PRODUCT ASSEMBLY
Turn the Stand Mixer to "0" (OFF) and then Unplug.
To attach the Bowl: Fit the Bowl
Supports over Locating Pins and press down on back of the Bowl until Bowl Pin snaps into Spring Latch.

Test the Beater to Bowl Clearance: Turn Stand Mixer ON and test each speed, making sure the beater does not touch the Bowl during operation. If the Beater is too far away from the bottom or is hitting the Bowl, proceed to next step to make adjustments.
PRODUCT ASSEMBLY
(OPTIONAL) To adjust Beater to Bowl Cearance: Lower the Bowl to the down position. Turn the screw slightly counterclockwise (left) to raise the beater, or clockwise (right) to lower it. Adjust the beater so that it just clears the surface of the Bowl. Check again the clearance of the beater to the Bowl.
IMPORTANT: When properly adjusted, the Flat Beater will not strike on the bottom or sides 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 the whip may wear.

Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
| PROBLEM SOLUTION | |
| If Stand Mixer warms up during use: | Under heavy loads with extended mixing time periods, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the Stand Mixer. This is normal. |
| If Stand Mixer emits a pungent odor during initial use: | This is normal. This is common with electric motors. |
| If the Flat Beater hits the Bowl: | Stop the Stand Mixer. See the "Product Assembly" section and adjust the Beater to Bowl Clearance. |
| The Speed Control Lever does not move smoothly or easily: | To move the Speed Control Lever with ease, lift slightly up as you move it across the settings in either direction. |
| If your Stand Mixer should fail to operate, please check the following: | Is the Stand Mixer plugged in? |
| Is the fuse in the circuit to the Stand Mixer in working order? If you have a circuit breaker box, be sure the circuit is closed. | |
| Turn off the Stand Mixer for 10-15 seconds, then turn it back on. If the Stand Mixer still does not start, allow it to cool for 30 minutes before turning it back on. | |
| If product shuts off after extensive use: | Motor has automatic sensor that will keep motor from overheating by shutting it off. If this occurs, turn speed switch to off and let Stand Mixer rest for 30 minutes before restarting. |
| If mixer is slowing down or appearing to struggle: | Are you using the appropriate beater and speed? See "Accessory/Speed Guide" for more information. Using 1/2 Speed or Speed 1 for bread doughs and heavy loads might slow down the unit. Breads should knead with the dough hook at Speed 2. If you have slowdown with heavy loads at 1/2 Speed, increase to Speed 1 or 2. |
| If the problem cannot be corrected: | See the "Warranty and Service" section. Do not return the Stand Mixer to the retailer; retailers do not provide service. |
