CLUTCH
The paddle shaft and mixing blades are engaged and
disengaged by tightening and loosening the drive belts with a
spring loaded idler pulley. To engage the clutch, rotate the lever
counterclockwise. The spring maintains the correct belt tension.
To disengage the clutch, rotate the lever clockwise against the
lever stop. The engine base is slotted to adjust for belt wear and
to bring the idler pulley into operating range.
CAUTION: Stop the engine before allowing anybody to put
their hands in the mixing drum.
WHEEL BEARINGS
After every 3 months of operation, remove the hub dust cap and
inspect the wheel bearings. Once a year, or when required,
disassemble the wheel hubs remove the old grease and repack
the bearings forcing grease between rollers, cone and cage
with a good grade of high speed wheel bearing grease (never
use grease heavier than 265 A.S.T.M. penetration (“No. 2.”) Fill
the wheel hub with grease to the inside diameter of the outer
races and also fill the hub grease cap. Reassemble the hub
and mount the wheel. Then tighten the adjusting nut, at the
same time turn the wheel in both directions, until there is a
slight bind to be sure all the bearing surfaces are in contact.
Then back-off the adjusting nut

to ¼ turn or to the nearest
locking hole or sufficiently to allow the wheel to rotate freely
within limits of .001" to .010" end play. Lock the nut at this position.
