Stand Mixer will mix
faster and more thoroughly than most
other electric stand mixers. Therefore,
the mixing time in most recipes must
be adjusted to avoid overbeating. With
cakes, for example, beating time may be
half as long as with other stand mixers.
NOTE: Do not scrape bowl while
Stand Mixer is operating.
The bowl and beater are designed
to provide thorough mixing without
frequent scraping. Scraping the bowl
once or twice during mixing is usually
sufcient. Turn Stand Mixer off before
scraping. The Stand Mixer may warm
up during use. Under heavy loads with
extended mixing time, you may not
be able to comfortably touch the top
of the Stand Mixer. This is normal.
Mixing Time
Mixer Use
Your Stand Mixer is adjusted at the factory so the at beater just clears the bottom
of the bowl. If, for any reason, the at beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far
away from the bowl, you can correct the clearance easily.
1. Unplug Stand Mixer.
2. Place bowl-lift lever in down
position.
3. Attach at beater.
4. Adjust so at beater just clears
bottom surface of bowl when in
lifted position by turning screw (A)
counterclockwise to raise the bowl
and clockwise to lower the bowl.
Just a slight turn is all that is
required: the screw will not rotate
more than 1/4 turn (90 degrees)
in either direction. (The full range
of adjustment is 1/2 turn, or 180
degrees.)
5. Place bowl-lift lever in up
position to check clearance.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 if necessary.
NOTE: When properly adjusted, the at
beater will not strike on the bottom or
side of the bowl. If the at beater or the
wire whip is so close that it strikes the
bottom of the bowl, coating may wear
off the beater or wires on whip may wear.
