Is This Right For You?

Buy if

  • You need to pour concrete into columns, walls, or forms from height — hoppers give precise pour control
  • Your crew mixes on site and pours repeatedly without a concrete truck — hoppers work with a separate mixer
  • Tight access sites where a concrete truck can't reach and pour accuracy matters

Skip if

  • You need to mix the concrete yourself — a rotating drum cement mixer does the mixing and pouring
  • Flat slab work with no forms — a bucket or chute is simpler for that application

Also consider

  • Standard cement mixer if you also need to mix concrete (not just pour)
  • Large-capacity cement mixer for high-volume pours
Machine Compatibility

Compatible with all skid steer brands and compact track loaders via universal SSQA quick attach. Mid-frame machines (S450–S650 class) are the most common fit.

Care & Maintenance

  • Pre-wet the drum with water and coarse aggregate before first use and after any idle period — concrete bonds permanently to a dry drum and is nearly impossible to remove once cured
  • Flush the drum with water and a handful of gravel immediately after every pour — even 30 minutes of delay can start the curing process on residual concrete
  • Grease drum bearing mounts and hydraulic motor drive shaft weekly during active use
  • Inspect the drum opening seal for wear and replace before it allows concrete to reach the bearing housing — concrete in the bearing is immediate bearing failure
  • Store with the drum oriented to drain — standing water inside the drum rusts the interior and degrades the mixing fins over time

How to Connect

  1. Attach mixer frame using Bob-Tach
  2. Connect hydraulic drum rotation circuit
  3. Test drum direction — drum should mix inward (counterclockwise as viewed from chute side) for mixing, reverse to discharge
  4. Verify drum is empty before connecting to machine
Safety NoteCement mixers are standard-flow. Do not overfill — follow max load ratings on drum decal.
