The ultimate low maintenance mortar/plaster mixer

Hydra Flow

Proven tough in years of rough on-the-job performance. Hydraulics have for dozens of years lightened many heavy tasks... dumping a truck bed, steering, even helping stop a truck, and now, in mixers too! The Hydra-Flow mixers have this advanced design and complementing quality components; like the greasable flange bearings which eliminate the problems of seals leaking mud and ruining the paddle shaft bearings. With just minimal care, these bearings will last and last.

There's hydraulic muscle to mix left or right, run full strength forward, or in reverse directions... on gas, or electric power. Years on-the-job have proven these mixers to be a smart business decision for their owners and they prove it to you too!

Hinged cowl eases maintenance. Hydra-Flow mixers feature a swing-away cowl to help speed up what little maintenance there is. All-new hydraulic drive system is a real maintenance-miser!

What they don't have is their best feature. No gear boxes! No drive belts! No clutches! Virtually nothing to jam up. What they do have is a very simple, very smooth performing hydraulic system.

Hydraulics eliminate a mixer's biggest problem. 10, 13 & 16 cu. ft. capacity mortar/plaster models. Most models are also available in custom colors.

They get stuck. Jam up on a stone. Break a sheer pin, or worse, something else. But either way it stops your construction. But when a new Hydra-Flow mixer hits a stone, a unique by-pass system prevents any damage to the mixer. Your operator frees the blades by simply reversing direction, instantly the unit is ready to continue mixing... without any time and profit consuming repairs. The interruption lasts only seconds! It's that fast and easy on your operator... and mixer.
