3. SAFETY MEASURES
The IMER mixer is designed to operate on construction sites
and is not equipped with its own lighting; the work site must be
sufficiently illuminated (min. 500 lux).
- The IMER mixer will only run if all its safety devices are in
place and in perfect condition.
- If there is a fault in the power supply, the mixer will not start.
- The electrical power supply cables on the site must be laid in
such a way that they cannot be damaged.
- The power supply cables must be laid in such a way as to
prevent water from entering the connectors.

- Repairs to the electrical systems must be carried out by
specialised personnel only. Never start up the mixer during
maintenance and repair operations.
- Accident-prevention regulations and safety instructions must
be observed in the work area.
The machine must not be used in closed or
underground environments or where there is a risk of fire
or explosion.
4. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The IMER mixer meets the requirements of the standard EN
60204-1 and is equipped with a safety system that prevents
the machine from re-starting automatically following a power
outage.
The machine is equipped with an electrical safety device that
prevents it from operating when the drum safety guard is open.
5. MECHANICAL SAFETY
The hazardous points on the IMER mixer are protected by
means of safety devices, which must remain fitted at all times
and kept in perfect condition – as, for instance, the drive belt
guard. The drum is fitted with a guard which enables mix
components to be loaded into it while preventing access to the
mixing zone.
The machine is also equipped with a guard on its discharge
outlet to prevent access to the mixing zone.
6. TRANSPORT
CAUTION! Always unplug the mixer from the power
supply before moving it.
- The mixer can be moved manually using the handles, as
indicated in Fig. 3.
- To hoist the mixer, attach the lifting rope with 4 attachment
points to the lifting eyes, as shown in Fig. 4.
7. ELECTRICAL MAINS CONNECTION
- Ensure that a residual current device and thermal-magnetic
circuit breaker are installed on the electrical power supply line.
8. INSTALLATION
- Remove the mixer from its packaging and position it upright,
making sure it is not tilted at an angle greater than 5°(fig.1).
- Make sure the mixer is positioned on stable ground.
9. OPERATION
- Do not allow anyone else to remain within a radius 1.5
metres of the machine during operation.
- Do not use the machine in areas where there is a risk of
fire/explosion.
Check that the safety devices are in place and in good
working order.
- Check that the power supply voltage corresponds with that
indicated on the machine data plate.
- Start the motor by the pressing the start button on the control
panel.
CAUTION! Check that the machine stops when the
drum safety guard is lifted.
- At this point, you can start work, pouring water, cement and
other materials required for the mix through the drum safety
guard.
- The drum safety guard is equipped with bag breaker blades
to facilitate the use of premixed materials.
- When the mix is ready, place a suitable container under the
discharge outlet and, with the paddles still rotating, open the
outlet by way of the lever (see Fig. 5). Push the lever all the
way from position A to position B.
Do not start the machine when it is fully loaded.
