MG-30 PUMP — INITIAL START-UP (MIXER MOBIL ONLY)
This section is intended to assist the operator with the initial
start-up of the
ESSICK Model EM120SM mixer. It is extremely
important that this section be read carefully before attempting to
use the mixer in the field. The mixer unit is
not available on the
TAG unit.
DO NOT use your mixer until this section has
been read and thoroughly understood.
CAUTION:
Failure to understand the operation of the
ESSICK Model EM120SM mixer could result
in severe damage to the mixer or personal
injury.
STARTING THE ENGINE
The following steps outline the procedure for starting the mixer's
engine .
1. Make sure the clutch engagement lever (Figure 22) is in
the dis-engage position (lever is pointing towards the
engine end ).
2 PUSH the "RED" button (Figure 20) on the throttle control
and pull the round black knob about halfway out. Make
sure that the throttle lock knob has been dis-engaged.

3. Pull the starter grip (Figure 21) lightly until you feel
resistance, then pull briskly. Return the starter grip gently.
MIXING
1. The paddle shaft inside the drum should be rotating at this
time.
2. Lift the mixing bag compound onto the steel grate over the
bag cutter and let the contents fall into the drum.
3. Add water, and mix compound to desired consistency,
Be sure to stand clear of the dump handle
when the mixer is operational. Any binding of
material between the mixer blades and the
drum will cause the drum and dump handle to
suddenly move upwards, thus causing bodily
harm.
4. Push the clutch engagement lever forward (Figure 22),
toward the tow end of the mixer. When engine starts adjust
throttle lever so that paddle shaft inside mixer rotates
between 30 - 40 RPM's. The number of RPM's will vary
depending on the load.
