Starting the Electric Motor

MC-92P/S CONCRETE MIXER — INITIAL START-UP (ELECTRIC MOTOR)

Initial Start-up Instructions (Electric Motor)

Starting

CAUTION:

DO NOT attempt to operate the mixer until the Safety, General Information and Inspection sections have been read and understood.

1.Before starting, make sure mixer is positioned on a secure flat surface to prevent rolling.

2.Use an extension cord (see Table 5) of adequate current carrying capacity,insert theelectricmotor'spower plug into one end of the extension cord.

3.NEVER! use a worn or frayed extension cord.

4.NEVER! operate mixer withV-belt cover removed.

DANGER

NEVER! touch the power cord (Figure 16) with wet hands or while standing in water when it is connected to a power source.The possibly exists of electrical shock (electrocution) even death. NEVER! spray water directly on the electric motor.

Figure 16. Extension Cord (Wet Hands)

To prevent personnel from tripping over the extension cord, position the

NOTE extension cord so that it lays flat and is not curled underneath the mixer.

5.Place the voltage selector switch (Figure 17) in the position thatisinaccordancewithvoltagelistedontheelectricmotor's nameplate. Theelectricmotor'sareshippedfromthefactory withthewiththevoltageselectorswitchplacedinthe115VAC position.

If 230VAC is required, remove the locking bolt and nut and flip the voltage selector toggle switch to the 230 VAC position. Reinstall the locking bolt and nut to prevent the toggle switch from being accidently tripped.

(115 VAC Position)

6.Plug the other end of the extension cord into either a 115 or 230 VAC power source (look at position of voltage selector switch). Remember to read the nameplate to determine the motor's input voltage requirement.

WARNING:

ALWAYS read the label on the electric motor before applying power.The label will indicate the correct power requirements for the motor. Remember the use of an incorrect input voltage will severely damage the electric motor.

1.Set the electric motor's ON/OFF switch (Figure 18) to the ON position.

MC-92P, MC-92S specifications

The Multiquip MC-92S and MC-92P are high-performance concrete mixers designed for professional use in construction and masonry applications. These models offer a blend of power, durability, and user-friendly features, catering to the demands of contractors and construction workers who require reliable equipment for mixing concrete, mortar, and other materials.

The MC-92S is equipped with a robust 9.0 horsepower Honda gasoline engine that provides ample power for even the most demanding mixing tasks. This model features a 9 cubic feet capacity drum, allowing for larger batches of mixed material. The MC-92S is designed with a heavy-duty steel frame that enhances its durability and stability during operation. The drum is constructed with abrasion-resistant steel, ensuring longevity and minimizing wear over time.

In contrast, the MC-92P utilizes a powerful 9.0-horsepower propane engine, making it an excellent choice for users who prefer cleaner fuel options. This model retains many of the same design features as the MC-92S, including the enhanced drum capacity and rugged frame. The propane engine not only provides a quieter operation but also reduces emissions, making it a more environmentally friendly option without compromising performance.

One of the standout technologies in both models is the innovative mixing mechanism. The unique design of the mixing blades ensures efficient and consistent blending of materials, reducing the time required for mixing and enhancing the quality of the final product. Additionally, the MC-92 series features a manual dump system, which allows operators to easily and accurately discharge mixed material from the drum.

Safety is a primary concern in construction, and Multiquip has incorporated several safety features into these mixers. The control panel is designed for easy access and includes safety switches that prevent accidental start-up. The sturdy base and low center of gravity provide stability during operation, reducing the risk of tipping.

In summary, the Multiquip MC-92S and MC-92P concrete mixers are exceptional tools for professionals needing reliable, efficient, and versatile mixing equipment. With their powerful engines, capacity, durability, and innovative mixing technologies, they stand out in the competitive market of concrete mixers, ensuring that construction projects run smoothly and efficiently.
