Electrical Safety; Motor Protection - ATIKA Compact 100 Mode D'emploi

− checking connecting lines, whether these are knotted or
damaged
− leaving unattended (even during short interruptions)
• Check the machine for possible damage:
− Before further use of the machine the safety devices must
be checked carefully for their proper and intended function.
− Check whether movable parts function perfectly and do not
stick or whether parts are damaged. All parts must be
correctly installed and fulfil all conditions to ensure perfect
operation of the machine.
− Damaged safety devices and parts must be properly
repaired or exchanged by a recognized, specialist
workshop; insofar as nothing else is stated in the
instructions for use.
− Damaged or illegible safety labels have to be replaced.
• Store unused equipment in a dry, locked place out of the reach
of children.
Mixers that are not shockproof
(Protection Class I)
• Do not connect up to household sockets.
• Only connect up by means of a special
supply point (for example, a building site
main cabinet with a fault-current circuit breaker 30 mA release
current).

Electrical safety

Danger to life and limb if not observed!
• Design of the connection cable according to IEC 60245 (H 07
RN-F) with a core cross-profile section of at least
 3 x 1.5 mm for cable lengths up to 25m
2
 3 x 2.5 mm for cable lengths over 25m

• Use only connecting attachments with a rubber plug device
for severe requirements
spraying water.
• Long and thin connection lines result in a potential drop. The
motor does not reach any longer its maximal power; the
function of the device is reduced.
• Unwind the cable completely when using a cable drum.
• Do not use the power cords for purposes they are not intended
for. Protect the cable against heat, oil and sharp edges. Do jerk
on the power cable when pulling the plug from the socket.
• Check connecting attachments for defects or ageing before
using them.
• Never use defective connecting attachments.
• When laying the connecting attachments, be sure that they do
get crushed or bent, and that the plug-and-socket connection
does not get wet.
• Do not use any provisional electrical connections.
• Never bridge over protective devices or put them out of
operation.
• Only hook up the machine by means of a
fault-current circuit breacker: 30 mA!
A licensed professional electrician must make all electrical
connections and repairs, and observe local regulations in doing
so, especially those regarding protective measures.
The manufacturer or a company designated by the
manufacturer must attend to the repair of all electrical parts on the
machine.

that is protected against
Use only original spare. Accidents can arise for the user
through the use of other spare parts. The manufacturer is not
liable for any damage or injury resulting from such action.
Start-up
Observe all safety instructions.
Setting up the machine
• Set up the machine on a solid, level base.
• Keep the machine from sinking into the
ground or floor.
Adhere to accident prevention regulations (danger of
tipping).
• When setting up the machine, make sure that the mixing drum
can be emptied without obstruction.
Switching on and off
Be sure that
all protective devices are on the mixer and properly mounted.
-
all safety instructions are adhered to.
-
• Switch the motor on and off only at the switch.
• In the event of a power failure, the machine will switch off
automatically. Press the switch again to restart the machine.

Motor protection

The motor is equipped with a thermostat. The thermostat switches
the motor off automatically in the event of overload (overheating).
The machine can be restarted after a cooling-off period.
Mixing
• Only use mixer for applications listed under "Correct use".
• Check the stability of the mixer.
• Only fill or empty the mixing drum while the motor is running.
• Observe the nominal filling volume!
• An electrical safety shutdown prevents the mixer operating
while the safety grid is open. Check functionality of safety
shutdown before commissioning.
Mixture production:
1. Close safety grid.
2. Switch on mixer.
3. Fill with water and aggregate (sand, ...).
4. Add binding agent (cement, lime, ...).
5. Repeat points 3 and 4 until required mixture ratio has been
achieved.
6. Blend mixture well.
Have a professional advise you regarding the composition
and quality of the material being mixed.
Prepared (commercially available) mixture production:
Observe mixing ratio and details given by manufacturer on
packaging.
1. Close safety grid.
2. Switch on mixer.
3. Fill with required volume of water.
4. There is a sack opener on the safety grid which is used to tear
open the packed mixture and filling the drum.
5. Blend mixture well.
