PRODUCT USAGE

BEATER TO BOWL CLEARANCE
Your mixer is adjusted at the factory so that
the Flat Beater just clears the bottom of
the bowl. If, for any reason, the Flat Beater
strikes the bottom of the bowl, or is too
far away from the bowl, clearance can be
corrected as follows:
Tilt Head
1. Lift Motor Head.
2. Turn screw (A) slightly to the left to
raise Flat Beater and to the right to
lower Flat Beater.
3.
Make adjustment with Flat Beater, so it
just clears surface of bowl.
PLANETARY MIXING ACTION
During operation, the Flat Beater moves around the stationary bowl,
at the same time turning in the opposite direction on its own axis. The
diagram shows the complete coverage of the bowl made by the path
of the beater.
Your KitchenAid mixer will mix faster and more thoroughly than most
other electric mixers. Therefore, the mixing time in most recipes must
be adjusted to avoid overbeating.
MIXER USE
The bowl and beater are designed to
provide thorough mixing without frequent
scraping. Scraping the bowl once or twice
during mixing is usually sufficient.
The mixer may warm up during use. Under
heavy loads with extended mixing time,
you may not be able to comfortably touch
the top of the unit. This is normal.

NOTE: Flat Beater must not strike on
bottom or side of bowl when properly
adjusted. If beater or Wire Whip is adjusted
too close so that it strikes bottom of bowl,
coating may wear off of beaters or wires
may wear through on Wire Whip. Scraping
sides of bowl may be necessary under
certain conditions regardless of beater
adjustment. Mixer must be stopped to
scrape bowl or damage to mixer may occur.
Unplug mixer before touching
beaters.
Failure to do so can result in
broken bones, cuts, or bruises.
