LOADING THE MIXER
When the mixing blades are rotating, pour the required amount of water into the drum,
then add cement, sand and lime. The desired mixing speed is 33 RPM.
DISCHARGING THE MIXER
Allow the entire mixture to mix for one (1) full minute. DO NOT STOP MIXER FROM
ROTATING. Hold the tilt handle and disengage the drum lock. Dump mortar to the side
by pulling the tilt lever downward. After the mixture is dumped, return the drum to the
operating position and engage drum lock.
CLEANING
To achieve satisfactory performance from the mixer, it is essential to give the drum
reasonable care. Clean the mixer after each use, before the mortar dries and becomes
hard. Never permit mortar to harden on either the inside or outside of the drum. Do not
pound or dent the drum as this impairs mixing efficiency and can cause spot wear on the
drum surface. Spray the entire unit off after each use.
