Mixing Hints

A few hints on mixing. First add water, about 1 /2 gallons approximately, depending on the type of mix. Cement should go in after some of the aggregates work consistently to the ratio of ingredients as listed below for whatever type of concrete mix you are working to. Beware of low grade aggregates, this only leads to trouble later on with sinking and frost spoiling the appearance of the pour. Also importantly do not get the concrete mix too wet as this can reduce the strength and is less able to withstand weathering. Never throw material into the mixer, trickle it steadily over the rim or it will stick mixing time for concrete is  1/2 minutes, this is taken when all the material, including the water has entered the drum. Over mixing can reduce strength and cause segregation of the coarser aggregates. 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. Do not throw bricks into a mixer drum to clean it out. The best method is 1” gravel and clean water, use plenty of it, as this will do the job in half the time.

Service & Maintenance

Before starting any maintenance or repairs, switch off motor, and isolate from the main power supply.
On completion of maintenance, check that the mixer functions correctly and that all guards are correctly fitted.
ELECTRIC MIXER
All portable electric appliances are dangerous if abused. This machine will only operate on one voltage. Check the power supply to ensure it corresponds to the voltage as indicated on the rating label.
Make sure that the motor is switched off before you plug it into the power supply.
230v – Always use a Residual Current Device (“RCD”), (earth leakage trip), plugged directly into the 230v socket. If using an extension cable, plug it directly into the RCD. 110v – When using a portable transformer it must have a minimum output of 2.5kw and to continuous rated.
The symbols on the ON/OFF switch are 0 (Red)=OFF and I (Green)=ON in accordance with international standards.
Ensure cable is fitted with cable clip to the mixer frame at all times.
EXTENSION CABLES
If you need to use an extensAon cable it must be no longer than 30 metres (100 feet) in length. The wire section must be 1.5mmh on 230v. Ensure that the extension cable is carefully laid out avoiding liquids, sharp edges and places where vehicles might run over it. Avoid allowing the extension cable to be trapped underneath the mixer. Unroll it fully or it will overheat and could catch fire. Make sure that any extension cable connections are dry and safe.
THERMAL PROTECTION DEVICE
The Electric motor is fitted with a Thermal Protection Device. Should circumstances arise where this activates, the motor will stop. Once the thermal trip resets itself the motor will be able to be restarted at the on/off switch.
The thermal trip reset time could vary from 2 minutes to 10 minutes.
CLEANING
Wipe off any external material. DO NOT use petrol, turpentine, lacquer or paint thinner, dry cleaning fluids or similar products. Never let any liquids near the engine/motor. Use 1″ gravel and clean water to clean the inside of the drum. DO NOT use bricks etc. as this will damage the drum.

Ensure the extension lead is always unplugged before the motor cover is removed.
Any maintenance and repairs carried out, to any of the electric components must be undertaken by a qualified electrician.
