ACCESSORY GUIDE

SPEED CONTROL GUIDE

All speeds features Soft Start which allows the Stand Mixer to start at a lower speed to help avoid ingredient splash-out and "flour puff" at start-up, then increases to the selected speed.

NOTE: Use Speed 2 to mix or knead yeast doughs. Use of any other speed creates high potential for Stand Mixer failure. The PowerKnead Stainless Steel Spiral Dough Hook efficiently kneads most yeast dough within 4 minutes.

CAPACITY CHART

PRODUCT ASSEMBLY

1. Turn the Stand Mixer to "OFF (0)" and then unplug.
   
2. Place Bowl-Lift Lever in down position.
   
   
   If the Bowl is not securely snapped into place, it will be unstable and wobble during use.
3. To attach the Bowl: Fit the Bowl Supports over Locating Pins and press down on back of the Bowl until Bowl Pin snaps into spring latch.
   
4. To attach the accessory: Slip the accessory onto the shaft. Turn to hook it over the pin on the shaft.
   
5. To raise the bowl: Rotate the Bowl-Lift Lever to the straight up position. The Bowl must always be in the raised position when mixing.
   
6. 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.
   
7. (OPTIONAL) To adjust Beater to Bowl clearance: Lower the Bowl to the down position. Turn the screw slightly counterclockwise (left) to raise the Beater, or clockwise (right) to lower it. Adjust the beater so that it just clears the surface of the Bowl. Check again the clearance of the Beater to the Bowl.
   

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.

USING THE BOWL GUARD* AND POURING CHUTE*

1. To attach the Bowl Guard*: Make sure that the guard is returned to the down position before beginning to use the Stand Mixer. The Stand Mixer will not run if the Bowl Guard is not in the proper position.
   
2. Place the Pouring Chute*: Attach the pouring shield to the front of Bowl Guard. It provides a convenient way to add ingredients to the Stand Mixer Bowl.
   

*Available with select models only and available as an accessory purchase.

Auto-Reset Motor Protection: If the Stand Mixer stops due to overload, slide the Speed Control Lever to "OFF (0)" and unplug the Stand Mixer. After a few minutes, the Stand Mixer will automatically reset. Plug the Stand Mixer back in and slide the Speed Control Lever to the desired speed and continue mixing. If the Stand Mixer does not restart, unplug the Stand Mixer for a longer period of time to allow it to cool, then plug back in and restart the Stand Mixer.

Stop Switch: If you need to stop the Stand Mixer immediately during use, press the Stop Switch. To resume operation, reset the Speed Control Lever to "OFF (0)", and pull out the Stop Switch. Then, your Stand Mixer is ready to be used normally again.

Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into an earthed outlet. Do not remove earth prong. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

Injury Hazard Unplug the mixer before touching beaters. Failure to do so can result in broken bones, cuts, or bruises.

1. Plug it into an earthed outlet. Start with lower speed to avoid splashing and increase it gradually. Refer to the "Speed Control Guide".
   
2. Do not scrape the Bowl while operating. Scraping the Bowl once or twice during mixing is usually sufficient.
