Mixer Cleaning

1.ALWAYS disconnect the spark plug wire (gasoline engines) before cleaning the inside of the drum. If mixer is equipped with an electric motor remove power cord from AC power receptacle. In addition make sure the clutch engagement lever is dis-engaged.

2.Make sure the rear section of the safety grate is connected to the mixing drum.

3.At the end of each day’s operation, place mixer drum in an upright position and spray inside of tub immediately with water to prevent lumps of dried mortar or plaster from forming and contamination of future batches, DO NOT allow a buildup of materials to form on the blades or anywhere inside the drum.

4.Rotate mixer to dump position and remove debris.

5.Thoroughly clean the entire mixer, wheels, cabinet and frame.

6.NEVER pour or spray water over the engine or electric motor (Figure 33).
