6. OPERATION
6.1 Drum Tilting
• The spring-loaded tipping wheel with locking lugs provides an easy positive control of the drum which
can be locked in the mix, discharge and stored position.
• The drum is locked in position by lugs on the self-locating tipping wheel which engage into the locking
plate on the mixer frame. To tilt the drum, withdrawn the tipping wheel to dis-engage the locking lugs.
This then allows the tipping wheel and drum to be turned in the same direction.
• To retain the drum in position, aligning the lugs with the slots, release the tipping wheel a little while
retaining the drum. Rotate the tipping wheel until the locking lugs engage into the locking plate on the
mixer frame.
