Operating Instructions
CORRECT USE OF THE MIXER
-
It is the responsibility of the operators to use the mixer correctly within the recommended
limitations. Always follow the instructions on the side of the machine when changing gear.
If the motor labors, please stop the machine and reduce the size of the mix immediately.
Damage resulting from improper use is will void the warranty.
-
For operator safety, the machine is fitted with a bowl guard which is electrically interlocker
to ensure that the mixer cannot operate unless the guard is correctly positioned and the
bowl is raised. Excessive force used to open and close the bowl guard may damage the
electrically interlocker, and will void the warranty.
-
For additional safety, the mixer has a no volt release feature which means that in the event
of a power failure, the machine will only restart after the control button has been pressed
again. This arrangement ensures that when the supply is restored, the machine cannot
restart on its own.
-
Careful handling of bagged products by minimizing the height above the bowl base from
which they are poured.
-
Careful slitting of bags in the lower part of the bowl to allow dust free discharge of flour as
flour as possible.
-
Use temporary bowl covers to minimize openings through which flour many escape.
