MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
The WHEELMAN Mixer requires very low maintenance.However, a few basic maintenance procedures
shouldbefollowed.
NOTE: Always unplug the mixer from its power source before cleaning or maintenance
functions are performed.
1) Clean the mixer after each use and do not allowany concrete to build up on anyportion of the mixer.
2) Essentially the gearbox is sealed for life. The quality of the gears and the lubricant are such that
changing the oil is not necessary. Should you want to change the oil, see your dealer or call IMER
U.S.A. @ 800.275.5463.
3) Keep all moving parts lightly lubricated with WD-40.
4) Keep the electric motor cooling fins clean and free of debris build-up.
