That's a good idea, I will try that when I start mixing more mortar. Currently I'm only on a bucket load each time!
I'm going to extend the mixer cable as running an extension lead is annoying and a worry when it rains a little...

@SpecialK one of the most helpful things stu crompton said was about not bothering with the stand for his mixer.
I’ve got the same one as you, although older as it’s blue, and was lugging it on and off the stand and tipping the mortar into a wheel barrow (and missing).
Since then I just have it on the floor and shovel a full bucket load of mortar out of the mixer at a time which is enough for a spot board.
