    Univex Corporation. INSTALLATION The Univex VS9 is an attachment with no internal power source. To function, it must be mounted to a power take-off on a mixer or a power base unit. Make sure that a comfortable working clearance is provided around the machinery and that the machinery is installed where it will save the operator steps.
