Beater to bowl clearance

Your Stand Mixer is adjusted at the factory so the flat beater just clears the bottom of the bowl. If, for any reason, the flat beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far away from the bowl, you can correct clearance easily.

1

Turn speed control to “O”. Unplug

Stand Mixer.

NOTE: When properly adjusted, the flat beater will not strike on the bottom or side 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 whip may wear.

2

Lift motor head. Turn screw slightly

counterclockwise (left) to raise flat

beater or clockwise (right) to lower flat beater. Make adjustment with flat beater, so it just clears surface of bowl. If you over adjust the screw, the bowl lock lever may not lock into place.
