The model 1200 Mixer is heavy-duty and capable of mixing materials to an ideal consistency in only minutes�
It is suitable for all plaster, mortar, cementitious slurries, reproong materials, accoustic, roong coatings,
gypsum mixes with sand, clay, vermiculite, perlite, magnesite, low and high viscosity liquids�
CLUTCH

engaging the clutch�
MIXING
Add all except 1-1/2 gallons of water� Engage the clutch to start rotating the paddles� Add all of the cement and
let it mix into a soft, lump free, slurry� Gradually add the aggregate at about 1 cubic foot every 15 seconds� Add
the remaining water desired to get the consistency desired�
CLEAN UP
Keep the mixer as clean as possible as a clean and well maintained machine will give maximum years of
service�
SEALS AND BEARINGS
Lubricate the bearings and shaft seals daily� Fill with waterproof grease until the grease starts to squeeze
to the seals and retaining rings� This is often audible as pockets of air pop through the seals and retaining
rings� Do not try to force grease through the seals as doing so can cause the seals to fail� Improper
maintenance will shorten the life of the seals, bearings, and paddle shaft�
