SPEED CONTROL WHEEL
Use the variable speed control wheel
(3) for combining mixtures together
or for starting to mix ingredients,
then switch to the turbo power
setting (5) to beat well or to froth.
Rotate the speed control wheel (3)
on the top of the handle to change
the speed of the blade, as required.
The speed can be finely tuned with
each graduation on the wheel
increasing the speed from 9000rpm
to 17000rpm.
We recommend to start blending
using a slower speed and to increase
the speed setting as you blend your
mixture.
As a general rule, the higher the
speed the faster the blending. Liquids
are better blended at lower speeds as
this reduces splashing.
