How to Use Dough Hook

All the MCM models come with the mixing bowl, cover and pusher/measuring cup. The MCM 5200 comes with a dough hook, as shown in figure 5e, while the MCM 5100 and 5200 comes with the dough hook as shown in figure 5j. Both of these dough hooks are intended to be used to knead yeast doughs and to mix cookie and pastry doughs, and also when adding nuts, chocolate chips, dried fruit, hard butter or shortening, hardened brown sugar, etc. to batters.

Use of mixing bowl with dough hook Before beginning to attach this or any other attachment, make sure that the power unit is on a smooth, clean, suitable work surface and switched to the Off position, “O/Off,” and that you have the safety motor drive cover in place of the high speed, blender drive.

1.Before using the mixing bowl and dough hook for the first time they should be washed. See Before Using for the First Time, on page 4.

2.Make sure the safety motor drive cover has been snapped into place on the high-speed blender drive. Place the mixing bowl on the dual drive of the power unit, as shown in figure 4a, and turn the bowl clockwise with a slight downward pressure until bowl is firmly seated.

3.Engage the dough hook on the dual drive of the power unit by placing it over the center column, as was done with multifunction blade, in figure 5a. Once in place, check to make sure dough hook has engaged the dual drive by turning the dough hook counterclockwise while pushing down until it stops.

4.Next place the mixing bowl cover on the bowl. Make sure arrows on cover and bowl are aligned, so that tabs on

bowl fit into channels in cover and then turn cover clockwise until tab on cover enters cover interlock and turn until tab clicks into place,

The cover should be in place whenever the power unit is in operation. The cover serves to prevent the escape of flour dust at the beginning of the stirring and kneading process, and also serves to prevent accidental contact with the moving dough hook. Also, the power unit will not operate unless the tab on the cover is in place and has engaged the safety cover interlock.

Placing into Operation with Dough Hook

Make sure that the power unit is on a smooth, clean, suitable work surface and switched to the Off position, “O/Off.” Pull the electrical cord out to the necessary length and plug into a convenient outlet. The mixing bowl with dough hook is now ready for operation. Sample recipes may be found in the recipe section, at the back of this manual.

How to Use Whipping Whisk

All the MCM models comes with the mixing bowl, cover and pusher/measuring cup. The MCM 5200 comes with a whipping whisk, as shown in figure 5f, while the MCM 5100 and 5200 comes with a whipping whisk as shown in figure 5k. Both of these whipping whisks are intended to be used for very light substances, such as cream, egg whites, sauces, batters and light pastry doughs that are thin enough to pour.

The dough hook should be used for all heavier substances such as cookie doughs, yeast doughs, pastry doughs and other heavy doughs. The dough hook should always be used when adding nuts, chocolate chips, dried fruits, hard butter or other fats, hardened brown sugar, etc. to a mixture.
