Setup / initial operation
Attention:
The machine must be disconnected from the mains supply before all cleaning and maintenance work as well as assem-
bly and disassembly of, e.g., the mixing tube, mixing shaft, metering shaft, safety grille, electrical units!
Assembling the mixing tube: Tightly fasten the pipe to the funnel housing using the two clamping levers on the water
inlet. Make sure that both sealing surfaces are free of incrustations and clean.
Inserting the mixing shaft: Insert the shaft through the mixing tube and insert it into the transport/metering shaft. Here,
too, remove any soiling first. Do not grease the end of the mixing shaft!
Fixing the mixing shaft: The cover fastened to the mixing shaft is tightly fastened to the mixing tube by means of the
two front clamping levers. Ensure a clean sealings surface here, too.
Caution:
The safety screw in the middle of the cover must remain in place even during cleaning work! Otherwise, the operating
safety of the mixing shaft is insufficient during assembly and disassembly!
Connect the water supply to the mixing pipe
Install and secure the protective grid with the bag opener rail
Water connection
Use a 3/4" water hose as the supply line. A water back pressure of at least 3.5 bar is recommended.
Note:
Bleed the water supply line before connecting!
Tip:
Before the material container is filled, test for correct function of the mixer and bleed the water supply line on the unit.
Shut-off the drain tap at the bottom on the pipeline. Remove the water supply line from the mixing tube and point into
a bucket. Close the metering valve on the water supply line of the unit and open it again approx. 10 turns. Press the
green On switch. The shafts begin to rotate and water escapes from the water supply line. Press the red Off button:
The device stops, the solenoid valve shuts off the flow of water. Reconnect the water supply line to the mixing pipe.
Fill the material hopper with material.
Place the catchment container below the mixing tube outlet.
Switch the mixer back on at the green On switch and regulate the viscosity of the escaping material at the metering
valve by closing the valve.
There will be a delay before material with the set viscosity exits the material outlet due to the length of the mixing
tube.
Important:
For a constant mixing result, sufficient material must always be filled into the material hopper - the metering shaft
must not be visible!
- Once the desired viscosity has been set, switch off the unit using the red Off switch.
Please note:
Mix the resulting material with a hand mixer and possibly thicken it by adding dry material, it can be used for manual
processing.
Now place a catchment container or the funnel of a feed pump under the outlet.
Avoid operating breaks of more than 30 minutes! Never expose the mixer to direct sunlight during operation.
