The Scraper Beater can be used for a variety of mixing tasks.
Due to the efficient mixing action of the Scraper Beater, the mixing time of many recipes will
be reduced. Refer to the chart below for approximate mixing times. These are a guide only.
Longer mixing times may be required for larger or double quantities.

TIPS
•
When adding flour to the mixing bowl,
always use the pouring shield and ensure
the mixer is on the FOLD setting.
This will prevent flour from escaping the
mixing bowl.
•
The Scraper Beater can also be used as
a spatula when removing mixtures from the
mixing bowl.
Attaching the bowl
1. Place the mixer on a level, dry bench top.
The mixer motor head should be in the
horizontal (closed) position when moving.
2. When lowering or lifting the mixer, always
support the motor head with your other
hand to prevent it from free-falling.
3. To remove or insert the mixing bowl,
the mixer motor head must be raised
and locked into the open position.
Raise the mixer motor head by pressing
the RELEASE button.
4. Lift the motor head up until it tilts back and
locks into the open position.
5. Insert the bowl into the bowl locking recess
and turn clockwise until the bowl locks
securely into place.
Assembly
Before first use
Before using your mixer for the first time,
remove any packaging material and
promotional labels. Ensure the speed
control dial is in the OFF position, the
mixer is switched off at the power outlet
and the power cord is unplugged.
Wash bowl and mixing tools in warm
soapy water with a soft cloth. Rinse and
dry thoroughly.
The bowl and the attachments may be
washed in the dishwasher.
When first using your appliance, you may
notice an odour coming from the motor.
This is normal and will dissipate with use.
