How to Insert Attachments

Each set of attachments must be inserted into the proper hole in the Mixer Head. They are not interchange- able; there is a right and a left. Beneath the collar is etched a small R or L. This indicates the correct hole to place attachment. The “RIGHT” side of the Mixer is the side with the Sensor Speed control. The beater marked R, with

Push in until attachment locks in place. Then insert the beater marked L, with the rounded bottom. If difficult to insert, turn beater one quarter turn and try again.
