STOW CMS-44S CONCRETE MIXER — GENERAL INFORMATION

Application

This mixer is

only intended for the production of concrete.

The mixer must be used for its intended purpose and is not
suitable for the mixing of

flammable or explosive

substances. The mixer

must not be used in an explosive

atmosphere. Use Table 4 (Mixing Hints) as a guide when
mixing concrete for various applications.

Power Plants

The STOW CMS-44S mixer can be powered by either a Honda
GX120K1QX2 air-cooled, 4-stroke

gasoline engine

or a 1/2

HP electric motor. Refer to Table 2 to for specific engine or
electric motor data information.

Electrical

If mixer is equipped with an

electric motor, make sure that

the power being supplied to the motor corresponds to the
voltage rating label on the motor. Supplying the wrong voltage
to the electric motor will cause severe electrical damage to
the motor.

Always make sure the

OFF/ON switch on the electric motor

is in the

OFF position before applying power.

It is

strongly recommended when inserting the mixer's

power cord into a receptacle, that a G.F.C.I. (

Ground Fault

Current Interrupter) receptacle be used (115 VAC
applications).

Extension Cables

The extension cable should be a 3-wire configuration that
includes a ground wire that conforms to UL code. The wire
cross section must be a minimum of 2.5 mm

2

. Choose an

extension cord of adequate current carrying capacity as ref-
erenced in Table 5. Remember

distance affects the wire

size of the extension cable.

Ensure that the extension cable is carefully laid out avoid-
ing

wet areas, sharp edges and locations where vehicles

might run over it. Avoid allowing the extension cable to be
trapped underneath the mixer.

Unroll the extension cable fully or it will overheat and could
catch fire. Make sure that all extension cable connections
are dry and safe. Replace any defective or badly worn ex-
tension cable immediately.

Hardware

Check all hardware on the mixer before starting. Periodically
inspect all hardware. Loose hardware can contribute to early
component failure and poor performance. Use Table 3 as general
guideline when the torqueing of mixer hardware is required.
Remember to keep all mixer hardware components tight.

Engine Maintenance

For basic engine maintenance, refer to the engine maintenance
section in this manual. For a more detailed engine maintenance,
refer to the

Honda

Engine Owner's manual furnished with the

engine.
