Before using your mixer for the first time, wash the beaters in hot/soapy water,
or the dishwasher. Rinse and dry.
Be sure speed control is in the “OFF” or “0” position and unplugged from an
electrical outlet. Insert beaters one at a time, by placing stem end of beaters into
the opening drive holes on the bottom of the mixer. Turn beater slightly and
push in until beater clicks into position. Beaters are interchangeable.
When using the optional dough hooks, the dough hook with the collar on the
stem (see feature drawing) towards the tip fits into the large drive hole on the
mixer. The dough hook without the collar on the stem fits into the smaller drive
hole. If dough hooks do not click into the drive holes, reverse and try again.
M IXING
Turn mixer on and refer to speed guide for correct setting. Slowly guide mixer
around sides and through center of bowl, going in the same direction. Be careful
not to overbeat the mixture. Overbeating tends to make some mixtures tough.
Whenever scraping of the bowl is required, stop the mixer and scrape sides and
bottom of bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Turn speed control to “OFF”
or “0” and rest mixer on its heel rest while adding ingredients. Be sure to
position beaters over mixing bowl so any drippings will fall back into
mixing bowl.
When mixing is complete, set speed control to “1”, and raise beaters slowly from
batter to clean off clinging food. Be sure to turn unit to “0” before raising
beaters completely out of mixing bowl.
