Test Run

Once the assembly is complete and you have
read and understand this entire owner's manual,
connect the machine to the power source, then
test run the machine to make sure it runs prop-
erly.

If there is an unusual noise or vibration, stop
using the machine immediately and inspect the
machine for loose fasteners or improperly assem-
bled pieces. If you still cannot remedy a problem,
contact our Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 for
assistance.

9. Place the upper drum on the lower drum with

the gasket between them. Align the arrows
shown in

Figure 11, and secure the upper

and lower drum pieces together with ten M8-
1.25 x 20 hex bolts, 8mm lock washers, and
8mm flat washers.

Note: Tighten these hex bolts progressively
in a criss-cross pattern for even tension all
the way around the drum.

11. Slide the motor assembly onto the bearing

block shaft, then secure the motor assembly
to the frame (

Figure 13). Use two 8mm flat

washers, lock washers, and hex nuts on the
motor assembly studs. Slide the remaining
M8-1.25 x 65 hex bolt through the motor
assembly and frame, then secure on the
other side with an 8mm flat washer, lock
washer, and hex nut.

10. Place a plastic washer between the mounting

holes on the upper end of the mixing blades
and the upper drum. Insert an M10-1.5 x 20
Phillips screw from the outside of the drum
through each mixing blade. Secure each
screw with a 10mm flat washer, lock washer,
and hex nut from the inside (

Figure 12).

Completely tighten all the mixing blade fas-
teners now.
