Test the beater to bowl clearance: Plug
the Stand Mixer into an earthed outlet.
Turn Stand Mixer ON and test each
speed, making sure the beater does not
touch the bowl during operation. If the
beater is too far away from the bottom or
is hitting the Bowl, proceed to next step
to make adjustments.
IMPORTANT: When properly adjusted, the Stainless Steel Flat Beater will not strike on the
bottom or sides 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 the whip may wear.
