Transmission
To check the oil level, remove the top cover, which is secured by two screws. Remove the Transmission Fill
Plug (Fig. 12) and check the oil level. If the oil level is below the line on the oil dipstick, add a small amount
of the recommended transmission oil until it returns to the proper level. Do not overfi ll the transmission, as
leakage may result. Contact your local Hobart Service Offi ce for the recommended transmission oil.

ADJUSTMENTS
Agitator Clearance
The agitator clearance should be checked periodically. The agitator must not touch the bowl, and the
maximum clearance between the bottom of the bowl and the B fl at beater is 1/8" (3 mm); the maximum
clearance between the bottom of the bowl and the ED dough arm is 5/16" (8 mm) for the HL800 Mixer and
11/16" (17 mm) for the HL1400 Mixer.
Install a bowl and agitator (e.g., beater). If the bowl and beater come into contact before the bowl support
reaches its stop, adjust the stop screw. Refer to Adjust the Bowl/Agitator Clearance, page 25.
