MIXING
This section explains operation of the mixer and how to install bowls and
agitators.
BOWL
New mixer bowls and agitators (beaters, whips, spiral dough hook, ingredi-
ent chute and splash cover) should be thoroughly washed with hot water and
a mild soap solution, rinsed with either a mild soda or vinegar solution, and
thoroughly rinsed with clear water before being put into service. This clean-
Fig. 3
ing procedure should also be followed for bowls and agitators before whipping egg whites or whole
eggs.
The bowl must be installed before the agitator. To install the bowl, fully lower the bowl support (Fig. 3).
30 QT/40 QT Mixer - Auto Lock Feature - Position the bowl so two large holes on bowl tabs are above
the bowl pins on the bowl support. Lower the bowl onto the bowl pins. Then lift the bowl arm to raise the
bowl. Bowl will be locked when it is raised to mix position.
30 QT Mixer - Twist Lock Feature - Lower the bowl onto the bowl pins, then turn counter-clockwise until
stopped in locked position.
AGITATOR
To install an agitator (Fig. 4), the bowl must be installed and fully lowered. Place the agitator in the bowl,
push it up on the agitator shaft, and turn it clockwise to seat the shaft pin in the slot of the agitator shank.
Fig. 4
Close bowl guard/wire cage and raise bowl support to mix position, move the speed select knob to the
desired speed and start the mixer to operate the attachment. If bowl support is lowered off the mix
position, mixer will stop.
ATTACHMENTS
To install an attachment, loosen the thumb screw on the attachment hub (Fig.1, page 5) and remove
the plug. Insert the attachment into the attachment hub making certain that the square shank of the at-
tachment is in the square driver of the mixer. Secure the attachment by tightening the thumb screw.
The meat and food chopper attachment must be operated in Speed 1. If material in the cylinder stalls
the mixer, stop the mixer at once. Do not attempt to restart the mixer in a lower speed. Unplug power
cord and then remove the adjusting ring, knife, plate, and worm and clear the obstruction. This attach-
ment must not be used to chop bread crumbs.
Attachment hub must not be used while mixing product.

both hands and pull downward gently to release from retainer (Fig. 5).
