HOW TO USE THE MIXER
Before setting up, repair or maintenance of the
appliance you must always turn off the operating switch
and pull out the mains plug.
Before Initial Operation
Check if the rated frequency of the mains supply
corresponds to the details of the type place.
Before using the tool, read the instruction book
carefully.
Mixer Assembly (Fig. 1):
First screw mixer part (6a) together with mixer part (6b).
Screw the mixer (6) into the mixer holder (5) when fully
assembled. Use the two spanners to do this. Use one of
the spanners (a) to hold the mixer holder (5) in place and
then use the second spanner (b) to tighten up the mixer
(6). Proceed in the reverse sequence to undo the mixer.
Paddle design may vary to illustration shown.

low speeds. The gear switch position should only be
changed when the unit is stopped, in order to prevent
the gearing from being damaged.
Working With the Paint and Mortar
Mixer
The mains plug must be disconnected before the
mixing tool is changed.
The unit should be run at low speed before it is
immersed in or removed from the mixture. The speed
should only be increased to maximum after it has been
fully immersed in the mixture, in order to ensure that
motor is kept as cool as possible. The machine must
be moved around inside the mixing vessel during the
mixing process. Continue the mixing process until all of
the mixing components have been processed.
Always clean the mixer after you have nished using it.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, be attentive and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a
respiratory mask, anti-slip safety shoes, hard hat, and
hearing protection, used as appropriate, will reduce
personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source and/
or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or
energizing power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or spanner before turning
the power tool on. A spanner or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
