Beater to Bowl Clearance
Your Stand Mixer is adjusted at the factory so the flat beater just clears the bottom of
the bowl. If, for any reason, the flat beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far
away from the bowl, you can correct clearance easily.
Tilt Head Stand Mixers:
1. Turn speed control to "O."
2. Unplug Stand Mixer.
3. Lift motor head.
4. Turn screw (A) SLIGHTLYcounter-
clockwise (left) to raise flat beater or
clockwise (right) to lower flat beater.
5. Make adjustment with flat beater, so it
just clears surface of bowl. If you over
adjust the screw, the bowl lock lever
may not lock into place.
NOTE: When properly adjusted, the flat
beater will not strike on the bottom or
side of the bowl. If the flat 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.
