under the discharge port.
Furthermore, we have for safety reasons installed a
thermal relay. The thermal relay protects the electric
motor when overheating occurs. The mixer is protected
against automatic restarting and the thermal relay needs
to be reset before the mixer can be used again.
The rated power is stated on the electric motor
machine sign. In accordance with EN 60204-1 the machine
is equipped with a main switch.
When the mixer is transported by means of secured hoists
it must only be lifted by the three lifting points.

The optimum mixing (mixing time) is achieved by filling
water directly through the centre cover of the mixer.
In this way the water will be equally distributed in the mixer
pan during the mixing.
For the adjustment of the required discharge height please
follow the instructions below:
The discharge height of the mixer should be set at the
required height before starting the mixer. Then the mixer
is lifted by means of a crane or a forklift truck in order to
relieve the telescope legs. The cotter pins and bolts on the
