EN Proper use
The machine is designed for mixing liquid and powder-
based building products such as paints, mortar,
adhesives, plaster and similar substances. Use the right
mixing tool for the consistency of the material and the
quantity to be mixed.
Please refer to the information in the technical data
when choosing the size of mixing tool (diameter/
mixing action). If the wrong mixing action or mixing tool
diameter is selected, this may cause the machine/gear
unit to become overloaded and lead to damage as a
result. Please remember that a mixing tool with a mixing
action from the top down puts a greater strain on the
electrical tool than one with the reverse mixing action.
This electrical tool is not designed for use in continuous
operation.
Given the high torque levels generated by the machine, it
must not be used as a power drill.
The machine must not be used for the preparation of
foodstuffs.
The machine is not suitable for mixing materials
containing graphite dust, brine or slurry. Mixing of
these materials or substances may damage the machine
beyond repair.
Assembly
 Always pull the power plug out of the socket outlet
before carrying out any work on the machine.
Fitting the mixing tool mount:
Take the HEXAFIX coupling or size M14 adapter supplied
with the packaging and screw it to the male thread of the
mixing shaft.
Fitting the mixing tool / tool change-over:
HEXAFIX (Fig. A)
Insert the mixing tool with the HEXAFIX mount in
the coupling until it locks. To release or change the
mixing tools, simply pull back the handle-collar
on the coupling and this releases the mixing tool.
(Fig. C)
M-14 (Fig. B)
Screw the mixing tool with a size M14 male thread into
the M14 adapter on the mixing shaft. The mixing tool
tightens itself during operation.
To release the mixing tool you will need one SW 22
and one SW 24 open-ended wrench. Place the one
open-ended wrench on the adapter and the other on
the hexagonal holding fixture and turn them both in
opposite directions to one another until the mixing tool
is released.
Operation
Check that the power supply shown on the rating

plate is the same as the mains power supply.
Always hold the machine with both hands.
Press the starting lockout button
1.
(1).
Press the ON/OFF switch (2).
The more pressure you apply to
the ON/OFF switch,
the faster the machine will run.
2.
The ON/OFF switch cannot be
locked!
Always work with the ON/OFF switch fully pressed.
To stop working, release the ON/OFF switch.
Machines with 2-speed gear units (Xo4R/Xo6R) have two
maximum speeds available (First gear: Slow / Second
gear: Fast).
To change from one gear to the
other, turn the gear selection
lever through 180°.
Only ever actuate it when the
machine is at a standstill.
Tips for safe working:
Always reduce the speed when submerging the mixing
tool in the mixing material or lifting it out. Once the
mixing tool is fully submerged, increase the speed again
to ensure that the motor is adequately cooled.
During mixing you should guide the machine around
the mixing container. Continue mixing until all of the
mixing material is completely mixed. Please follow the
processing instructions of the manufacturer of the
material.
You work better and safer when the mixing tool used is
clean, free of material residues and in perfect condition.
The greater the viscosity of the material, the greater
the impact of the torque forces on the machine, so you
should be prepared for this when you carry out your
work.
If the mixing tool comes into contact with a surface (e.g.
the bottom of the tub) while running, it may kick back.
Set the machine down resting on the guard handle after
you have finished your mixing work.
For transportation purposes the HEXAFIX mixing tool can
be inserted through the hexagon punch-hole provided in
the handle frame.
