right in the adapter ErgoFix [2-2] (wrench
size 19) and use the wrench to tighten it.
► Fasten the ErgoFix adapter to the stirrer
bar, then insert the assembled stirrer into
the slot of the spindle.
To set-up the working height see chapter
6.2 Switching the machine on and off
Always hold the machine with both hands
- one on the right handle [1-2] and one
on the left handle [1-7].
The switch [1-3] serves as on/off switch
(press = ON, release = OFF).
Using the switch button to control the speed
(acceleration function switch)
You can use the switch [1-3] to change the level
of the speed until it reaches the speed range
that is set by the speed controller.
Continuous operation
By pressing the switch [1-3] as far as it goes
and pressing the locking switch button [1-4] at
the same time, you can activate continuous op­
eration. Press and release the switch but­
ton [1-3] again to switch off continuous opera­
tion.
6.3 Electronics
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up
ensures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
At the same time, this also prevents the materi­
als to be stirred from spurting out of the mixing
container. Thanks to the low starting current of
the machine, a 10 A fuse is sufficient.
Speed control
You can use the speed control [1-5] to set the
speed:
MX 1000 RE EF, MX 1200 RE EF
Level 1 360 Level 4
Level 2 410 Level 5
Level 3 470 Level 6
The speed depends on the stirrer rod that is
used and on the material that you want to proc­
ess.
Overload protection
Electronic overload protection protects the mo­
tor from damage if there is an extreme over­
load. In this case, the motor remains at a stand­
still and only starts up again once the load has
been removed. To restart the machine, you
must switch it on again.
Constant speed
The electronics maintain an almost constant
speed and load; this ensures that the material
is mixed evenly.
Temperature-dependent overload protection
6.4 .
(VALID for the type MX 1200 RE EF)
To protect the machine against overheating if
you are using it for an extremely prolonged pe­
riod, switch the safety electronics to the cooling
mode as soon as the critical temperature is
reached. You cannot load the machine and it
runs at a reduced speed. Approx. 2 minutes af­
ter cooling, the machine is again ready for use
and fully able to take loads.
Restart protection
The built-in restart protection prevents the
power tool from starting up again automatically
if the power is disconnected during continuous
use. To put the power tool back into operation,
it must first be switched off and then on again.
6.4 ErgoFix interface
Height setting
The working height of the machine can be indi­
vidually adjusted to achieve an upright working
position.
► Push the casing of the ErgoFix adapt­
er [1-11] in the direction of the machine to
move it as far as it goes and hold it tight.
► By pulling on the stirrer rod, you can pull
the ErgoFix adaptor out of the machine
spindle. In this way, you can adjust five dif­
ferent working heights. One step is 2 cm.
The maximum adjustment movement is
8 cm.
► Then release the clamping ring of the Ergo­
Fix adapter [1-11] and check that the adapt­
er [1-10] is seated securely in the machine
spindle.

► Ensure that the adapter [1-10] remains
clean.
► Do not lubricate the adaptor [1-10].
► Only press the ErgoFix casing [1-11] when
the machine is not in operation.
The ErgoFix interface enables you to easily and
quickly remove the stirrer rod from the ma­
chine.
► Push the clamping ring of the ErgoFix
adapter [1-11] in the direction of the ma­
