SILICOSIS/RESPIRATORY WARNINGS
WARNING
SILICOSIS WARNINGRESPIRATORY 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
APPLICATION
The MQ Whiteman WM63 Series mixers (drum capacity
of 6.3 cu. ft./178 liters) are shipped completely assembled
and have been factory tested and are ready for use.
This mixer is only intended for the production of plaster and
mortar. The mixer must be used for its intended purpose
and is not suitable for the mixing of flammable or explosive
substances. The mixer must not be used in an explosive
atmosphere. This mixer has a batch capacity between 2-1/2
and 3-1/2 bags.
POWER PLANTS
The WM63 Series mixer can be equipped with either a
Honda GX160 or GX240 air-cooled, 4-stroke gasoline
engine. In addition this mixer is also available with a 1.5
HP electric motor with that can be configured for either
115 or 230 VAC operation by means of a voltage selector
switch. Refer to Table 2 for specific engine or electric motor
information.
ELECTRICAL
If mixer is equipped with an electric motor, make sure that
the power being supplied to the motor corresponds to the
voltage rating label on the motor. Supplying the wrong
voltage to the electric motor will cause severe electrical
damage to the motor.
Ensure that the extension cable is carefully laid out avoiding
wet areas, sharp edges and locations where vehicles might
run over it. Avoid allowing the extension cable to be trapped
underneath the mixer.
Unroll the extension cable fully or it will overheat and could
catch fire. Make sure that all extension cable connections
are dry and safe. Replace any defective or badly worn
extension cable immediately.
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
Table 4 as a general guideline when torqueing of mixer
hardware is required. Remember to keep all mixer hardware
components tight.

TIRES/WHEELS/LUG NUTS
Tires and wheels are a very impor tant and critical
components of the trailer. When specifying or replacing
the trailer wheels it is important the wheels, tires, and axle
are properly matched.
WARNING
DO NOT attempt to repair or modify a wheel.
DO NOT install an inter-tube to correct a leak
through the rim. If the rim is cracked, the air
pressure in the inter-tube may cause pieces
of the rim to explode (break-off) with great force and can
cause serious eye or bodily injury.
Tires Wear/Inflation
Tire inflation pressure is the most important factor in tire
life. Pressure should be checked cold before operation.
DO NOT bleed air from tires when they are hot. Check
inflation pressure weekly during use to insure the maximum
tire life and tread wear.
WARNING
ALWAYS wear safety glasses when removing
or installing force fitted parts. Failure to
comply may result in serious injury.
Table 9 (Tire Wear Troubleshooting) will help pinpoint the
causes and solutions of tire wear problems.
