MACHINE MIXING INSTRUCTIONS

QUIKRETE Concrete Mix can be mixed in a barrel type concrete mixer or a mortar mixer.

• Choose the mixer size most appropriate for the size of the job to be done
• Allow at least 1 cu ft (28 L) of mixer capacity for each 80 lb (36.3 kg) bag of QUIKRETE Concrete Mix to be mixed at one time
• For each 80 lb (36.3 kg) bag of QUIKRETE Concrete Mix to be mixed, add approximately 6 pt (2.8 L) of fresh water to the mixer
• Turn on the mixer and begin adding the concrete to the mixer
• If the material becomes too difficult to mix, add additional water until a workable mix is obtained
• If a slump cone is available, adjust water to achieve a 2" - 3" (51 - 76 mm) slump

Note - Final water content should be approximately 6 - 9 pt (2.8 - 4.3L) of water per 80 lb (36.3 kg) bag of concrete. For other bag sizes, use Table 2 to determine water content.
