PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The machine has been designed to mix liquid and

powdery building materials such as paint, adhesives,

plaster mortar and similar substances. Up to 200Ltr

mixing volume. The relevant mixing action (which

depends on the consistency of the materials and the

quantity that has to be mixed) must be set up for the

appropriate mixing tool.

This manual must be kept in a safe place so that the

information that it contains is always available. This

operating manual must accompany the equipment if it

is transferred to somebody else.

We do not accept any liability for accidents or

damage arising from ignoring this manual and the

safety instructions.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using power tools, you must observe the

following basic safety precautions in order to ensure

protection from electric shocks, injury and fire.

Read and follow all the instructions before using this

power tool. Look after the notes on safety.
The machine has been double-insulated in accordance

with EN60745: therefore, an earth wire is not necessary

USE CORRECT SUPPLY VOLTAGE:

The power supply voltage must match the information

quoted against the tools.

Use of an approved RCD circuit breaker between

the machine and the electrical power point is highly

recommended.

USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD:

Only use an approved extension cable that is suitable

for the machine’s power.

When the extension cable is on a reel, unroll the cable

in its entirety.

SWITCH OFF THE MACHINE IMMEDIATELY IN CASE OF:

1. Malfunction in the mains plug, power cable or

damaging of cable.

2. Broken switch.

3. Smoke or strong smell of burning.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all

instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or

serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

1) Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark

areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence

of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create

sparks which may ignite the

dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to

lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter

plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.

Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk

of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces, such as

pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an

increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of

electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for

carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep

cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of

electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord

suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric

shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)

protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of

electric shock.
