LEARNING ABOUT YOUR HAND MIXER
The OSTER® Hand Mixer has been designed to assist you in preparing delicious foods.
BURST OF POWER® FEATURE
The BURST OF POWER® feature allows for an added boost to the selected speed setting at the press of the button. During especially heavy mixing tasks, press the button
to drive through the mixture with ease. Once the button is released, the mixer will return to the original speed setting.
BEATER EJECT BUTTON
This OSTER® Hand Mixer features a large and conveniently located beater eject button. The design allows for a smooth push of the thumb to release the beaters or dough hooks.
There will not be a noticeable “click”.
BEATERS
The beater design allows for thorough, fast mixing results for all types of batters. The beaters are dishwasher safe.
DOUGH HOOKS
Use these hooks to knead bread dough, pizza dough or other heavy batters and doughs. Use at lower speeds for best results.
WHISK
The whisk is used to beat air into mixtures such as egg whites, yolks or cream. (Model 2527 only) The whisk can be inserted into either drive hole.
COMFORT HANDLE
The handle has been designed for comfort to prevent hand fatigue during heavy or long mixing tasks.
USING YOUR HAND MIXER
Before using your mixer for the first time, wash the beaters in hot/soapy water, or the dishwasher. Rinse and dry.
Be sure speed control is in the “OFF” or “0” position and unplugged from an electrical outlet. Insert beaters one at a time, by placing stem end of beaters into the opening drive holes on the bottom of the mixer. Turn beater slightly and push in until beater clicks into position.
When using the optional dough hooks, the dough hook with the collar on the stem fits into the larger drive hole (on the side of the mixer with the OSTER® name). The dough hook without the collar fits into the smaller drive hole.
MIXING
Turn mixer on and refer to speed guide for correct setting. Slowly guide mixer around sides and through center of bowl, going in the same direction. Be careful not to overbeat the mixture. Overbeating tends to make some mixtures tough. Whenever scraping of the bowl is required, stop the mixer and scrape sides and bottom of bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Turn speed control to “OFF” or “0” and rest mixer on its heel rest while adding ingredients. Be sure to position beaters over mixing bowl so any drippings will fall back into mixing bowl. When mixing is complete, set speed control to “1”, and raise beaters slowly from batter to clean off clinging food. Be sure to turn unit to “0” before raising beaters completely out of mixing bowl.
BURST OF POWER® FEATURE
The BURST OF POWER® feature allows for an added boost to the selected speed setting at the press of the button. During especially heavy mixing tasks, press the button to drive through the mixture with ease. Once the button
is released, the mixer will return to the original speed setting.
EJECTING BEATERS, DOUGH HOOKS OR WHISK
Be sure speed control is at the “OFF” or “0” position and cord is removed from electrical outlet. Scrape off any excess batter with a rubber spatula.
Grasp the stems of the beaters with your hand and press the beater eject button. Beaters will release into your hand.
