The Stand

With a splint pin inserted into the inner holes in each stub axle, place a flat washer, then a wheel followed by another flat washer. Insert another split pin into the axle holes outside each flat washer. Bend each side of the pins outward so they do not fall out.

Mounting support leg

With the frame lying o ist side, attach the support leg as shown. Insert 2 M8x70 hex bolts through the holes from one side, then flat washers, lock waschers and nuts from the other side. Also screw a M8x55 hex bolt with lock and flat washers to the nut on the frame. Tighten down.

The mounting frame on the wheel

Mounting frame on

Turn the frame over and attach the axle bracket with wheels in the same manner.

Mounting the drum (lower part) on the frame

Mounting the drum Slide the bearing block on the shaft. Hold it in place with ø42 spiral ring. Carefully, set the bottom drum with support arm onto the side supports of the stand as shown, so that the bearing blocks slot into the channels provided by the side support. The larger diameter shaft should be at the leg end of the stand.

Mounting the mixer

Mount the mixing blades inside the bottom drum loosely as shown- Two holes are provided at the base of the drum into which a M8x16 bolt may be inserted from the outside. A leather washer, flat washer, lock washer and a nut should be threaded on loosely on the inside. The leather washer should be placed under the blade down against the drum.

Mounting the drum (upper part) on the frame

Position the upper drum on bottom drum over the rim, making sure the mounting holes align in both as well as the labeled arrows. Screw a M8x16 hex bolt with lock and flat washers into each threaded hole in the rim/ring gear. Make sure the tightening process is carried out progressively. Secure the mixing blades to the upper drum by inserting two M8x16 cross headed screws from the outside through the holes in the drum. A Leather washer should be positioned inside between the drum and blade. Secure the mixing blade on the inside using a flat washer, spring washer and nut. Finally, ensure top and bottom mixing blade mountings are tight.

Mounting the grating disc

Slide the locking plate over the large diameter shaft at the leg end of the frame with the rim facing inwards as shown. Secure with two M8x25 bolts, each with a nut, lock and flat washers.

Mounting the swiveling wheel

The spring is clamped in its holder by a U shaped plate for easier assembly. Slide the wheel over the larger ø shaft until the holes in the bracket line up with the hole drilled. Insert a M10x60 hex bolt and screw on a nut with flat and lock washers from the other side. Screw the nut up against the bracket firmly, but not so tightly so as to prevent the wheel from pivoting about the bolt. Free the spring by removing the U shaped plate. Note: The wheel must be allowed to pivot about the bolt so that the lugs on the bracket can be engaged or disengaged from the slots in the locking plate.

Mounting motor housing

Lining up the keyways, slide the transmission case over the pinion shaft. Secure the case to the frame with four M8 nuts.

Power supply

Repair jobs shall be performed by respectively trained professionals only!

Maintenance plan

After each work shift:

Clean the machine, especially the drum

After 25 hours of operation

Grease the sprocket
Check tension of the v-belt

V- Belt adjusting

Remove the cover of the motor housing, and check the belt tension (on pressing the belt with the finger, it should yield by approx. 5mm.)
Belts are worn and tear parts that must be replaced after a certain period. If necessary, detach the screws on the motor, replace the belt, adjust the correct tension and tighten the screws again. Reinstall the motor cover.

Transport

Set the filling opening downwards.
Lift the machine at the transport handles and move the machine
During transportation by motor vehicle, remove the screws and fold the stands. Lock the mixer with a strap to prevent displacement
