DISASSEMBLY

BEFORE FIRST USE

• Wash bowl and mixing tools in warm soapy water with a soft cloth. Rinse
and dry thoroughly.
• The bowl and the attachments may be washed in the dishwasher.
• When first using your bench mixer, you may notice an odour coming from
the motor. This is normal and will dissipate with use.
ATTACHING THE BOWL
1. The mixer motor head should be in the horizontal (closed) position
when moving.
2. To remove or insert the mixing bowl, the mixer motor head must be
raised and locked into the open position. Raise the mixer motor head
by pressing the TILT RELEASE button (see fig. 1 ).
3. Lift the motor head up until it tilts back and locks into the open position
(see fig. 2 ).
4. Insert the bowl into the bowl locking recess and turn clockwise until the
bowl locks securely into place (see fig. 3 ).
ATTACHING MIXING AND WHISKING TOOLS
1. Raise the motor head by pressing the TILT RELEASE button.
2. Align the groove in the top of the mixing attachment with the locking pin
on the spindle extending down from the mixer motor head.
3. Push the attachment upwards and turn clockwise until it locks securely
onto the locking pin on the spindle (see fig. 4 ).
4. Lower the motor head by pressing the TILT RELEASE button and
gently lowering until it locks into the closed position.
5. The splatter guard can now be assembled if required. Slide the main
ring into position on top of bowl, then assemble the pour spout.
DISASSEMBLING THE MIXER
1. When mixing is complete, turn the speed control dial to the
OFF|STANDBY position, switch the appliance off at the power outlet
and unplug the cord.
2. To remove splash guard, separate the pour spout, then slide main ring
out of position.
3. Raise the mixer motor head by pressing the TILT RELEASE button.
Lift the motor head up until it locks into the open position.

the spindle.
5. TILT RELEASE and remove the mixing bowl from locking recess on
mixer base by turning anti-clockwise.

OPERATION

USING THE SCRAPER BEATER
The Scraper Beater can be used for a variety of mixing tasks.
Due to the efficient mixing action of the Scraper Beater, the mixing time
of many recipes will be reduced. Refer to the chart below for approximate
mixing times. These are a guide only. Longer mixing times may be required
for larger or double quantities (see table 1).
NOTE
Do not use the Scraper Beater for mixing heavy batters, doughs, whisking
egg whites or whipping potatoes.
TIP
• When adding flour to the mixing bowl, always use the pouring shield and
ensure the mixer is on the FOLD/KNEAD setting. This will prevent flour
from escaping the mixing bowl.
• The Scraper Beater can also be used as a spatula when removing
mixtures from the mixing bowl.
FUNCTIONS
OPERATING THE MIXER
1. Ensure the power cord is unplugged and the speed control dial is in
the OFF position.
2. Assemble the bowl and mixing / whisking tool, as noted in the previous
section.
3. Press the TILT RELEASE button and lower the mixer head until it locks
into the closed position (see fig. 5 ).
4. Attach the pouring shield, if desired.
5. The LED's on the speed indicator will illuminate one-by-one all the way
to the top, then turn off one-by-one. The LCD screen will display 0:00.
6. Always begin mixing by selecting a low speed setting on the speed
control dial. Increase the speed as suited to the mixing task. If
necessary, stop the mixer during operation and scrape any food
mixture down the sides of the mixing bowl with a spatula.
7. If the mixer has not been used for 5 minutes it will automatically
change from STANDBY mode to a power saving OFF mode and the
illuminated LED will switch off. To exit OFF mode and begin mixing,
turn the dial to the selected speed or press one of the count up/down
timer buttons.
8. Do not turn the mixer on with the scraper beater in place if the mixing
bowl is empty. This will cause the scraper beater to make a loud noise
as it scrapes the bowl.
9. When ingredients are in the mixing bowl, the scraper beater may make
a slight noise as it scrapes the sides and bottom of the bowl. This is
normal and should not cause concern.
10. Under heavier loads or extended mixing time, the motor head may
become warm. This is normal and should not cause concern.
