CHANGING SPEEDS
The Clutch Lever is used when changing speeds. Moving the Clutch Lever to STOP disengages the
clutch and activates a brake which stops the planetary. The motor will continue to run with the Clutch
Lever on STOP unless the STOP button is pressed.
The Gear Shift Lever is used to change speeds. To change speeds, disengage the clutch by moving
the Clutch Lever to STOP. The brake is automatically actuated. When the agitator shaft has stopped,
move the Gear Shift Lever to the desired speed. Make sure the Gear Shift Lever lines up with the
number on the shifter plate — never position the handle between numbers. Place the Clutch Lever
on RUN to continue operation.
POWER BOWL LIFT
CAUTION: Before lowering the bowl onto a bowl truck, always unlock both bowl clamps.
The Power Bowl Lift Lever is used to raise or lower the bowl while the motor is running. The Wire Cage
Assembly must be in the front-centered position. If the Clutch Lever is in the RUN position, the
Planetary and Agitator will be mixing at the speed indicated by the position of the Gear Shift Lever (this
may be required by recipe or when using the Bowl Scraper Attachment). If the Clutch Lever is on STOP,
the Planetary and Agitator will not be mixing. The Electro-Mechanical Timer (if equipped), will allow
the mixer to operate if it is on HOLD or if time is set on the timer. The Programmable Timer Controller
will allow the mixer to operate if it is set to [ -- : -- ] or if time is set on the timer. Press and hold the
START button and move the Power Bowl Lift Lever clockwise to raise the bowl or counterclockwise to
lower it. An overload slip clutch will ratchet at the top and bottom stop positions to signal end of travel
and protect the operating mechanism. NOTE: On new machines, the power bowl lift lever may need
to be manually returned to the center neutral position until parts are broken-in.
MIXING
This section explains operation of the mixer and how to install bowls, agitators and attachments. A
separate
Use and Applications Handbook
, provided with the mixer, contains information on mixing
procedures and specific uses for agitators, attachments and accessories.
Bowl
New mixer bowls and agitators (beaters, whips, and dough arms) should be thoroughly washed with
hot water and a mild soap solution, rinsed with either a mild soda or vinegar solution, and thoroughly
rinsed with clear water BEFORE being used. This cleaning procedure should also be followed for
bowls and agitators before whipping egg whites or whole eggs.
The bowl must be installed before the agitator. To install the bowl, fully lower the bowl support. Position
the bowl so the alignment bracket on the back of the bowl is under the retainer on the bowl support and
the alignment pins on the front of the bowl support fit in the holes in the bowl. Lock the bowl in place
by rotating the bowl clamps over the ears of the bowl.
If a bowl adapter is required, install it on the bowl support as you would the bowl and then install the
bowl on the adapter.
Agitator
To install an agitator, the bowl must be installed and fully lowered. Place the agitator in the bowl, push
it up on the agitator shaft, and turn it clockwise to seat the shaft pin in the slot of the agitator shank.
