I am looking for a 3 pt cement mixer. Does anyone have one for sale, or know of one for sale?

Thanks

You know, Gary, I've been interested in this myself. I've often thought that maybe a person could buy one of the relatively cheap electric cement mixers, just set the motor aside somewhere in case you need it later, and rig up a pully system from the PTO to the now-motorless mixer. Also, you could buy a generator and buy an electric mixer and run the electric mixer off the generator. And you will have a generator for other uses. After all, what you want is ability to mix concrete away from your house or shop, i.e., away from electricity. Another thought is to get a gas powered engine and replace the electric motor on the electric mixer with your gas engine. You'd need to match horsepower, etc. Let me know if you come up with something, and I'll do the same. Interesting topic.

if you were to change the electric motor on a mixer to a gas one ya would need a more hp gas engine, a half horse electric motor will do alot more work than a half hp gas engine would, they arnt rated equal

Right. But I don't know the ratio. Any guess on that?

I have a compressor that has a 5 hp electric motor. Same machine with a gas engine requires 9 hp.

Northern tool (northerntool.com) sells them, but they have to have a hydraulic top link.

Gary-

The Classified Ads section of this site will get your request more exposure. You do realize that an N's PTO spins only in one direction...?

whats wrong with the n series pto turning only one way, i have never used a 3pt mixer but the electric mixer and the big gas powered one we had never reversed. so i dont see what the n series pto turning one way has to do with this. northern hydraulics sells a 3pt mixer i believe

The 3 pnt mixers are commonly turned by the PTO. If'n all you want to do is mix concrete and then dump it (SPLAT!), then a unidirectional PTO is fine.

For more controlled pours, it is nice to be able to reverse PTO direction.

The unidirectional PTO of an N is one reason why the N is not great for auger work - if it gets stuck you can't reverse it and you have to dig it out.

How many tractors do have a reversable pto? I've seen multi speed pto's.. and even a reversed pto on a grey kubota ... but don't think I have seen a reversable one.

What make/models have them?

Mark..... ...thats funny ('skuza pse)..... (grin) The BIG cement mixer delivery trucks have the ablility to "reverse" direction of mixer to "unscrew" the wet mix outta the drum, otherwize you'd never get the cement outta the truck. They have NO dump, think about it.

On small home mixers and the 3-point mixer you "DUMP" the barrel and the mixture flows outta the mouth into the form or wheelbarrow..... ...Dell

our large tow behind gas powered mixer doesnt reverse or dump, it has a chute that reaches into the drum when you want to dump it out,as the drum rotates the cement it is caught by the chute as it falls off the paddles,some cement trucks are designed this way also, but like you said most of the newer cement trucks reverse to empty the concrete
