Your Stand Mixer is adjusted at the factory so the Flat Beater just clears the bottom of the Bowl. If, for any reason, the Flat Beater hits the bottom of the Bowl or is too far away from the Bowl, you can correct clearance easily.

1. Turn Speed Control Lever to off (0). Unplug Stand Mixer.

2. Lift Motor Head. Turn screw slightly counterclockwise (left) to raise Flat Beater or clockwise (right) to lower Flat Beater. Make adjustment with Flat Beater, so it just clears surface of Bowl. If you over adjust the screw, the locking lever may not lock into place.

NOTE: When properly adjusted, the Flat Beater will not strike on the bottom or side of the Bowl. If the Flat Beater or the Wire Whip is so close that it strikes the bottom of the Bowl, coating may wear off the beater or wires on whip may wear.

NOTE: The Stand Mixer may warm up during use. Under heavy loads with extended mixing time, the top of the unit may become hot. This is normal.

1. Plug the Stand Mixer into a proper electrical outlet. Always set Speed Control Lever on lowest speed to start, then gradually increase speed to avoid splashing ingredients. See the “Speed Control Guide” Section.

Do not scrape the Bowl while the Stand Mixer is operating. The Bowl and beater are designed to provide thorough mixing without frequent scraping. Scraping the Bowl once or twice during mixing is usually sufficient.

IMPORTANT: Do not immerse the Stand Mixer body in water or other liquids. Allow the appliance to cool completely before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.

1. Always be sure to unplug Stand Mixer before cleaning. Wipe Stand Mixer with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use household/commercial cleaners. Wipe off Beater Shaft frequently, removing any residue that may accumulate. Do not immerse in water.

2. Dishwasher-safe parts, top rack only: Stainless Steel Flat Beater, Stainless Steel Dough Hook, and Stainless Steel Wire Whip clean them thoroughly in hot sudsy water and rinse completely before drying. Do not store beaters on shaft.

NOTE: Stainless steel accessories are dishwasher-safe.

Before first use, wash with warm soapy water.

IMPORTANT: Do not wash the Wood Bowl in the dishwasher. Wood Bowl is hand washable only. Wash the Wood Bowl with a damp cloth and warm soapy water, using a mild detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Walnut Wood Bowl Care: Wood is a natural material and its appearance may change over time. For best care, please wash Wood Bowl immediately after each use with a non-abrasive scrub brush or cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents when cleaning. Dry thoroughly after washing with a soft, clean towel. Wood Bowl is NOT dishwasher, microwave or oven safe.

For Long Term Care: We recommend treating the Wood Bowl with a food grade commercial wood conditioner such as food safe mineral oil or walnut oil.

IMPORTANT:

Scrubbing too hard may scratch the Wood Bowl finish.

Avoid harsh or abrasive detergents.

Do not use steel wool or steel scouring pads.

Heavy loads should not exceed speed 2. Under heavy loads with extended mixing time periods, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the unit. This is normal.

This is common with electric motors, especially when new.

Stop the Stand Mixer. See the “Beater to Bowl Clearance” section and adjust the beater to bowl clearance.

Is the Stand Mixer plugged in?

Is the fuse in the circuit to the Stand Mixer in working order? If you have a circuit breaker box, be sure the circuit is closed.

Turn off the Stand Mixer for 10-15 seconds, then turn it back on. If the Stand Mixer still does not start, allow it to cool for 30 minutes before turning it back on.
