up The beaters are dishwasher safe.
Handle
The handle has been designed for comfort to prevent fatigue of the hand during heavy or long mixing
tasks.
Using Your Hand/Stand Mixer
using your mixer for the first time, wash the beaters in hot/soapy water, or the dishwasher. Rinse
and dry.
Be sure speed control is in the “OFF” or “0” position and unplugged from an electrical outlet. Insert
beaters one at a time, by placing stem end of beaters into the opening on the bottom of the mixer. Turn
beater slightly and push in until beater clicks into position. Plug cord into 120 volt, 60 Hz, A.C.
electrical outlet.
Although your mixer is much more convenient to use on a stand, it is not designed to be used for
heavy mixing, or recipes calling for more than 3 l/2 cups of flour. This may cause overheating and
possibly motor damage.
Mixing:
When using as a handmixer, slowly guide mixer around sides and through center of bowl, going in the
same direction. Be careful not to overbeat the mixture. Overbeating tends to make some mixtures
tough.
Ingredients should be added to the mixing bowl as they are specified in the recipe. When combining
wet and dry ingredients, you may wish to moisten ingredients on low speed, then turn to the desired
speed as specified in the mixing guide.
Whenever scraping of the bowl is required, stop the mixer and scrape sides and bottom of bowl with a
rubber spatula as needed. Turn speed control to “OFF” or ‘0” and rest mixer on its heel rest or on the
stand while adding ingredients. Be sure to position beaters over mixing bowl so any drippings will fall
back into mixing bowl.
When mixing is complete, set speed control to “l”, raise beaters slowly from batter to clean off
clinging food. Be sure to turn unit to “0” before raising beaters completely out of mixing bowl.
Hand Mixer on a Stand:
Attach the hand mixer to the stand by tilting the cradle back and inserting the mounting tabs on the
stand into the holes on the bottom of the mixer and sliding back to snap. To remove the mixer from the
stand, tilt the cradle back and keep hand under the cradle for support, snap the mixer forward and lift
off the stand without turning or twisting.
NOTE: The mixing bowl provided with this mixer is not heat resistant glass and
should not be placed in the oven. Always transfer the ingredients to a baking

dish or pan designed for oven use.
volumes of hot liquids or to mash potatoes while still hot.
Dough Hooks:
The dough hooks must go into the correct sockets. Although the mixer will operate, the dough could
“travel” up the hooks. This will not provide the correct kneading action and could risk ruining a recipe
or damaging your mixer.
Insert one at a time, by placing the dough hook with the curved foot into the left socket at the bottom of
the mixer. Insert the straight end hook into the right socket. When using the dough hooks, USE THE
HAND MIXER OFF THE STAND. ONLY USE SPEEDS 1 OR 2.
