Multiquip 13280 Drum Lock Lever

The Multiquip 13280 Drum Lock Lever is a genuine OEM component designed for Essick Mixers and Whiteman Mixers series equipment, including the EM120P, EM120S, WM120PH, and WM120SH. As a direct OEM replacement, this lever is manufactured to the same standards as the original part, ensuring correct fit and proper drum locking function without additional modification. Sourced directly from Multiquip, the 13280 is the correct service part for maintaining safe and dependable drum positioning on your mixer. DHS Equipment stocks this part to keep your concrete or mortar mixer operating as intended.

Key Features

• OEM-Matched Locking Geometry — Manufactured to the same dimensional spec as the original, ensuring the lever engages and holds the drum securely at the correct detent positions.
• Drop-In Installation — Replaces the original drum lock lever using existing hardware and mounting points — no drilling, re-tapping, or adapter hardware needed.
• Confirmed Fitment — Compatible with Essick EM120P and EM120S series and Whiteman WM120PH and WM120SH mixers.
• Consistent Drum Control — A properly functioning drum lock lever lets operators lock the drum at the correct discharge or loading angle every time, supporting clean, controlled pours and safe material handling.
• Operator Safety — A worn or failed drum lock lever can allow unintended drum movement during loading or discharge, creating a hazard on the worksite. Replacing it promptly restores secure, predictable drum control.

The drum lock lever is a mechanical latch component that holds the mixer drum in a fixed position — typically at loading angle or discharge angle — during operation. When the lever is engaged, it prevents the drum from rotating freely, allowing the operator to load materials or discharge mix in a controlled and stable manner. Over time, the lever can wear, bend, or fracture from repeated use and impact, causing the drum to slip out of position unexpectedly; replacing it restores the reliable, positive locking action that safe mixer operation depends on.
