Standard Accessories

Item	Description	Qty	Weight
1	Flat Beater	1	1.5 lbs.
2	Dough Hook	1	1.5 lbs.
3	Wisk	1	2.1 Ibs.
4	Bowl	1	5.2 Ibs.

All of the accessories are precisely fitted to the bowl, have rounded corners, and are easily removable for cleaning.

Operation Instructions

Please ensure that your power supply matches your machine
For changing the speed: Please stop the machine first before changing speed in order to avoid damage to the gear box.
Mixing: Always use the correct attachment for the job.

	A. Wisk: Suitable for mixing liquids and soft ingredients, can work in all speeds. Do not run for more than 15 minutes.
	B. Flat Beater: Suitable for mixing dry ingredients, can work in low & medium speeds only. Do not use in high speed. Do not run for more than 15 minutes.
	C. Dough Hook: Suitable for mixing dough, can work in low & medium speeds only. Do not use in high speed, do not run for more than 20 minutes. The absorption ratio must be more than 50%. Refer to mixer capacity chart.

Mixer Capacity Chart

Product	Agitator and Speed	Maximum Bowl Capacity
Bread and Roll Dough -60 % AR	Dough Hook – 1st only	5 lb.
Heavy Bread Dough -55% AR	Dough Hook – 1st only	3 lb.
Pizza Dough, Thin -40% AR	Not Recommended	–
Pizza Dough, Medium -50% AR	Not Recommended	–
Pizza Dough, Thick -60% AR	Not Recommended	–
Raised Donut Dough -65% AR	Dough Hook – 1st and 2nd	2 lb.
Mashed Potatoes	Flat Beater	5 lb.
Waffle or Hot Cake Batter	Flat Beater	4 qt.
Egg Whites	Wire Whisk	1 pt.
Whipped Cream	Wire Whisk	1 qt.
Cake Batter	Flat Beater	8 lb.

When mixing dough (pizza, bread or bagels), check your “AR” absorption ratio – water weight divided by flour weight.
Above capacities based on 12% flour moisture at 70°F water temperature. If high gluten flour is used, reduce above dough batch size by 10%.
Example: If recipe calls for 5 lb. of water and 10 lb. of flour, then 5 divided by 10 = 0.50 x 100 = 50 %AR.

2nd Speed should never be used on mixtures with less than 50% AR.
Do not use attachments on hub while mixing.
When calculating the correct size mixer for your application, here are some helpful weights & measures:
8.3 lb. = 1 gallon of water – 2.08 lb. = 1 Quart.

Cleaning

WARNING: DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE CLEANING
All new mixer bowls and accessories including whips, beaters, and dough hooks should be properly washed before use.
Wash with hot water and a mild soap solution and then rinse off with either a mild vinegar or soda solution and then rinse again with clean water. It is highly recommended this cleaning procedure is followed for bowls and accessories prior to whipping egg whites or whole eggs. The mixer should be cleaned daily with a clean damp cloth.
If the unit has not been used for some time, it is recommended that the procedure above is followed before mixer use. It is important that the rear bowl lift guides are greased every three months to prevent corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Trouble	Possible Causes	Solution
The axles can’t work when operating the machine	Poor contact of the electrical equipment	Check the Plug
The mixing bowl is out of position	Moving direction is not correct	Change
Leaks oil	The sealing washer is damaged	Change
Difficult to move the bowl up and down	Slideway is rusted	Clean the slideway and lubricate
The motor is overheated and speed is down	The voltage is not enough, or the incorrect speed	Check the voltage or use lower speed
Noise and overheating	Poor lubrication	Add or change lubrication
Mixer touches bowl	The mixing device or bowl deformed	Repair or change the bowl or mixing device
