Before You Assemble Your MudMixer
Before beginning assembly, choose a clean, stable work area with enough space to safely handle the machine and its components.
The MudMixer is a heavy piece of equipment and the manufacturer states that two people are required for lifting and assembly. Do not attempt to lift or turn the machine into position unaided.
Carefully unpack the carton and check that all components and hardware required for assembly are present. The main assembly components include the machine base, wheels, handle, frame base, circular pivot bushing, axle shaft and base plate.
Keep a large section of the shipping carton to use as a protective mat while assembling the machine.
If any components appear to be missing or damaged, do not use the machine. Contact MudMixer UK for assistance.

Adjustable or channel-lock type pliers
