Tool Assembly

Take the protective grid, stand with bucket, protective shield, draw bar, stirrer basket and accessories plastic bag out of the cardboard box.

Fix the protective grid on the bucket and place the draw bar.
Fix the three components by means of the fixing bolt.
Secure the bolt by means of the split pin.
Fix the protector by means of the 6 Philips screws M5 x 10 and washers.
Fix the tool tightly to the stand by means of the 4 Allen screws M8 x 20 and the appropriate locking rings.
Put down the tool arm and insert the stirrer basket. Place the bucket into the lower frame in such a way that one of its four handles snaps into the holder provided for that. So you avoid unintended turning of the bucket during the mixing process.

Readjustment of the machine holder

The Automix 1801 is preset at the factory to the optimal position of the stirring rods in the bucket.
This position can be readjusted as follows:

Loosen the hexagon nut with a jaw wrench size 17. Adjust the hexagon nut so that the stirring rod runs as far as possible parallel to the border of the bucket, but does not contact this. Hold the screw in this position by means of the jaw wrench and retighten the nut. Check the correct position.

Electrical Connection

Prior to putting the tool into operation, check the mains voltage for conformity with the requirements of the tool’s nameplate. Voltage variations between + 6 % and – 10 % are permissible. The Automix 1801 tool was designed according to protection class II. Use only extension cords with a sufficient cable cross section (min. 2.5 mm²). Too small a cross section may result in loss of power and overheating of tool and cable.

Tool Protection

Inadequate use may result in damages.

Therefore, it is strictly required to observe the following instructions:

Use only stirring baskets recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not stress the tool to such a extend that it stops by itself.
In order to protect user and motor, the Automix is equipped with a mechanical overload protection.
In case of sudden blocking of the stirring rod, the mixing spindle is mechanically disengaged from the motor by means of a clutch.
In order to maintain the efficiency, the clutch should slide 2 seconds max. through. In case of considerable wear, it has to be replaced by an authorised service workshop.

Switching on and off

The tool may be started only with put-up and locked tool arm. After having the tool switched off, the locking may be opened and the tool arm put down only after the stirrer basket has stopped.

Use

Insert the motor head with the stirrer basket into the bucket and lock it by turning the knurled screw in the direction of the arrow. For insert the stirrer basket into the bucket, please see that the stirrer is positioned across the tool arm.

Prepare the mix as follows:

Always start the tool without load.
Depending on the material to be processed, proceed as follows:

Floor and Wall Tile Adhesives
Carefully read the instructions on the material bag. To prepare the desired quantity of adhesive, fill the required quantity of water into the bucket. Switch the tool on. Add the content of the first bag (25 kg) with a feed of approx. 10 kg/min through the protective grid into the bucket. Continue to do so in an uninterrupted and regular way with the second bag (25 kg). So you can avoid clumping of the mix. If required, allow the adhesive to stand for 5 to 10 min, and then mix again for some minutes.

Cement
The stirrer is well suited to mix ready-mixed mortar, plaster and the like. Automix is not designed to mix concrete or mortar with medium-size gravel and admixtures.
To prepare ready-mixed mortar or plaster, process as described in section ‘Floor and Wall Tile Adhesives’ above. Since mortar is heavily hygroscopic, in view of excessive mix hardening it is necessary to carefully observe the quantities of adhesive, cement or additives for the desired mix.

Epoxy Resins
To process epoxy resins, it is necessary to check the viscosity and the specific weight of the mix to be prepared in order to avoid overload of the Automix tool.
Fill the quantities of resin, hardener and powder as advised by the producer into the bucket. Carefully mix the components in order to avoid formation of bubbles or clumps

Paints
Fill the paint into the bucket and add the quantity of water or admixtures required for the solution.

IMPORTANT!

The use of chemicals or solvents may impair the properties of the bucket. Before using the Automix tool, check the products to be mixed for compliance with the tool manufacturer’s requirements.

Removal of the Bucket

Switch the tool off and wait until the stirrer basket has stopped. Open the locking of the tool arm. Move the tool arm out of the bucket. Lift the bucket out of the holder of the stand.

Care and Maintenance

Repairs may be executed only by appropriately qualified and experienced personnel. After every repair the machine has to be inspected by an electric specialist. Due to its design, the machine needs a minimum of care and maintenance. However, the following points always have to be observed:

Always keep the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
During work, please pay attention that no particles get inside the machine.
In case of failure, a repair has to be carried out by an authorised service workshop.

Environmental Protection

Raw material recycling instead of waste disposal

To avoid damages on transportation, the power tool has to be delivered in a sturdy packing. The packing as well as the tool and its accessories are made of recyclable materials which makes it possible to remove environmental friendly und differentiated because of available collection facilities.

Only for EU countries
Do not dispose of electric tools together with household waste material In observance of the European Directive 2012/19/EC on waste electrical and electronic equipment and its implementation in accordance with national law, electric tools that have reached the end of their life must be collected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling facility.

Noise Emission / Vibration

The indication of noise emission is measured according to DIN 45 635, part 21. The level of acoustic pressure on the work place could exceed 85 dB (A); in this case protection measures must be taken.

Wear ear protectors!

The typical hand-arm vibration is below 2.5 m/s².
Measured values determined according to EN 60 745.

The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
