Dumping the Drum
Note: When dumping a batch of material, leave the engine
running so that the rotating drum helps dump the material.
1. Align a wheelbarrow or similar container of adequate
capacity in the path of the drum opening.
2. While the drum is turning, firmly grasp the handwheel
with one hand.
3. Using your other hand, pull upwards on the drum-tilt
brake handle to release the brake.
4. Use 2 hands to slowly turn the handwheel, allowing
the drum to tilt in the desired direction and dump the
desired amount of material.
5. Turn the handwheel in the opposite direction to return
the drum into an upright position.
6. Push down on the drum-tilt brake to lock the drum
into position, avoiding accidental discharging of
concrete mix.
7. After dumping a batch of material, clean the drum;
refer to Cleaning the Drum (page 26).
Note: This step will clean the paddles and drum
between batches and prevent dried material from
forming and contaminating the next batch of material.
Cleaning the Drum
Service Interval: After each use
Important: Do not strike on the drum with a shovel,
hammer, or any other device to loosen any accumulated
dried materials.
1. While the machine is running, use the handwheel to
tilt the drum slightly.
2. Engage the drum-tilt brake to prevent the drum from
tilting further and discharging the water.
3. As the drum is rotating, spray it thoroughly with water
before the material dries.
4. Allow the drum to rotate and tumble the loose material
and water, further loosening the rest of the material.
5. Continue to spray the drum with water to remove all of
the material from the drum and mixing paddles.
6. When all of the material has been removed from the
surfaces of the drum and mixing paddles, disengage the
drum-tilt brake and use the handwheel to tilt the drum
and dump the water from the drum.
7. If some material still remains in the drum, spray the
drum with water while it is tilted downward, allowing
the water and material to run out.
