1.1.4 Grading of the warning information

There is an ever-present risk of accident or fatalities to persons working on the plant. If the various
warning information in the instruction manual are observed, hazardous situations which arise
during the carrying out of a task can be much more readily identified and occupational accidents
better prevented.
This applies particularly to staff who carry out setup and maintenance tasks and who only work on
the plant occasionally.
Observation of the warning information also reduces the risk of damage to the plant.
Tasks carried out during operation and maintenance, for which hazards to persons or damage to
material property may be posed, are characterised in this instruction manual with a note pertaining
to safety.
The warning information is graded into several classes depending on the hazard level and the seri-
ousness of potential injury.

4 General safety instructions
4.1 Basic notes on work safety
4.1.1 Organisational measures

Always keep the operating instructions handy at the operating location of the plant. In addition to
the operating instructions, all generally applicable legal and other binding regulations for accident
prevention and environmental protection are to be observed and instructed.
Such obligations can also involve, e.g., the handling of hazardous substances, the provision and
wearing of personal protective equipment, and road traffic regulations.
Personnel instructed to operate the plant must have read the operating instructions, in particular
the chapters “General safety instructions” and “Device-specific notes”. It is too late to do this after
work begins. This especially applies to personnel working only occasionally on the plant, e.g.,
during set-up or maintenance work.
Inspect the work-related safety aspects and hazards of all personnel periodically, in accordance
with the operating instructions.
If any safety-related changes need to be made to the plant or its operational performance, shut
down the plant and inform the relevant position/person of the fault.
Do not carry out any modifications or upgrades or fit anything to the plant which could jeopardise
safety without the approval of the manufacturer. This also applies to the installation and fitting of
safety devices and safety valves, as well as the welding of load-bearing parts.
Replacement parts must comply with the technical requirements of the manufacturer. This is
always assured with original replacement parts.
Workshop equipment appropriate to the job is absolutely necessary when carrying out mainte-
nance work.
4.1.2 Safety during normal operation

Take measures to ensure that the plant is only operated in a safe and fully operational condition.
LMT/820295005/160216/2016-02-17/en
Only operate the plant when all protective and safety-related equipment is available and fully
operational, e.g., detachable protective equipment, emergency stop equipment, sound-proofing
and suction devices.
Should there be any malfunctions, shut down and secure the concrete mixing plant. Rectify the
faults.
4.1.3 Safety during maintenance and repair

Observe the activation and deactivation operations in accordance with the operating instructions
and notes on maintenance when carrying out all work involving the operation, production adjust-
ment, modification and settings of the plant and its safety-related equipment, as well as inspection,
maintenance and repair work.
DW 1.25-6.0 / 820294905 27
General safety instructions Operator's manual
Basic notes on work safety
Where required, ensure that the maintenance area is adequately secured.

If the plant is shut down completely during maintenance and repair work, secure it against being
restarted unexpectedly:
– Lock central command device and remove key
– Display a warning sign on the main switch.
When carrying out overhead installation works, use the climbing aids and work platforms provided;
they meet the required safety standards. Do not use plant parts as climbing aids. When carrying
out maintenance work at a great height, wear fall protection devices.
Keep all handles, steps, railings, platforms and ladders free from dirt, snow and ice.
Before starting any maintenance or repair work, clean the plant and in particular its connections
and screw connections to ensure they are free from oil, fuel or cleaning fluids. Do not use any
aggressive cleaning agents. Use a lint-free cleaning cloth. Before cleaning the plant with water,
steam jet (high pressure cleaner) or other cleaning agents, cover or seal all openings to ensure that
no water, steam or cleaning fluid which could jeopardise the safety or functionality of the plant can
get in. This is especially dangerous to electric motors and switch cabinets.
After cleaning, remove the covers completely from the openings.
After cleaning, inspect all fuel, motor oil and hydraulic oil pipes for leaks, loose connections, abra-
sions and damage. Rectify any detected defects immediately.
Always re-tighten loosened screw connections during maintenance and repair work.
If it is necessary to dismantle the safety devices during set-up, maintenance or repair work, the
safety devices must be re-installed and inspected on completion of the maintenance and repair
work.
4.1.4 Danger due to electrical energy

Only use original fuses with the stipulated amperage. Switch off the plant immediately if there are
faults in the electrical energy supply.
Plant parts requiring inspection, maintenance and repair work must be separated from the power
supply. Parts which have been disconnected must first be checked for voltage, then earthed, short-
circuited and isolated from live parts in the same area.
4.1.5 Dangers when handling pneumatic and hydraulic equipment

Depressurise all system sections and pressure pipes (hydraulic equipment, compressed air equip-
ment) which are to be opened in accordance with the description of components, before starting
repair work.
Hydraulic equipment and pressure pipes are to be laid out and installed professionally. Do not
replace the connections. The fittings, lengths and quality of the hoses must comply with require-
ments.

