ASSEMBLING THE STAND MIXER
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, the coating may wear 
off the flat beater (for coated beaters) or 
wires on the wire whip may wear.
Scraping sides of bowl may be necessary 
under certain conditions regardless of 
beater adjustment. The Stand Mixer must 
be stopped to scrape bowl or damage to 
Stand Mixer may occur.
Adjusting 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 the clearance easily.
2
Lower the bowl to the down position.
3
Turn beater height adjustment screw (A) 
slightly counterclockwise (left) to raise 
the flat beater; or turn clockwise (right) 
to lower the flat beater. Adjust so that 
the flat beater just clears the surface of 
the bowl. If you over adjust the screw, 
the bowl lift lever may not lock in place.
1
Turn speed control to “0” (OFF), and 
unplug Stand Mixer.
