, up to 100 ft-14 gauge wire; up to 200 ft-12
gauge wire; up to 300 ft – 10 gauge wire; up to 400 ft – 8 gauge wire.
CARE OF MIXER
It is important to keep the inside of the mixing drum free of hardened concrete. After discharging the last batch of concrete
each day, add a pailful of water and two shovelfuls of gravel to the drum. This will scour the inside of the drum. Mix for
about two minutes, discharge and rinse the drum with water. Never permit concrete to harden on either the inside or outside
of drum.
