BEATER TO BOWL CLEARANCE

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.

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.

Turn Speed Control Lever to off (O).

Unplug Stand Mixer.

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 Bowl lock lever

may not lock into place.

To place Pouring Shield*: Turn Speed

Control Lever to off (0). Unplug Stand
