Beaters, Dough Hooks, Whisk:

Select the attachment according to the type of mixing required. Make sure that the mixer is unplugged from power source and speed selector is set on ”0" before inserting or removing beaters, dough hooks or whisk.

Beaters:

Use for liquid mixes such as creams, egg-whites, confectionery doughs, etc. insert stem end of beaters (one at a time) into the openings in the mixer. Insert the beater with the gear in the larger of the two holes. The gear on the beater must sit below the surface of the mixer housing. To ease the inserting of the beaters, a slight twisting motion will aid in engaging the beater drive tabs. Install the second beater in the same manner as above.

•We suggest that you begin at the highest speed to prevent the motor from blocking.

Dough hooks:

Use for light doughs. Insert dough hooks in the same way as beaters above. See installing instructions for beaters above. Always use both dough hooks. Never try to work with one beater and one dough hook at the same time. Do not use dough hooks at low speeds as this may cause motor to overheat. When using dough hooks for heavy or thick dough, use only high speed (3) from the beginning to prevent the motor from overheating (blocking).
