NOTE! Risk of damage! Damage to the motor can occur if water penetrates into the motor unit. Do not tap on the mixing drum with hard objects (hammer, shovel, etc.). A dented mixing drum impairs the mixing process and can be more di󰀩cult to clean. - Clean the product with a brush or a scraper. - Do not immerse the product in water or other liquids and do not spray the motor unit with a high-pressure cleaner. We recommend that you thoroughly clean the inside and outside of the device directly after every use. Nev- er remove dirt with a hammer, shovel or the like. After each use of the concrete mixer:

1. Clean the drum (1) with water and remove cement

and mortar crusts with a brush or a scraper.

2. To clean the inside of the drum, circulate a few

shovels of gravel with water.

11. Electrical connection

The electrical motor installed is connected and ready for operation. The connection complies with the appli- cable VDE and DIN provisions. The customer's mains connection as well as the ex- tension cable used must also comply with these reg- ulations.

11.1 Damaged electrical connection cables

The insulation on electrical connection cables is often damaged. This may have the following causes:

• Pressure points, where connection cables are passed through windows or doors.

• Kinks where the connection cable has been improp- erly xed or routed.

• Places where the connection cables have been cut due to being driven over.

• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the wall outlet.

• Cracks due to the insulation ageing. Such damaged electrical connection cables must not be used and are life-threatening due to the insulation damage. Check the electrical connection cables for damage regularly. Ensure that the connection cables are dis- connected from electrical power when checking for damage. Electrical connection cables must comply with the ap- plicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connection cables with the designation H07RN. The printing of the type designation on the connection cable is mandatory. For single-phase AC motors, we recommend a fuse rating of C 16A or K 16A for machines with a high start- ing current (from 3000 watts)!

m WARNING! Danger of injury! The product can start unexpectedly and cause injuries. - Switch o󰀨 the motor before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work. - Disconnect the mains plug before carrying out any cleaning work.www.scheppach.com
