Attachments

To install an attachment, loosen the attachment hub thumb screw and remove the plug. Insert the attachment into the attachment hub, making certain that the square shank of the attachment is in the square driver of the mixer. Secure the attachment by tightening the thumb screw.

Move the gear shift lever to the desired speed. With the bowl support all the way up and the wire cage in the front-center position, start the mixer to operate the attachment.

The meat and food chopper attachment should be operated in second or third speed. If material in the cylinder stalls the mixer, push the STOP button at once. DO NOT attempt to restart the mixer in a lower speed — remove the adjusting ring, knife, plate, and worm and clear any obstruction. THIS ATTACHMENT MUST NOT BE USED TO CHOP BREAD CRUMBS.

NOTE: Do not use attachment hub while mixing.

Bowl Scraper Attachment

The Mixer Bowl Scraper Attachment (when ordered) is provided with a separate instruction manual covering its installation, operation, use and care.

CLEANING
