may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the unit.
This is normal.
Stop the Stand Mixer. See the "Product Assembly" section
and adjust the Beater to Bowl Clearance.
To move the Speed Control Lever with ease, lift slightly up
as you move it across the settings in either direction.

on. If the Stand Mixer still does not start, allow it to cool for
30 minutes before turning it back on.
