Never charge or fill the unit prior to starting the mixing blades as an overload
encountered in starting a loaded unit could damage the engine/motor or drive
components.
Connect safety chains only as instructed as noted in section 3 of this manual
when towing the mixer. Connect only to a hitch, or pintle type coupler.
Keep warning, caution and safety instruction labels clean and in good condition.

2 – ASSEMBLY AND PRO-OPERATIONAL CHECKS
The only assembly required on this mixer is the installation of the drum tilt handle.
Remove the handle from the bag shipped in the drum and install, referring to parts
list Figure 5.
The following steps should be taken prior to placing the mixer in use:
1. The operator must be familiar with the location and operation of all controls.
2. Check the crankcase oil level on gasoline powered units, and fill the fuel tank
before attempting to start.
3. Check for free rotation of the paddles and mixer shaft. Rotate the drum
through one complete dump-charge-dump cycle. Ensure that no foreign
objects or tools are in the drum before starting engine/motor.
4. Start engine/motor, engage drive and check for smooth operation of paddle
arms, shaft, and drive components.
5. Engage and disengage clutch several times to ensure proper operation.