The sound pressure level describes the level of sound energy that affects people around the sound
source. It depends on the sound field, such as distance to the sound source, and is specified in
decibels (dB(A)).
The sound power level describes the level of the actually emitted sound energy of a sound source.
It is therefore independent of the sound field and the ambient conditions and is indicated in deci-
bels (dB).

Double-shaft mixer DW 1.25 - DW 2.5
With the double-shaft mixers DW 1.25 - DW 2.5, the agitator is driven by a rotary current motor.
The force transfer takes place from the rotary current motor via the belt drive and gear “B” to the
mixing shaft. Gear “A” is driven by the cardan shaft. This results in both mixing shafts rotating
synchronously.
Double-shaft mixer DW 3.0 - DW 6.0
With the double-shaft mixers DW 3.0 - DW 6.0, the agitator is driven by two rotary current motors.

16.3.2 Mixing tool

The mixing tool consists of a mixing paddle and agitating arm.
The hub of the agitating arm is partitioned and bolted on the mixing shaft with positive locking.
The distance between the mixing paddles and mixer lining can be adjusted.
The outer mixing paddles also act as scrapers and remove the mixing product from the face walls.
The arm protection prevents the aggregates from jamming between the face wall and agitating
arm.
The mixing product is transported by the two counter-turning mixing shafts through the mixing
paddles from the outside to the centre.
The arrangement of the mixing paddles effects a horizontal and vertical blending.

4 Hydraulic cylinder 8 Gate slide
When the agitator is running, the mixer is discharged automatically via the hydraulically actuated
gate slide.
The hydraulic pump is driven by the gear and generates the pressure for the hydraulic cylinder.
The hydraulic cylinder actuates the gate slide.
The “Gate slide open”, “Gate slide closed” and “Gate slide in intermediate position” positions are
recorded by proximity switches and reported to the control.
The gate slide is only permitted to be partially open to transfer the mix to the truck mixer, in order to
ensure that the feeding hopper can receive the mix quantity.
LMT/820295005/160216/2016-02-17/en
The amount of mix that flows into the feeding hopper depends on the gate slide's intermediate
position. The intermediate position can be adjusted on the “Gate slide in intermediate position”
proximity switch.
To transfer the mix quickly, the gate slide opens until the “Gate slide open” proximity switch is
reached.
You must secure the gate slide when carrying out maintenance or repair work on the gate slide or
the hydraulic equipment.

Automatic lubrication takes place in lubrication cycles. One lubrication cycle consists of the lubrica-
tion time and pause time. During the lubrication time, all connected lubrication points are lubricated
2x and the piston detector is actuated 2x.
If the piston detector is only actuated 1x during the monitoring time then an error message is
issued by the control of the centralized lubricating system to the control of the concrete mixing
plant.
During the lubrication time, approx. 90% of the grease is distributed to the labyrinth seals, approx.
9% to the mix.shaft arrangem. of bearings and approx. 1% to the gate bearings.
Grease consumption
Around 8 l of grease is consumed in 40 operating hours. When the lubricant reservoir is empty, this

Cleaning the mixer
21.3 Cleaning the mixer
You must clean the mixer after finishing work and before extended shutdowns. This prevents
concrete hardening in the mixing trough and on the agitator. Depending on the concrete type, you
may have to clean the mixer after each batch.
21.3.1 Cleaning the mixer after operation

Fill the mixer in manual operation with a batch of broken material such as stone chips. This
provides a better cleaning effect than unbroken material.
u Start the mixer.
u Fill the mixer with broken material.
u Fill the mixer with a batch of water.
u Run the mixer until the deposits have been removed from the mixing trough and the agitator.
NOTICE
Cement water can get into the soil.
u Ensure that the water that is drained cannot get into the soil uncontrollably.
u Dispose of cleaning water in a recycling plant.
If there is no swing pipe installed for cleaning:

u Have a truck mixer or a wheel loader drive under the collecting funnel.
u Open the gate on the mixer.
NOTICE
Water penetrating can cause damage on the electrical plant.
The mixer is no longer operational.
u Do not direct water towards electrical components.
NOTICE
Water penetrating rinses the grease out of the bearing point.
The bearing point will be damaged.
u Do not direct water towards bearing points.
