GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The Mix’n Machine combines a durable motor with different styles of agitators. By rapidly
moving the cup up and around the agitator, a thorough mixing job can be accomplished.
Some combinations may take more time depending on additives, product temperature,
technique, and desired consistency of finished product. Due to the difference of recipes,
your results may also vary.
Programmable Model
The basic settings of the six PRE-SET buttons for the Mix’n Machine Advance
Programmable Model are detailed below. These programs, numbered 1 through 6, are
blending cycles designed for the most commonly made desserts. Selecting one of the
PRE-SET programs will run the machine for a full cycle. The machine will stop by itself
when the cycle is complete. A cycle varies in speed and length. Your machine’s PRESET
options may differ due to program revisions or if your machine was programmed
specifically for your business.
Note:
A 3-second delay is added to the end of each program’s run time to
allow time for the operator to remove the cup from the agitator before a
new program is selected.

Mix’n Machine Blending Procedures
1. Put product (ice cream, yogurt, etc.) into a sturdy serving
cup along with ingredients such as liquid flavoring, and
mix-ins such as candy, cookies, fruit or other condiments.
2.
For units with a Removable Agitator:
push the
agitator up onto the shaft until it snaps into place.
3. Plug the machine into the nearest outlet (if unplugged).
4. Place a cup guard on the cup (See Figure 1). Hold the cup
(and lid or collar) securely in your hand (from the side, not
from the bottom) and reach under the splash guard. Move
the cup under the agitator and lift up so the agitator
touches the bottom of the cup. See Figure 2.
5. Turn the machine ON to activate the agitator. Follow
instructions based on the specific model:
•
For Mix’n Machine Advance Programmable Model:
Press the ON/OFF power switch to ON. Activate a
program by selecting the desired setting on the dial.
While holding the cup securely in your hand, use your
fingers to push the START Actuator (located behind
the agitator) to activate a programmed blending cycle.
See Figure 3.
•
For Mix’n Machine Advance Timer Model:
Press the ON/OFF power switch to ON. While holding
the cup securely in your hand, use your fingers to push
the START Actuator (located behind the agitator) to
activate a pre-set timed blending cycle. See Figure 3.
•
For Mix’n Machine Advance Variable Speed Model:
Select the desired setting on the SPEED dial. While
holding the cup securely in one hand, use the other
hand to press the ON/OFF power switch to ON to
activate the agitator. Depending on ingredients, start
on a lower setting, then switch to a higher setting once
the mixture begins processing.
•
For Mix’n Machine Standard Model (Countertop
and Wall Mount):
While holding the cup securely in
one hand, use the other hand to press the ON/OFF
power switch to ON to activate the agitator.
6. With a swirling motion, gradually move the cup up and down
around the spinning agitator and completely around all sides
of the cup. (If ice cream is hard, this should be done slowly.)
Develop your own technique for the desired consistency
of the finished product. The agitator will do some chipping
and breaking of the solids. However, it is not intended to
completely pulverize ingredients as solid chunks are
expected to be evident in the final product. See Figure 4.
