Mixing of material
WARNING: ALWAYS wear adequate personal protection equipment when
mixing compounds, including safety goggles or a face shield, breathing
protection (specific to the material used), gloves (suitable for the material
used), hearing protection, and a hard hat where required.
WARNING: This tool is designed for two-handed operation. Never use with
one hand, or attempt to mount stationary or prop-up against another object.
Note: ALWAYS refer to the compound manufacturers mixing requirements
and recommendations.
• The shape and size of a mixing paddle that is ideal for a specific
application will depend on the type of material being mixed:
° Substances with a low viscosity such as dispersion paint, varnish,
thinset, sealing and levelling compounds, cement, grout etc., will
require a mixing paddle with a left-hand twist
° Substances with a high viscosity, such as ready-mixed plaster,
concrete, screed, putty and epoxy resin, will require a mixing paddle
with a right hand twist
• It is important to keep the paddle moving throughout the bulk of the
material whilst mixing, as opposed to keeping it in one central position in
the mixing container. Mix until compound is completely blended
WARNING: DO NOT overload the motor whilst mixing. When you recognise
a significant drop in speed, switch off immediately to avoid damage to the
tool. Consider changing to a different mixing paddle or accessory more
suitable for the material.
WARNING: When you have completed the mixing procedure, allow the
mixer to come to a complete stop before lifting it out of the material. Make
sure not to contaminate the environment and clean-up potential spillage.
WARNING: To avoid damage to the machine and cross-contamination
between different materials, always clean the mixing paddle immediately
after use. Don't let the material dry on the accessory. Also, refer to the
paragraph 'Cleaning' in the 'Maintenance' section below.
Accessories
• A range of accessories for your tool, including mixing paddles in
numerous sizes and for different compounds, is available from your

Maintenance
WARNING: ALWAYS disconnect from the power supply before carrying out
any inspection, maintenance or cleaning.
General inspection
• Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight
• Inspect the supply cord of the tool, prior to each use, for damage or wear.
Repairs should be carried out by an authorised Silverline service centre.
This advice also applies to extension cords used with this tool
Cleaning
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts
to wear quickly, and shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of
your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth. If available, use clean, dry,
compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes
• Clean the tool casing with a soft damp cloth using a mild detergent. Do
not use alcohol, petrol or strong cleaning agents
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts
• Use water, a suitable cleaning solution, or mild solvent to clean rests of
material off the accessory. Wear appropriate protection equipment whilst
cleaning, including eye, hand and breathing protection
Note: Dispose of rest material and contaminated cleaning solution
according to regulations. Recycle where possible. Only use non-water
solvents where absolutely necessary and always follow the manufacturer's
guidelines for safe usage.
Lubrication
• Slightly lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals with a suitable
spray lubricant
