1. A method for removing material build-up in a mixing chamber of a rotary mixer machine, the method comprising:
receiving, by a controller, an input from an input device to activate one or more actuators, wherein the one or more actuators correspond to one or more first actuators and one or more second actuators;
activating, by the controller, the one or more second actuators in response to the input to raise the mixing chamber up to a predefined height threshold with respect to a ground surface; and
activating, by the controller, once the mixing chamber is raised up to the predefined height threshold, the one or more first actuators in response to the input to induce a forward and backward rocking motion in the mixing chamber, the forward and backward rocking motion being executed between a first position and a second position about an axis disposed transversally to a length of the rotary mixer machine.
