Mixer setting
To make concrete or mortar, the mixing drum must be locked in a
specific position. Only the proper mixer setting ensures optimal
mixing results and smooth operation.
Hold handwheel tightly while rotating.
Step on the pedal.
Rotate the mixing drum up
to the appropriate recess
for the material you are

Additional safety instructions
• Only fill or empty the mixing drum when the motor is running.
• Check the stability of the mixer.
Preparing material for mixing:
1. Pour in water and few shovels full of aggregate (sand,
gravel,... ).
2. Add a few shovels full of binding agent (cement, lye, ...).
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you reach the proportions required
for mixing.
4. Allow material to mix thoroughly.
Have a professional advise you regarding the composition
and quality of the material being mixed.
Emptying the mixing drum:
Hold handwheel tightly while rotating.
1. Step on the pedal.

Transport
Turn off the machine and disconnect
the power plug before each transport.
Point the opening of the mixing drum downwards.
Storage
Store machines that are not in use in a dry locked place protected
against frost and outside the reach of children and unauthorized
persons.
Point the opening of the mixing drum downwards.
In order to increase the service life of the concrete mixer
and operate it without glitches, the rotating mechanism should be
treated with an environmentally compatible spray oil before the
mixer is put into storage for unusually long periods.
Cleaning
Additional safety instructions
Turn off the machine and disconnect the
power plug before each cleaning work.
• Switch off machine and pull plug if you have to touch the
machine (with hand, brush, scraper, rag, etc.) while cleaning
it. Do not start machine during cleaning work.
• Protective devices removed for cleaning must be properly
remounted before starting the machine.
• Do not spray water directly on the motor or the switch, nor on
the ventilation apertures in the motor housing.
Notes on cleaning:
• Before taking a break and after finishing work, clean the
concrete mixer inside and out.
• Do not pound on the mixing drum with hard objects (hammer,
shovel, etc.). A dented mixing drum impairs mixing operations
and is difficult to clean, besides.
• To clean the inside of the drum, put in some water and a few
shovels full of gravel and set the drum to revolving.
• Remove any concrete or mortar left sticking to the teeth of the
axle-drive bevel gear or the crown gear segments immediately.
Maintenance
Turn off the machine and disconnect the
power plug before each maintenance.
The concrete mixer requires practically no maintenance.
The mixing drum and drive shaft are bedded on ball bearings with
permanent lubrication.
Never grease the ring gear!
To preserve the value of the mixer and increase its service life,
handle it as described in "Storage". Furthermore, the concrete
mixer should be checked regularly for signs of wear and tear or
functional deficiencies. This applies especially to moving parts,
screw connections, protective devices and electrical parts.
