FAQs

What is the maximum batch size for this mixer?

The drum has a capacity of 70 litres. It is recommended to not exceed this capacity to ensure optimal mixing and prevent strain on the motor.

How do I clean the cement mixer after use?

After unplugging the mixer, rinse the drum with water. For stubborn residue, use a stiff brush. It's crucial to clean it immediately after each use to prevent material from hardening.

Can this mixer be used for plaster or render?

Yes, the Pollor 70L mixer is suitable for mixing cement, mortar, and render. Ensure you follow the material manufacturer's instructions for mixing ratios.

What type of power supply is required?

The mixer requires a standard 230V single-phase power supply.

Is this mixer suitable for professional construction sites?

This mixer is designed for DIY and light construction projects. For larger or continuous professional use, a higher capacity or more powerful model may be more appropriate.

How much does the mixer weigh?

The Pollor 70L Electric Cement Mixer weighs approximately 26kg.

Can I use extension cords with the mixer?

If an extension cord is necessary, use a heavy-duty cord rated for outdoor use and appropriate for the mixer's power requirements to avoid voltage drop and potential overheating.

Troubleshooting

Mixer does not turn on

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working 230V outlet. Check the circuit breaker. Verify the power switch is in the 'on' position.

Inconsistent mixing or materials not blending well

Ensure the correct ratio of materials and water is used. Do not overload the drum. Check if the mixing paddles are clean and free of hardened material.

Motor seems strained or overheating

Reduce the amount of material being mixed. Ensure the drum is not overfilled. Allow the motor to cool down if it feels excessively hot.

Drum is difficult to tilt or empty

Ensure no hardened material is obstructing the tilt mechanism. Clean the area around the tilt handle and pivot points.
