INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of a MARSHALLTOWN MP Series Mortar/Plaster Mixer. Made in the USA,
MARSHALLTOWN mixers are rugged and heavy-duty, ready for years of service. MARSHALLTOWN mixers have several
options to suit every contractor’s needs. Among those are:
• 8, 12, and 16 cubic foot drums
• Mechanical or hydraulic drive
• Manual or hydraulic dump
• 2” ball or pintle hitch
• Honda® gasoline engines, or multiple electric motor options
The paddle design of your MARSHALLTOWN mixer has several advantages. Our paddles are bolted into place, allowing
for easy replacement. They also have separate drum scrapers which continually clean the side of the drum and help move
material to the middle of the drum. Our 4/2, 2/2, and 6/2 paddle design ensure “Batch a Minute” results.
Other features of your MARSHALLTOWN mixer include:
• Heavy gauge steel on the entire unit
• Rubber torsion axles on all mixers
• Double belt drive on mechanical mixers
• Square paddle shaft for reduced slippage and better efficiency
• Structural steel frame
• High-speed tow kit with 25" tires
