The mixer should be thoroughly cleaned daily.

The transmission case and planetary mechanism should be inspected weekly for
leaks, damage, etc. Should it become necessary to repack the ball bearings, an

under heavy usage. Disconnect the unit from the power supply before removing the
top housing or apron. The drip cup (Figure 1-4) or safety guard should be inspected
periodically for moisture or lubricant dripping. Remove the cup and wipe it with a soft
cloth.
