The attachment is designed to make this process easy. The attachment is removed by simply pulling it off from the stub. For protection please use a cloth.

Careful: For safety's sake, when you exchange the attachments always pull out the plug.

Applications/handling

Wrist movement

Whilst processing, use a light swivelling motion from the wrist, draw bamix up a little and let it fall again on the ingredients (do not press or pound). The fineness of the result depends on the length of processing.

Drawing up

Rest the bamix for a few seconds on the bottom of the jug. Then hold it at an angle and draw it up slowly against the side of the jug. When the ingredients no longer are drawn with it, put it back on the bottom and repeat the process until the ingredients are whipped to the required stiffness.

Blending

Dip bamix at an angle in the ingredients, switch it on and blend. Before removing the appliance from the ingredients, switch it off to prevent splashing.

Tip: Whilst working, hold your free hand over the top of the jug to prevent ingredients spraying out.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning is very easy. Remove the attachment and clean it. It is enough to clean the chromium-plated part of the appliance after every use under running water (do not switch on). The easiest way to clean off bits of food which have stuck to bamix is to hold it in a jug with hot water and switch it on. Take care that the switch does not come in contact with water.

Important: Clean the appliance as soon as you have finished working, to prevent the drive shaft getting clogged.

What can be done...

if the drive shaft of your appliance no longer rotates?

When you have not used your appliance for some time, the drive shaft may get stuck due to minute foodstuff residues which have hardened and are now gumming up the lower shaft bearing. Place the operative part of the appliance for 5 to 10 minutes in a jug with hot water, then switch it on. In general the appliance will then work again; if not, just try to free the shaft carefully with pliers.
