9. Use of the correct mixing tub
For guaranteed trouble-free operation and consistently satisfactory mixing results it is
important that you use the original mixing tub.
This is a round 17 gallon plastic tub made of impact-resistant PE material.
Tubs made by other manufacturers do not normally have the same dimensions and this
will prevent the edge scraper form working properly. If a higher tub is used it may not be
possible to close the machine.
Please contact your local dealer for the right original tub.
The machine will not start up unless the mixing tub is in place!
10. Power connection
Prior to any electrical connections of the machine - follow these instructions.
Observe any electrical safety precausions, which are mandatory at the place of operati-
on.
At building sites use the approved electrical supply, with FI-breaker and 0,05 Amp. fault
current. Do not connect to common house outlets.
Make sure, to prevent accidential damage to cables und electrical components.
Rubber cables of the type SJNW 3 x 13 AWG and propper connector must be used.
Unroll the full lenght of cable from the cable drum, to prevent built-up of heat, cable
damage, electric shock, fire and production fall out.
Extreme long cables lead to voltage drop.
Keep cables away from traffic areas.
Important notes:
For 110 volt units:
110 volt machines are delivered with supply cable without electric plug! Make sure that
the corresponding plug is installed by an approved electrician.
The rim scraper is adjusted at the factory. If you readjust it you must take care to ensure
that the arm of the edge scraper does not scrape against the edge of the tub. Adjust the rim
scraper so that it is as close as possible to the edge and bottom of the tub. However, it must
not be in contact with these surfaces. Use the hexagon nut to make the adjustments.
If you are not going to replace the tool with another one, screw the threaded plug onto
the threaded spindle to prevent it from getting soiled. Remember to take account of the
different thread sizes, M 16 and M 18.
When you screw a mixing tool to the spindle, always check the distance between the tool
and the bottom of the tub. The tool must never come into contact with the bottom of the
tub! Then retighten the locking nut against the mixing tool.
