This mixer is intended for the production of concrete, mortar and plaster. It is not suitable for the mixing of flammable or explosive substances. Do not use the
machine in areas where fumes from paint, solvents or flammable liquids pose a potential hazard.
Inspection
Check your mixer before turning it on. Keep guards in place and in working order. Do not plug the mixer while the motor cover has been removed. Check all
bolts, nuts, and screws for tightness before each use, especially those securing guards and drive mechanisms. Vibration during mixing may cause these to
loosen.
Form a habit of checking to see that all the adjusting tools, shovels, hand trowels and other tools/equipments are removed from mixer area before turning it on.
Replace damaged, missing or failed parts before using it. Warning labels carry important information. Replace any missing or damaged warning labels.
Dress Properly
Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neck-ties or jewellery (rings, wrist watches), they can be caught in moving parts.
Protective electrically non-conductive gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when working.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair, preventing it from getting caught in machinery.
Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Always wear safety goggles and/or face shields. Normal eyeglasses have only impact resistant lenses they
are not safety glasses.
Do Not Abuse Cord
Never carry mixer by cord or yank it to disconnect it from socket.
Keep cord in a safe distance from heat, oil and sharp edges.
Extension Cords
Extension cords must be no longer than 50 meters in length. The wire section must be 1.5mm2 on 230V to allow sufficient current flow to the motor. Improp-
er use of extension cords may cause inefficient operation of the mixer which can result in overheating and motor damage. Only extension cords to H07RN-F
specification intended for outdoor purpose may be used. Avoid use of free and inadequately insulated connections. Connections must be made with protected
material suitable for outdoor use.
Make sure that any extension cord connections are dry and safe. Ensure that the extension cord is carefully laid out avoiding liquids, sharp edges and places
where vehicles might run over it. Avoid allowing the extension cord to be trapped underneath the mixer. Unroll it fully or it will overheat and could catch fire.
Avoid Electrical Shock
Check that the electric circuit is adequately protected and that it corresponds with the power, voltage and frequency of the motor.
Do not plug or unplug the motor while standing in or around damp or wet ground. Do not use the mixer in wet or damp areas or expose it to rain.
Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces: pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.
Make sure your fingers do not touch the plug's metal prongs when plugging or unplugging the mixer.

not pass hands through the clearance between frame and support arm or the one between the drum and support arm.
