Oster 2600 Instruction Manual page 9

The Mixing Bowl has two speed settings. The Mixing Bowl On/Speed Selector Switch
(figure 7) is used to switch the Mixing Bowl on and select it's speed as follow:
0/Off = off
1 = low speed
2 = high speed
Slowly guide Mixer around sides and through center of bowl, going in the same
direction. Be careful not to over beat the mixture. Over beating the mixture tends to
make some mixtures tough.
Whenever scraping of the bowl is required, stop the Mixer and scrape sides and
bottom of bowl with the rubber spatula as needed. Turn speed control to "0" and rest
Mixer on its heel rest while adding ingredients. Be sure to position Beaters over mixing
bowl so any dripping will fall back into mixing bowl.
Ingredients should be added to the mixing bowl as they are specified in the recipe.
When combining wet and dry ingredients, you may wish to moisten ingredients on low
speed, and then turn to the desired speed as specified in the mixing guide.
