- Do not rush the learning process and do not take anything for granted, it is essential to
familiarize yourself with your new mixer before operating.
- Do not attempt to operate the mixer under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
STEP 2: MIXER SET UP
- Before using the mixer, check that all protection devices are in place and in good
condition. If a protection is removed for maintenance or repair, reinstall it immediately
after maintenance or repair is completed. Damaged protections must be replaced
immediately.
- The mixer has been designed to be towed by a tractor. It is strictly forbidden to use
any other type of vehicle to tow it, as the stability and visibility conditions on the
different mixer mechanisms during the use may vary considerably.
In order to hitch the tractor with the mixer, consider the following:
- Make sure nobody is around the mixer when approaching the tractor.
- Adjust the height of the hitch and center the shot with the tractor, never center it
manually. Perform this operation with the mixer completely horizontal.
- When lowering the jack, make sure there is no crushing risk.
- Couple the mixer hoses and electric connections to the tractor using work gloves.
Once the mixer is hitched, in order to connect the PTO shaft, take into account the
following precautions:
- Check the hitch has been correctly done.
- To avoid transmission damage, adjust the tractor drawbar to the recommended
setting. The mixer should be leveled with the tractor when hitching.
- Be sure the tractor power take-off (PTO) is not working.
- Handle the transmission elements with work gloves.
- Do not wear loose clothes at the time of this operation.

- Adjust the rearview mirrors of the tractor so there is good visibility of the mixer
mechanisms, and without their adjustment affecting the visibility for driving. It is
recommended to request the help of another person to perform this operation.
- Check the presence of people before moving the mixer. Be careful with the spectators,
especially with the children. Always look around to make sure it is safe to start the
engine and move the unit. If necessary, indicate with the horn or other means that the
mixer will be set in motion. This is very important, since with the noise levels of the
tractor / mixer and the isolation of the cabins, you cannot hear people screaming.
- It is strictly forbidden to operate the mixer by several people simultaneously, so it will
only be used by the driver.
- It is strictly forbidden to transport people, animals or any type of objects on the mixer.
- Under no circumstances will the mixer be used to tow other vehicles, move or push
objects or lift loads. It is strictly forbidden to access the mixer through the loading device

- The use of flashing amber lights is acceptable in most locations, however, some
prohibit their use. It must be checked for all road lighting and comply with the
requirements established by local laws.
- When driving the mixer by road or highway below 20 MPH (40 KPH) at night or during
the day, use amber or/and a slow-moving vehicle (SMV) with the emblem of
identification.
- Plan your route to avoid heavy traffic. Be a courteous and safe driver. Always give way
to traffic in risky situations, such as narrow bridges, intersections, etc.

- As a precaution, recheck the mixer every 100 hours of operation. Correct all problems
and follow maintenance safety procedures.
- Never leave the mixer running unattended.
STEP 7: MAINTENANCE WORKS. HIGH PRESSURE FLUIDS, WELDS…
It is the responsibility of the owner/operator of
the mixer to perform good maintenance. Poor
maintenance is an invitation to have problems
and breakdowns.

VERTICAL TOWED MIXER - ONE AUGER
VN & V SERIES
Tatoma Ag Equipments Corp. Located in Colcord, OK. Phone [phone]
- 18 -
- The area where the maintenance of the mixer is done should
be sufficiently ventilated. Never do these works with the tractor
engine running in a closed building. Exhaust gases can cause
suffocation.
- Before working inside the mixer, stop the vehicle completely,
apply the parking brake, disengage the power take-off and
power cables, turn off the engine and remove the ignition key.
- Make sure all moving parts of the accessories have stopped
completely before performing any maintenance work.
- Always use a safety system to block the wheels, such as parking blocks. Never use a
jack to support or support the mixer while doing such work.
- Always use the most appropriate tools and equipment for the type of work you do by
hand. Always wear protective gloves and be very careful when making adjustments.
- Replace all covers and protections after repair and before moving the mixer.
- After work, make sure that all the tools, parts and equipment
that have intervened in the service are collected separately.
- Pressurized fluid can penetrate the skin through openings
and small wounds and cause serious injury or death.
- Avoid this danger, relieving hydraulic pressure before
disconnecting any hydraulic line. Tighten all connections
before applying pressure.
- Never use your hands to locate hydraulic leaks in pressure
pipes. Look for possible leaks with a small piece of cardboard
where oil is reflected and protects hands and body from high
pressure fluids.
- If this accident occurs, go to the nearest medical
center immediately. The fluid injected into the skin
should be surgically removed within the first few
hours or it could cause gangrene.
- Do not allow grease to accumulate and remove
spilled oil immediately from the ladder and the
operator platform and other access areas. Keep all
access areas clean and clear of obstacles.
