Step 6
While holding the cup securely in your hand, use
your fingers to push the switch rod (actuator),
located behind the agitator, to activate a
programmed blending cycle.

Step 7
Using a swirling motion, gradually move the cup up
and down around the spinning agitator and
completely around all sides of the cup. (If the
product is hard, this should be done slowly.)
The agitator will do some chipping and breaking of
the solids. However, it is not intended to completely
pulverize ingredients. Solid chunks are expected to
be evident in the finished product.

Notes:
SIf the cup is hard to hold, either move the
agitator into the mix more slowly or start
with softer product. Do not continue to
operate the mixer if the cup is too hard to
hold.
SThe agitator is designed to reduce the
possibility of damage when contacting a
paper cup. However, the agitator should not
be forced or held solidly against the side or
bottom of the cup. The hard product agitator
is specially designed to mix the product
aggressively and thoroughly, so use a cup
holder or a sturdy cup to prevent the agitator
from going through the side of the cup.
Step 8
Swirl the cup around the agitator to produce a
pleasing product appearance and to avoid leaving a
hole in the center of the mixture. Before removing
the cup, allow the excess mixture to be thrown off
the agitator and caught by the cup.
The machine shuts off automatically at the end of
the programmed cycle. When the programis within
4 seconds of completion, a tone will sound, so
preparation can begin to remove the cup from the
agitator. The tone gets progressively faster to
indicate that the program cycle is almost complete
and the machine will shut off. This allows the
operator the opportunity to spin off excess produc t
from the agitator.
Step 9
Place the power switch in the OFF position when the
machine is not in use.
