Electrical Shock Hazard
Do not immerse motor housing, cord, or plug
in water or any other liquid.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death, fire, or electrical shock.
Cleaning and Sanitizing Instructions
General Cleaning with the Attachment
in Place
Between batches, clean the cutting blades by
running the unit in a washing solution*, then rinsing
the attachment in clear water as follows:
1. Make sure the mixer is off and unplugged.
2. Rinse the stainless steel exterior of the attachment
under running water. Flush and/or scrub to remove
as much food residue as possible.
3. Wipe down the motor housing with a clean, damp
cloth. Take care not to allow water to enter the
motor vents. Dry with a soft cloth.
4. Plug in the unit, immerse the attachment
approximately 1/2 of the length of the stainless
steel portion in a container of warm (less than
115° F, 46° C) washing solution*, and run on high
speed for two minutes.
5. Unplug the unit and repeat steps 3 and 4 using
clean rinse water (95° F, 35° C) in place of the
washing solution.
* Use 1 drop of household dishwashing liquid per 16 oz.
(1/2 liter) water or the equivalent.
Attachment may also be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Sanitizing
If the immersion mixer will not be used again within
one hour, sanitize in the following manner:
1. Wash as instructed in “General Cleaning with the
Attachment in Place”.
2. Immerse attachment approximately 1/2 of the
length of the stainless steel portion in a container
of a cold chlorine-based sanitizing solution that
has a minimum chlorine concentration of 100 parts
per million. (See recommended solution below.)
Operate unit on high speed for two minutes.
3. Do not rinse. Allow unit to air dry before use.
Weekly Attachment Cleaning
Once every week, stand the attachment, blade down,
in 3 inches of boiling water for one minute. Wear
protective gloves when removing attachment from
water as it will be hot. Allow to air dry.
Recommended Sanitizing Solution
The sanitizing solution should consist of one
tablespoon of household bleach per one gallon
of clean, cool water (60° F, 16° C) mixed according
to the instructions on the bleach. When using a
sanitizing solution other than that recommended,
the sanitizing solution concentration should be tested
using commercially available test strips and should
indicate a chlorine concentration between 100 and
200 parts per million.
Autoclave
The stainless steel shaft/blade assembly can be
steam sterilized using an autoclave. Refer to the
autoclave equipment supplier and facility operating
instructions if this method is used. The frequency of
sterilization is determined by each user’s “best prac-
tices”; however, replace the assembly once it has
been sterilized 500 times.
DO NOT use this method for the motor unit.
