Step to Follow For Using the Galvanised Paint Mixer | 10x50cm

Preparation:

Ensure your power drill is fully charged or plugged in. Select a drill with adjustable speed settings to achieve the recommended 600 rpm. Confirm the substance to be mixed is in a container suitable for power mixing, with enough space to prevent splashing.

How to Use the Galvanised Paint Mixer | 10x50cm:

1. Attach to Drill: Securely insert the shaft of the galvanised paint mixer into the chuck of your power drill. Tighten the chuck firmly to prevent slippage during operation.
2. Position in Substance: Lower the mixer into the substance you wish to mix, ensuring the mixing head is fully submerged before starting the drill. This prevents splashing.
3. Start Mixing: Begin mixing at a low speed, gradually increasing to approximately 600 rpm. Move the mixer around the container to ensure all areas are thoroughly blended.
4. Monitor Consistency: Continue mixing until the substance reaches your desired smooth and consistent texture.
5. Remove Mixer: Once mixed, turn off the drill and carefully lift the mixer out of the container, allowing any excess material to drip back in.

Cleanup:

• Immediately after use, clean the mixer to prevent material from drying on it.
• For water-based materials (like paint or drywall patches), rinse the mixer thoroughly under running water or by briefly spinning it in a bucket of water.
• For concrete or other stubborn materials, you might need to scrape off excess before rinsing.
• Dry the mixer completely before storing it to prevent rust, despite its galvanised coating.

Health and Safety

Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses or goggles, and gloves, when operating the mixer, especially when mixing substances that may splash or irritate skin/eyes (e.g., concrete, strong paints). Ensure the mixing container is stable and securely positioned to prevent tipping. Do not exceed the recommended speed of the mixer, as this can cause splashing or put undue strain on your drill. Keep hands, clothing, and other body parts away from the rotating mixer blade. Use in a well-ventilated area, particularly when mixing paint or other materials with fumes. Disconnect the mixer from the drill before cleaning or storage.
