The drum is locked in position by lugs on the
self-locating tipping wheel which engage into
the locking plate on the mixer frame. To tilt the
drum, withdrawn the tipping wheel to dis-engage
the locking lugs. This then allows the tipping
wheel and drum to be turned in the same
direction.
To retain the drum in position, aligning the lugs
with the slots, release the tipping wheel a little
while retaining the drum. Rotate the tipping
wheel until the locking lugs engage into the
locking plate on the mixer frame.

Emptying Position Storage Position
LOADING
Completely unwind the extension
cord. Connect it to the concrete
mixer first before plugging in power
supply.
Always start the mixer before
loading the drum. Loading the drum
with drum rotating.
Do not throw material into the
mixer to avoid sticking firmly to
the back of the drum. Trickle it
steadily over the ram.
For best results, proceed as follows:
1. Add the required amount of gravel into the
drum.
Add the required amount of cement into the
drum.
2.
Add the required amount of sand into the
drum.
3.
Pour the required amount of water into the
drum.
4.
EMPTYING
Do not turn mixer off while full of
load. Emptying the drum with drum
rotating.
CLEANING
Never put hands inside the drum
with drum rotating.
Thoroughly clean the mixer at the end of each
day’s operation. Keep your mixer clean. The
slightest trace of material left in the drum will
harden and attract more each time you use it
until the machine is useless. Dried cement should
be scraped out of the drum. Do not throw bricks
into mixer drum to clean it out. Do not beat on
the drum with a shovel, a hammer or other tools
to break up accumulations of dried cement mix,
as damage to the mixer may result. The drum
may be scoured for approximate 2 minutes,
using 1” gravel and water mixture. Then
discharge the gravel/water mixture and hose
down the drum assembly inside and out. The
IP45D or IP44D protection class construction
of the concrete mixer enables you to hose down
the drum assembly safely.
A built-in thermal protecter is
arranged in the motor to prevent it
from overheating. The thermal
protecter restores automatically
when the motor cools down.
