H8172 Cement Mixer -5-
Additional Safety for Cement Mixers
5. ENTANGLEMENT. The spinning drum and
engaging gears present an entang
lement
hazard. When using the cement mixer, tie
back long ha
ir, roll up long sleeves, and
remove loose clothing or jewelry to reduce
the risk of an entanglement injury.
6. SERVICE & ADJUSTMENTS. Like all
machines, this machine presents a risk of
injury if it is serviced or adjusted while it
is connected to power. Disconnect power
before doing any service, maintenance, or
adjustments to reduce the risk of acciden
-
tal injury.
7. WATER VS. ELECTRIC COMPONENTS.
The electric components are designed to
resist accidental exposure to water, but
they are not waterproof. Avoid intentionally
getting the motor and switch wet to reduce
the risk of shock or equipment damage.
If the internal parts of these components
do get wet, immediately disconnect power
and allow the parts to completely dry
before reconnecting the mixer to the power
supply.
1. HAZARDOUS DUST. All cement, mortar,
grout, and silicate dusts are hazardous
to respiratory systems.
Protect yourself
and any bystanders by always wearing a
respirator approved to guard against these
kinds of dusts.
2. PINCH/CRUSHING HAZARD AREA. The
drum has a noticeable ring of gear teeth
around the circumference. The area where
these teeth meet the driving gear is a
severe pinch hazard. Keep hands, fingers,
and all body parts away from these gear
teeth and the driving gear to avoid injury
from this hazard. DO NOT operate the
mixer with the gear cover/guard removed!
3. CHILDREN. Never allow children to play
on, in, or with the cement mixer.
4. STORAGE. Store the cement mixer with
the drum in the down position and discon
-
nected from power to reduce the risk of
children climbing inside and injuring them
-
selves.

Every shop environment is different. Always
consider safety first, as it applies to your
individual working conditions. Use this and
other machinery with caution and respect.
Failure to do so could result in serious per-
sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor
work results.
Like all machinery there is potential danger
when operating this machine. Accidents are
frequently caused by lack of familiarity or
failure to pay attention. Use this machine
with respect and caution to lessen the pos
-
sibility of operator injury. If normal safety
precautions are overlooked or ignored, seri
-
ous personal injury may occur.
