chemicals know to cause cancer, birth
defects and other reproductive harm.
Someexamples ofthesechemicals are:
Lead from lead-based paints
Crystalline silica from bricks
Cement and other masonry products
Arsenic and chromium from chemically
treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this
type of work. To reduce your exposure
to these chemicals: work in a
well-ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as
dust masks that are specially designed
to filter out microscopic particles.

SILICOSIS/RESPIRATORY WARNINGS
WARNING
SILICOSIS WARNING RESPIRATORY HAZARDS
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and
other materials with silica in their composition may give
off dust or mists containing crystalline silica. Silica is a
basic component of sand, quartz, brick clay, granite and
numerous other minerals and rocks. Repeated and/or
substantial inhalation of airborne crystalline silica can
cause serious or fatal respiratory diseases, including
silicosis. In addition, California and some other
authorities have listed respirable crystalline silica as a
substance known to cause cancer. When cutting such
materials, always follow the respiratory precautions
mentioned above.
WARNING
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and
other materials can generate dust, mists and fumes
containing chemicals known to cause serious or fatal
injury or illness, such as respiratory disease, cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. If you are
unfamiliar with the risks associated with the particular
process and/or material being cut or the composition of
the tool being used, review the material safety data
sheet and/or consult your employer, the material
manufacturer/supplier, governmental agencies such as
OSHA and NIOSH and other sources on hazardous
materials. California and some other authorities, for
instance, have published lists of substances known to
cause cancer, reproductive toxicity, or other harmful
effects.
Control dust, mist and fumes at the source where
possible. In this regard use good work practices and
follow the recommendations of the manufacturers or
suppliers, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupational and trade
associations. Water should be used for dust
suppression when wet cutting is feasible. When the
hazards from inhalation of dust, mists and fumes cannot
be eliminated, the operator and any bystanders should
always wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for
the materials being used.

GENERAL INFORMATION
GENERAL
The MQ Model WM45HCE plaster and mortar mixer is
shipped completely assembled and has been factory tested.
The drum batch capacity of this mixers is between 1.5 and
2.5 bags. With proper care it will give continuous service
year after year.
This mixer is powered by a Honda GX160 gasoline engine.
The shaft of the engine is attached to a main gear via a
pinion gear. As the main gear rotates it causes the paddle
shaft to rotate.
Before Starting
Before starting the engine, read the engine owner's manual
and thoroughly understand the safety information.
Check the items listed below:
Oil Levels
Be sure to check the oil levels in the engine and engine
reduction unit before starting the unit (gasoline model only).
Engine Care
For care and operation of the Honda engine, refer to the
maintenance procedures in this manual and the engine
manufacturer’s operating instructions furnished with the
engine. We recommend draining and refilling the engine
crankcase at least every thirty hours of operation. Check
the engine oil level daily.
Hardware
Check all hardware on the mixer before starting. Periodically
inspect all hardware. Loose hardware can contribute to
early component failure and poor performance. Use the
torque chart below as a general guideline and keep all
hardware tight:
