Using Your Mixer  
How to Assemble the Stand Mixer  
Before assembling the Mixer, make sure the speed control dial is in the OFF  
position and the electric cord is unplugged.  
Attaching the Turntable  
To assure the proper positioning of the mixing bowl with relation to the beaters, the  
turntable has two positions. Before adjusting the turntable, decide which bowl will be  
used. To adjust the turntable, remove it from the base. There are icons on the base  
depicting a large (stainless steel)bowl and a small (glass)bowl. Place the turntable in  
the hole with the icon corresponding to the bowl that will be used.  
Attaching the Mixer Head  
To attach the mixing head, press in on the Mixer release trigger, located at the rear  
of the stand.  
Place the Mixer head on the stand so that the metal pivot on the bottom of the  
Mixer head goes into the latched opening on the top of the stand.  
As you release pressure from the Mixer-release trigger, the top of the latch should  
clamp around the metal pivot. Once the mixing head is lowered into position, it  
will lock into place.  
To tilt the mixing head, upward, press the head lock button inward while pulling up  
on the handle of the mixing head.  
NOTE: This Mixer is NOT intended for use away from the stand.

Adding the Mixing Bowl  
When using the large bowl, the turntable should be placed in the off-center position,  
where the large bowl icon is located. Similarly, when using the small bowl, the turntable  
should be placed in the center position where the small bowl icon is located.  
Mixing bowls should NEVER be used in a conventional oven, microwave oven, on  
top of the range or on any other heated surface. If mixing bowls are scratched or  
chipped, do not use. Mixer bowl should not be used to blend in hot liquids.  
Inserting the Beaters  
NOTE: It is important that the beaters go into the correct sockets. Otherwise the  
Mixer will not give you the proper mixing action. Do not risk ruining a recipe or  
damaging your Mixer. Read the following instructions carefully.  
1. Make sure the Mixer is unplugged and speed control dial is set to 0 (OFF) position.  
Lift Mixer head up and back to pull it out of the way of the bowl.  
The beater with the small washer (has a plastic button on the bottom) goes into the  
socket on the side of the mixer nearest the side of the bowl. The beater with the  
larger washer (square-shaped) goes into the socket nearest the center of the bowl.  
Because each beater only fits in it’s proper socket, please follow the above instructions  
when you inserting beaters. Please refer to the icons beside the sockets.  
1. Small Washer Beater  
2. Big Washer Beater  
2. Insert the beaters one at a time by aligning the notches on the beater with the  
slots on the Mixer head. Use a combination of pressing and twisting motion until  
the beaters snap into position.  
If a beater should not properly snap into place, pull it out of the socket and rotate it  
one quarter turn. Reinsert the beater into the socket until it snaps into position.

Inserting Dough Hooks  
NOTE: The dough hooks must go into the correct sockets. The Mixer will operate  
with the dough hooks in the wrong position. However, you will not get proper  
kneading action and you could risk ruining a recipe. Read the following  
instructions carefully.  
1. Make sure Mixer is unplugged and speed control dial is set to OFF. Lift Mixer  
head up and back to tilt it out of the way of the bowl, while holding it in an  
upright position.  
2. The dough hook with the small washer and foot goes into the socket on the side  
of the Mixer nearest the side of the bowl. The other dough hook with the large  
washer goes into the socket nearest the center of the bowl. Insert the dough hooks  
one at a time by aligning the notches on the hooks with the slots on the Mixer  
head. Use a combination of pressing and twisting motions until the dough hooks  
snap into position. Please refer to the icons beside the sockets.

Operating Instructions  
ABOUT THE SPEED CONTROL DIAL  
The speed control dial is used for turning the Mixer ON and OFF and for selecting  
its 12 mixing speeds.  
Rotate the speed control dial in a clockwise direction to increase mixing speed; and  
in a counterclockwise direction to decrease mixing speed.  
As you rotate the speed control dial, notice that a numbered speed is aligned with  
the indicator on top of the Mixer head. This numbered speed indicates the speed  
at which the Mixer is operating.  
Rotate the speed control dial until the indicator is opposite the numbered speed  
you wish to use.  
POWER BOOST FEATURE  
NOTE: Do not use Power Boost for more than two minutes at a time or motor  
may overheat.  
Press down on the Power Boost button located beside the top handle to automatically  
increase the beater speed by 200 RPM for an immediate boost of power.  
HEAD LOCK FEATURE  
The head lock feature locks the mixing head in the down position for added control  
while mixing and locks it in the up position for added convenience while cleaning.  
To unlock, press in on the head lock button located on the side of the stand.

Caring For Your Mixer  
EJECTING THE BEATERS OR DOUGH HOOKS  
After you’ve finished mixing, turn the speed control dial to OFF and unplug the  
electric cord from the electrical outlet. Push the ejector button located beside the  
handle to remove beaters or dough hooks.  
Scrape excess batter off the beaters using a rubber or plastic spatula. Do not strike  
beaters on the rim of the bowl.  
Cleaning Your Mixer  
1. Always turn off and unplug Mixer from electrical outlet before ejecting the  
attachments.  
2. Wash attachments in hot, soapy water; rinse and dry.  
3. Wipe the Mixer body and cord with a clean, damp cloth.  
NOTES:  
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads as they may mar the finish of the Mixer.  
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not immerse the Mixer body or cord in  
water or other liquid.  
• Beaters and bowls may also be washed in an automatic dishwasher.  
Storing Your Mixer  
Store the Mixer in a dry location, such as on a countertop or table top, or in a closet  
or cupboard. Insert the beaters into the proper sockets. Place the dough hooks in  
the mixing bowl.  
Store the bowl(s) on the turntable. The beaters will help hold the bowl in position.

does not require any additional lubricant. Other than the recommended cleaning,  
no further user maintenance should be necessary. There are no user serviceable  
component in this Mixer. Do not attempt to disassemble.  
Helpful Hints  
MIXING AND BAKING SUGGESTIONS  
• Ingredients should be added to the mixing bowl as they are specified in the recipe.  
When combining dry and wet ingredients, you may wish to moisten ingredients on  
Speed 1 or 2, then turn to the desired mixing speed.  
• Use the mixing speed that is recommended in the recipe. Use the handy mixing  
guide on the speed control dial of the Mixer to help you find the correct speed  
to use.  
• If times are specified in the recipe, use them. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVER MIX.  
Over mixing can cause the mixture to become very tough.  
• Should an object, such as a spatula, fall into the bowl while the Mixer is operating,  
turn the mixer OFF immediately. Then, remove the object.  
• Remove beaters and place in sink for easy clean up.  
DO NOT exceed 3-1/2 cups of flour in any recipe as this will exceed the capacity  
of several unit components and may cause the motor to overheat.  
Breads  
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING KNEADED BREADS  
When making kneaded breads, your Mixer will require more care than when making  
ordinary mixtures, such as cake batter and cookie dough. The elasticity of the bread  
dough and the shape of the dough hooks may cause your Mixer to do some unusual  
things.  
The bowl may tend to rock back and forth. We suggest that you guide the outside of  
the bowl with one hand to help control the rocking action. AVOID GETTING YOUR  
HANDS TOO NEAR THE DOUGH HOOKS.  
The kneading action may cause the Mixer to slide on a slippery work surface. Be  
sure the work surface and rubber feet on the bottom of the Mixer are clean and dry.  
CAUTION: DO NOT use the mixer too near the edge of a table or counter top,  
where it could fall off.

Using Dough Hooks  
DO NOT LEAVE YOUR MIXER UNATTENDED WHILE USING THE DOUGH HOOKS.  
Ingredients should be added to the mixing bowl as they are specified in the recipe.  
Combine a small portion of the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients. Mix on  
Speed 6. Continue adding dry ingredients until the mixture becomes sticky, then  
turn to Speed 1. Gradually add remaining dry ingredients.  
If there is high humidity in the air, it may be necessary to add additional flour to the  
recipe. The high humidity could also extend the amount of time necessary for baking.  
Guide the mixing bowl with your hands. Use caution to keep hands out of the way  
of the dough hooks.  
DO NOT attempt to scrape the bowl while the Mixer is operating. Stop the Mixer  
and scrape the sides of the bowl as necessary. Use a rubber or plastic spatula only.  
DO NOT attempt to feed dough into the dough hooks with your hands, a spatula  
or any other utensil while the Mixer is plugged into an outlet or in operation.  
If times are specified in the recipe, use them. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVER MIX.  
Over mixing can cause the mixture to become tough. We suggest the maximum  
mixing time should be 6-8 minutes.  
Should an object, such as a spatula, fall into the bowl while the mixer is operation,  
turn the mixer OFF immediately. Then remove the object. Remove dough hooks  
and place in sink for easy clean up.  
DOUGH RISING TIPS  
A large, well-greased, glass mixing bowl is an excellent container in which to raise  
yeast dough. The ideal temperature is 85°F/30°C in an area that is draft free. Cover  
with a light cloth. The final rising should be after the dough has been shaped and  
placed on a greased baking sheet or pan recommended in the recipe. Again, cover  
the rising dough and place in a warm, draft-free area. If you live in a high altitude  
area, yeast breads will require a shorter rising time. Allow the dough to rise only  
until it has doubled in size. Slightly less flour should be used because flour is dryer  
at higher altitudes.
