MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Operators have their own pet ways of operating their mixing machines, so no attempt will be made to set up
iron clad instructions, but there are certain general principles that should be followed in the various operations. These
general principles as listed below should be helpful to old and new operators.
GENERAL POINTS FOR PROPER OPERATION
NOTE: Refer to Mixing Chart before filling bowl.
1. Always start with the bowl in its lowest position.
NOTE: When mashing potatoes, kneading dough, or any operation of a similar nature, it is
adviseable to start the beating with the bowl at its lowest position and as the potatoes or
other ingredients break up, the bowl should be gradually raised to its working position. This
procedure eliminates severe strain to the mixer and consequently adds to its life and
efficiency.
2. In general, start all mixing at slow speed.
3. Gradually raise bowl and its contents to working position.
4. Always return to the neture position when finishing a mix. ±
5. Bowl should be filled to at least half capacity for best results.
6. Make sure that bowl-to-beater clearance is about 1/8". Place a 1/8" layer of paper on
bottom of bowl to check bowl-to-beater clearance. See instructions on how to raise or
lower the beater lock should adjustment be necessary for proper bowl-to beater
clearance.
WHIPPING CREAM
The "W" wire whip (refer to Beaters 6 Whip chart) should be used for whipping cream. Cream to be
whipped should be 24 hours old, should contain 30% butter fat and should be well chilled, in fact near freezing
temperature is desirable, since the cooler the cream, the better the whipping. Warm cream may turn into butter
instead of whipped cream.
To prevent splashing out of the bowl. start whipping the
cream at slow speed and increase the speed as the cream thickens or use a "bowl splash cover" attachment on
the bowl.
EGG WHITES
Use the "W" wire whip and be sure that the eggs are at room temperature and that both the mixing bowl and
"W" wire whip are free from all traces of fact or oil, or egg whites won't whip. In some installations one bowl will be
kept and used exclusively for the oily type mixes. Start beating the eggs at low speed and gradually increase the
speed.
