1-SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS ARE SUGGESTED TO HELP
PREVENT ACCIDENTS. A CAREFUL OPERATOR IS THE BEST
OPERATOR. MOST ACCIDENTS CAN BE AVOIDED BY OBSERVING
CERTAIN PRECAUTIONS. READ AND TAKE THE FOLLOWING
PRECAUTIONS BEFORE OPERATING THIS EQUIPMENT TO HELP
PREVENT ACCIDENTS. EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE OPERATED ONLY BY
THOSE WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE AND INSTRUCTED TO DO SO.
§ Read all mixer and electric motor/engine instructions before operation.
§ Use a grounded, three wire plug-in for all mixers using an electric motor or an
electric starting engine.
§ Do not use mixer in standing water if powered by an electric motor or an electric
starting engine.
§ Do not over-fill the mixer. There should not be any liquid running out of the mixer
drum.
§ Know how to stop the motor/engine instantly.
§ Keep hands and feet away from all moving parts.
§ If you are unfamiliar with the mixer, test run the empty mixer prior to actual use.
§ Never charge or fill unit prior to starting, as the over-load initially encountered could
damage the motor/engine.
§ Stop motor/engine whenever you leave or clean the unit. Disconnect power cord on
electric motor.
§ Never operate mixer without guards being properly positioned and secure.
§ Avoid spilling gasoline. Never fill tank while the engine is running or while you are
smoking.
§ Open doors if engine is running in an enclosed area. Exhaust fumes are dangerous.
§ Store gasoline in safe container. Store the container in a cool, dry place. Do not
keep in the house or near heating appliances.
§ Never reach into drum while mixer is running.
§ Keep mixer in good operating condition. Loose or damaged parts are dangerous and
should be tightened or replaced before operating.
§ Keep bystanders, especially children, away from mixer while operating.

DRUM SPEED
The mixer drum should revolve between 20 and 25 R.P.M.’s for best results in mixing
concrete. To obtain this speed using a 1725/1800 R.P.M. electric motor, use a 2” diameter
“A” section V-pulley.
If using a 6 to 1 speed reduction 3 H.P. gasoline engine, use a 6 ¼” diameter “A” section Vpulley.
GETTING READY FOR MIXING
Lay out forms for your concrete floor, patio, driveway, sidewalk, etc.
The quality of concrete is directly related to the quality of the cement paste. The quality of
the paste, in turn, is directly related to the amount of water mixed with the cement. For a
given amount of cement, as the amount of mixing water is reduced, the strength of the paste
increases, making the concrete stronger and more durable.
The proportions by weight given in Table 1 can be used as a starting point to make 1 cu. Ft.
(0.028 m3) of strong, durable concrete. The proportions given in Table 2 are volumetric; 1
bag of cement is equal to 1 cu. ft. (0.28 m3) and weighs 94 lbs.
(42.6 kg). The Canadian bag of cement has a net mass of 40 kg.
The proportions are only a guide and may need adjustments to give a workable mix with
locally available aggregates.
Table 1. Proportions by Weight to Make 1 Cu. Ft. of Concrete
Cement Sand aggregate Water Cement Sand aggregate Water
*If crushed stone is used, decrease coarse aggregate by 3 lbs and increase sand by 3 lbs.
Metric conversion: 1 lb = 0.121 kg 10 lbs = 4.54 kg
1 in. = 25mm
Table 2. Proportions by Volume*
Cement Sand aggregate Water Cement Sand aggregate Water
*The combined volume is approximately 2/3 of the sum of the original bulk volumes.
