Before using your bench mixer
Before using your bench mixer for the first
time, remove any packaging material and
promotional labels or tags. It is recommended
to wash the mixing bowls, beaters, whisks
and dough hooks in warm soapy water with a
soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Set-up
Before assembling your bench mixer, be sure
the power cord is unplugged from the power
outlet and the speed control dial is in the
'Off' position. Position the bench mixer on a
level, dry surface such as a bench top.
1. Press the 'TILT & LOCK' button, located
on the neck of the bench mixer. While
the button is depressed, hold the handle
(Figure 1) and ease the head of the bench
mixer back. The bench mixer head will lock
into this tilt position (Figure 2).
2. Select the desired mixing attachments
depending on the mixing task to be
performed:
– Beaters for creaming butter and sugar,
whisking cream or egg whites plus mixing
heavy cake mixes.
– Whisks for light batters and packet cake
mixes.
– Dough hooks for kneading dough and other
heavy mixtures.
3. Insert selected attachment:
Beaters
– Take the beater that has
a pointier, curved bottom and has
a grey coloured band around the
top of the beater – illustrated as beater
(A)
. Insert beater
(A)
into the left socket on
the underside of the mixer head, the hole
is identified by a grey dot beside it (Figure
3). Take the beater with the angular/flat
bottom, illustrated as beater

and insert
into the remaining socket.
Note:
Be sure both beaters click firmly in
place, you may need to twist the beater
slightly to engage it in position prior to
pushing it in place.
