Getting the correct mix can take some practice depending of type of sand and finish required due to regional variations in building sand.<br> <br> 2. Hydrated lime can be used as an alternative to plasticiser.<br> <br> 3. The mortar mix needs to be fairly creamy when mixing in the bucket. If it will not pump, it is too stiff or there is not enough plasticiser/lime.<br> <br> 4. Periodically stir the mortar in the bucket to prevent it becoming stiff.</font></p> </font> <p></p> <font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> 5. Smaller nozzles require a slightly wetter mix. If the nozzle blocks the mix is too stiff. If the nozzle drips, the mix is to wet. </font><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <p><font size="2">6. Before removing the nozzle to clear blockage, first try immersing the tip in a bucket of water and reverse the motion of the drill for a few seconds, suck up a little water then revert to forward motion.</font></p> <p><font size="2">7. Wetter mixes will dry slightly weaker, e.g. a 1-4 mix will dry to a 1-5 mix.</font></p> </font> <p></p> <font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> 8. Building sand used MUST be sieved for successful pointing. NOTE: Some cements are now manufactured with their own plasticser and no further additives should be necessary. </font><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <p><font size="2">9. Wet inside of hopper before use and do not overfill.</font></p> <p><font size="2">10. 5mm, 8mm, 10mm and 15mm diameter nozzles are available if required. Use more cement and plasticser to form a creamier wetter mix to ensure there are no lumps in the sand or cement. </font></p> <p><font size="2">11. Wash out the hopper with a hose using a spray attachment after finishing work or leaving for long periods between jobs. </font></p> </font> <p></p> <font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Raking Out: </font><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <p><font size="2">When repointing existing brick / stone work, old mortar should be taken out to a suitable depth, usually twice the width of the mortar joint. Using a hammer and chisel can be a slow job and result in damage to the face brick/stone work.</font></p> <p><font size="2">Tungsten Carbide and Diamond Rakers. Used with a Sole Plate fixed to an Angle grinder. The Sole plate offers you the capability to attach to a vacuum to reduce dust and can also determine the depth of cutting by a simple adjustment.</font></p> </font> <p></p> <font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">  </font> <p></p> <font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Our Tip<br> <br> The mortar in any work should be sacrificial to the bricks or stone- the latter being more costly to replace. On older properties where soft bricks have been used a lime mortar is preferable since it will be forgiving where movement is occurring and will allow the bricks to breath and so save the face from being destroyed by frost.<br> <br> Basic kit complete with sieve & scoop £199 each </font><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <p><font size="2">The machine is designed and manufactured to high standards; 4mm cast LMIO aluminum is used to ensure the hoppers longevity and the powder coated finish facilitates easy movement of the mix and easy cleaning. </font></p> <p><font size="2">Your Progrout will:</font></p> <p><font size="2">- Use Standard mixes.<br> - Increase your repointing capacity.<br> - Attach to any drill in seconds.<br> - Dismantle and reassemble in seconds for easy cleaning and lubrication.<br> - Be ideal for brick/stone work, patios and paving.<br> <br> motar <br> <br> - Give a clean finish with no wasted materials</font></p> </font></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="37"><div align="center"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Web Marketing by <a href="http://www.freshegg.co.uk">Fresh Egg Ltd</a></font></div></td> </tr> </table> </body>
