Dear customer,
congratulations on your choice of purchase: the IMER CONCRETE
MIXER, the result of years of experience, is a very reliable machine
equipped with all the latest technical innovations.
- WORKING IN SAFETY
In order to be able to work in complete safety, the following instruc-
tions must be read carefully.
This OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE manual must be kept on site by
the person responsible for the worksite, e.g. the site foreman, and must
always be available for consultation.
The manual should be considered as being an integral part of the machi-
ne, and must be kept for future reference (EN 12100-2) until the machi-
ne itself is disposed of. In the case of damage or loss it will be possible
to ask the manufacturer for another copy.
The manual contains important information regarding site preparation,
installation, machine use, maintenance procedures and requests for
spare parts. In any case, adequate experience and knowledge of the
machine is essential for maintenance personnel and the user.
To guarantee complete safety of the operator, safe operation and long
life of equipment, follow the instructions in this manual carefully, and
observe all safety standards currently in force for the prevention of
accidents at work. Use personal protection (safety footwear, suitable
clothing, gloves, goggles, etc.).
- Always make sure that signs are legible
- It is strictly forbidden to carry out any form of modifi cation to
the structure or working parts of the machine.
IMER INTERNATIONAL decline any responsibility in the case of non-
compliance with laws and standards governing the use of this equip-
ment. In particular: improper use, defective power supply, lack of main-
tenance, unauthorised modifi cations, partial or total failure to comply
with instructions contained in this manual.
IMER reserves the right to modify the characteristics of the concrete
mixer and/or the contents of this manual without any obligation to upda-
te previous machines or manuals.

4. DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
- The concrete mixer is designed for use on construction sites,
for preparing and mixing concrete, mortars, cement mixes, etc.
- Use of the machine is unadvisable with temperatures below
0° C.
The concrete mixer comprises a frame (ref.1, fi g.1) with two rigid wheels
(ref.2, fi g.1); which supports a swing arm (ref.3, fi g.1).
The reduction unit is fi tted on the latter (ref.6, fi g.1), which is operated
by the electric motor (ref.4, fi g.1) through an isolating poly-V belt (ref.5,
fi g.1).
The mixing drum (ref.7, fi g.1) is connected on the reduction unit taper
output shaft, locked in place by a special screw.
Drum tilting is controlled by turning the hand-wheel (ref.11, fi g.1), which
acts on the helical gear-lead screw reduction unit (ref.10, fi g.1) con-
nected to the arm.
The electric motor is turned on and off by two special buttons on the
electric panel (ref.12, fi g.1).
The electric panel has a wander plug (ref.13, fi g.1) for connection to the
electrical supply.
There is a handle (ref.14, fi g.1) for on-site handling (with the machine
unloaded).
5. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The IMER concrete mixer has been designed for work on building sites
and does not have its own lighting, therefore the place of work must be
well lit (min. 300 lux).
- It must never be used in environments where the danger of
explosions and/or fi res exists.
1. The IMER concrete mixer can only work if fi tted with all the pro-
tective devices in perfect conditions.
2. Do not use improvised and/or faulty power lines.
3. The connection lines on the site must be laid in such a way as
not to be able to be damaged. Do not place the concrete mixer on
the power cable.
4. Socket-plug connections must be placed in such a way as to
prevent the admission of water. Only use connectors fi tted with
protection against splashes of water (IP67).
5. Repairs to the electric systems must be carried out by skilled
personnel only. Do not carry out adjustment or maintenance ope-
rations with the machine powered or moving.
- Keep all parts of body and/or tools clear of mixing drum du-
ring operation.
- When handling the components needed for preparing mor-
tars, take care not to raise dust that could be inhaled. If this is not
possible, wear a mask to protect the mouth and nose.
6. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The dual insulation cement mixer S 140 is manufactured in accordance
with EN 60204-1 specifi cations, is protected against jets of water (IP 55)
and is fi tted with overload and low voltage protection devices.
The cement mixer is also equipped with a safety device to
prevent accidental electrical contacts, with class II dual in-
sulation of all live parts. For this reason it does not require
to be earthed.
- When carrying out repairs, class II protection will only be
maintained if original insulating materials are used and provided
the distances and insulating materials remain unchanged, in par-
ticular the electric motor drive belt, which must have insulating
characteristics.
- If the protection guards are removed during repair opera-
tions, they must be correctly replaced when repairs are completed
(ref.8 and ref.9 fi g.1).
