HELPFUL HINTS
• If necessary, switch unit off and scrape sides of bowl with spatula
for best results.
• Eggs at room temperature are best for whisking and beating.
• Before whisking egg whites, make sure there is no grease or egg
yolk on the whisk or bowl.
• Use cold ingredients when making pastries unless recipe states
otherwise.
TROUBLESHOOTING – STANDARD ACCESSORIES
(the “V” Beater, whip, and dough hook attachments are pre set at the factory, but they can be
adjusted if necessary)
• If the accessories (stainless steel whip or stainless steel
V-beater) should knock against the bottom of the
bowl or is not reaching the ingredients in the bottom
of the bowl, you can adjust the height by:
– Unplug stand mixer.
– Raise the mixer head and insert the accessory.
– Hold it, and loosen the nut as shown.
– Lower the mixer head.
– Adjust the height by turning the shaft. For ideal
operation the stainless steel whip and stainless
steel V-beater should be almost touching the
bottom of the bowl.
– Raise the head, hold the accessory in place and
tighten the nut.
• Your mixer is fitted with an overload protection device
and will stop if overloaded to protect the machine.
In the unlikely event this happens:
– Switch off and unplug the mixer.
– Remove some of the ingredients to reduce the load, and allow
the mixer to stand for a few minutes.
– Plug in and reselect the speed. If the mixer does not restart
immediately allow to stand for additional time.
