Speed Buttons
Use the “On” button for all light, airy foods and for small
amounts.
Use the “Turbo” Speed button for thicker or harder
ingredients and for larger amounts. Do not run your blender
for more than 1 minute at a time.
Mixing
Dip your L’EQUIP Stick Blender into the ingredients at an
angle and blend. Switch it off before removing to prevent
splashing. While blending, hold the top of the beaker with
your free hand for better control.
Whipping
Rest the Stick Blender on the bottom of the beaker for
a few seconds, then hold at an angle and slowly draw
it upwards against the side of the beaker. When the
ingredients are no longer drawn with it, go back to the
bottom and repeat the process until the ingredients are at
the desired consistency.
Blending
Use a light swiveling wrist motion in processing. Draw the
blender up slightly and let it fall again onto the ingredients.
Do not press or pound. The fineness of your results will
depend on the length of processing.
Grinder
Grates and finely chops ingredients such as herbs, spices,
grains, cereals, chocolate, cheese, coffee beans, onions,
garlic, hard boiled eggs, nuts (including almonds), sugar (for
powdered sugar) and bread (for bread crumbs). It works as
an efficient food processor for salsas, pesto, nut butters and
more. Chocolate should be firm when ground. Do not overfill
grinder. Always use on turbo speed.
French Whisk
Designed to beat and aerate. Quickly whips eggs and creams.
Can be used in almost any recipe that calls for whipping or
whisking. It can also be used in any bowl or pot, (even on the
stovetop), for stocks, sauces, puddings, and soups.

Putting on and Changing Accessories
• Always unplug the appliance before changing accessories.
• Connect the accessory by aligning with body/motor base. Twist
lock into place. Remove the accessory by untwisting. To connect
blades, line up slot on blade with nub on drive post and push.
• With time and repeated use, the blades may become loose and no
longer fit on the drive post tightly. You can fix this by gently pressing
the top of the blade, where it connects to the drive post, together
with pliers.
Cleaning and Care
Always clean the appliance after use to prevent the drive shaft from
clogging.
• Motor base/body should not be placed in water.
• Grinder should be cleaned by removing from motor base. Lid must
be hand washed. Grinder bowl and processor blades may be put in
dishwasher.
• French whisk should be cleaned by removing from motor base and
hand washed only.
• Blender accessory, (shaft and foot), may be cleaned by removing
from motor base and hand washing or placing under running water.
The blender accessory may also be cleaned by submerging in warm
water and pressing the “on” button. Caution – keep water level
below motor base level.
• Blades are dishwasher safe.
• Your blender will perform better and longer if you oil it every few
months. Use a food grade oil. Hold the blender with the foot facing
you and put 2-3 drops of oil on the drive post. Switch the appliance
on and let it run for 10-20 seconds. Then rinse the drive post in hot
water.
