• Do not touch moving parts while mixer is operating.
Do not wear loose-fitting clothes or jewelry around
an operating mixer. Keep all hands, feet, clothes,
neckties, necklaces and other objects clear
of moving parts.
• Never move the unit without a suitable lifting device.
• Have a qualified individual bring power to your unit.
• Always ground the unit. Never use an extension
cord.
• Never run the unit in open air.
• Never adjust the speed without the unit running.
• Always lockout the power when working on the unit.
Electric Motor Safety:
Motors should be installed, protected and fused in
accordance with latest issue of National Electrical Code,
NEMA Standard Publication No. MG 2 and local codes.
Frames and accessories of motors should be grounded
in accordance with National Electrical Code (NEC) Article
430. For general information on grounding refer to NEC
Article 250.
Not all rotating parts are guarded. Keep hands and clothing
away from moving parts.
Trained, qualified personnel should make electrical repairs
and non-standard connections.
If environment has hazardous combustible fumes present,
use only explosion-proof electric motors.
Air Motor Safety:
The air motor is designed to be driven by compressed
air and under no circumstances be driven with any other
gases. Fluids, particles, solids or any substance mixed
with air, particularly combustible substances likely to cause
explosions, must not drive air motor.
• Do not drive with flammable or explosive gases or
operate unit in an atmosphere containing them.
• Air motor is designed for air only. Do not allow
corrosive gases or particulate material to
enter motor. Water vapor, oil-based
contaminants, or other liquids must
be filtered out.
Air Motor Safety: (continued)
• Ambient temperature should not exceed 250°F.
• Beware of any exposed and/or movable parts. Proper
guards should be in place to prevent personal and/or
property damage.
• Solid or liquid material exiting unit can cause eye or skin
damage. Keep away from air stream.
• Always disconnect air supply before servicing.
• Do not allow air motor to “run free” at high speeds with no
loads. Excessive internal heat build-up, loss of internal
clearances and rapid motor damage will result.
• Some models may exceed 85dB(A) sound level.
Hearing protection should be worn when in close
proximity to these models.
