In theory I’ve had the mixer facing away from a wall . Bit splashes out into the floor - some of it went behind and hit the wall Use to put a sheet down and not overload . Still get splashes on things you don’t want splashed . This does the trick !!! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you stand in front of it and stare into it like it's a black hole abyss then the wall won't get hit. This might be a bit of an issue for you in your normal state of undress but am sure you would get used to cement burns on your delicate bits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pocster Posted August 1, 2018 Author Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) Soon I’ll be doing the block paving which has to bedded in concrete . Needless to say ; I need to mix concrete and not have it splash over my paving , or wall , or cladding , or fence !! plastic sheet on floor and ‘magic lid’ seems good. You are all obviously tidy and make no mess . I function differently ?? Edited August 1, 2018 by pocster Cant fucking type ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Declan52 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Does it just wedge in tight and can you take it off easily enough?? Most mixers I ever used had been on the end of quite a few bangs with hammers and shovels so the front was more egg shaped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not tight at all ; but doesn’t fall out either ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProDave Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Mine has an automatic overload preventer. The belt is so worn of you overload it it stops turning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
