OPERATING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
A double batch of material is made in 5 minutes or less
1
without straining the laborer's or compromising the
integrity of the mix. No electricity or pressurized water
source is needed, just a standard mechanical batch
mixer. The silo is transportable. As the job progresses,
the crew and silo mixing station follows.
This is how it works:
2
Step 1: To erect the silo on site, make sure the ground is
dry, level and compacted. With a 26-foot, 4,500 lb capacity
standard forklift, insert the forks of the lift into the silo's
fork pockets and raise the unit to the desired height. Four
heights are available.
Step 2: Using the double leg pins attached to the frame,
secure the upper silo assembly by sliding the leg pins into
position. Then secure the pins with the safety locking pins.
Next, attach the valve gate handle in its place and get ready
3
to load your SPEC MIX product into the silo.
Step 3: The bulk bags are easily loaded into the silo by
inserting the forks through the bag's reinforced loops. Once
the bag is above the silo and in position over the upper dust
shroud, the laborer standing on the safety platform can
release the bag's double discharge chutes.
Step 4: After the silo is loaded with four to five 3,000 lb bulk
bags, place the batch mixer beneath the cone under the
4
silo's boot. If needed, trim the length of the boot to the top
of the mixer. To make product, add the desired amount of
water to the mixer and pull back the silo handle to dispense
the amount of material needed to achieve the preferred
consistency. Any size batch can be made. Let the product
mix four to five minutes to ensure complete hydration of all
materials for optimal workability and board life.
Step 5: The silo is easily relocated on site to position your
5
mixing station as close as possible to the work, maximizing
job site efficiency. With the silo legs pinned in the up or
down position, insert the forks of the lift into the silo's fork
pockets. Then, raise the silo and place it in the preferred
location. Make sure the forklift is equipped to safely
transport the silo and that the new terrain is dry, level and
stable. Always secure all leg pins and safety pins!
