The TIMER is used in conjunction with the START button for timed mixing operations
and will stop the mixer when a preset time has elapsed.
For timed mixing — Place the clutch lever on STOP and set the gear shift lever at the
desired speed. Set the timer at the desired time and press the START button to start
the motor. Move the clutch lever to RUN to start mixing. (Clutch Lever and Gear Shift
Lever are described below under CHANGING SPEEDS.)
For non-timed mixing — Place the clutch on STOP and set the gear shift lever at the
desired speed. Set the timer on HOLD. Press the START button to start the motor and
move the clutch lever to RUN to start mixing. To stop the mixer, move the clutch lever
to STOP and press the STOP button.
CHANGING SPEEDS.
The Clutch Lever is used when changing speeds. Moving the Clutch Lever to STOP
disengages the clutch and activates a brake which stops the planetary. The motor will
continue to run with the Clutch Lever on STOP unless the STOP button is pressed.
The Gear Shift Lever is used to change speeds. To change speeds, disengage the
clutch by moving the Clutch Lever to STOP. The brake is automatically actuated. When
the agitator shaft has stopped, move the Gear Shift Lever to the desired speed. Make
sure the Gear Shift Lever lines up with the number on the shifter plate — never position
the handle between numbers. Place the Clutch Lever on RUN to continue operation.
POWER BOWL LIFT.
Before lowering the bowl onto a bowl truck, always unlock both bowl
clamps.
The Power Bowl Lift Lever is used to raise or lower the bowl while the motor is running.
The Wire Cage Assembly must be in the front-center position. If the Clutch Lever is in
the RUN position, the Planetary and Agitator will be mixing at the speed indicated by the
position of the Gear Shift Lever (this may be required by recipe). If the Clutch Lever is
on STOP, the Planetary and Agitator will not be mixing. The Electro-Mechanical Timer
will allow the mixer to operate if it is on HOLD or if time is set on the timer. Press and
hold the START button and move the Power Bowl Lift Lever clockwise to raise the bowl
or counterclockwise to lower it. An overload slip clutch will ratchet at the top and bottom
stop positions to signal end of travel and protect the operating mechanism.
On new machines, the power bowl lift lever may need to be manually returned to the
center neutral position until parts are broken-in.
