Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You pour concrete footings, posts, pads, or fill blocks on sites where a mixer truck can't access or isn't cost-effective
- Remote construction, farm buildings, fence posts, or equipment pads where bagged concrete is the realistic supply
- You want to add concrete mixing capability to an existing skid steer without buying a standalone towable mixer
⛔ Skip if…
- You pour large volumes daily — a dedicated towable mixer or ready-mix truck is more efficient
- Your machine is compact — a full drum of concrete is heavy, check your rated operating capacity
🔍 Also consider…
- Heavy-duty cement mixer for large-frame machines and high-volume pours
- Concrete hopper bucket if mixing is done elsewhere and you just need precise pouring
🔧 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
- Attach mixer frame using Bob-Tach
- Connect hydraulic drum rotation circuit
- Test drum direction — drum should mix inward (counterclockwise as viewed from chute side) for mixing, reverse to discharge
- Verify drum is empty before connecting to machine
⚠ Safety NoteCement mixers are standard-flow. Do not overfill — follow max load ratings on drum decal.
