14. Care and maintenance
Follow these notes and instructions to ensure that your forced-action mixer machine has a
long life and offers trouble-free service.
Always pull out the power plug before carrying out any cleaning and maintenance work.
Grease or oil all moving parts every 100 operating hours. Check that all moving parts
run smoothly.
Clean the machine, mixing tools and the tub thoroughly every time you finish using them.
Never use any solvents with a flash point of below 70°F (21°C) to clean the machine.
A quick and easy method of cleaning the mixing tools is to tip in a bucket of clean sand or
similar and then switch on the machine for approx. 30 seconds.
Never use a water hose or high-pressure cleaner to clean the machine itself. This
could cause the ball-bearings, etc., to run dry.
Replace all damaged or bent mixing tools.
Make sure that the control pin moves without hindrance at all times and that the limit
switch also works properly at all times. It is imperative that these never become soiled.
Never start the machine if there are any faults or any obvious damage. All faults should
only ever be repaired by a qualified expert.
Use only original replacement parts.
Repairs should only be carried out by qualified experts. The manufacturer also offers a
repair service at its factory.
