intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated, dangerous voltage
within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of fire or electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK)
NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE
REPAIR SHOULD BE DONE BY AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY
WARNING
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from
electric shock. The appliance is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and a
3-prong, grounding-type plug to fit the proper grounding-type receptacle. The
appliance has a plug that looks like the plug in drawing (1). An adapter, as
in drawing (2), should be used for connecting the appliance plug to two-prong
receptacles.
The grounding lug, which extends from the adapter, must be connected to a
permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box as shown in drawing
(3), using a metal screw. If the unit needs to be hardwired, have a licensed
electrician connect the unit to a power supply.
GROUNDING METHOD
SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in
their use.
If a long extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the
extension cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance, and the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong, grounding-type plugs and
3-pole cord connectors that accept the plug from the appliance. Use only
extension cords that are intended for indoor use. Use only extension cords
having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the appliance. Do not
use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace
if damaged.
Do not abuse extension cord and do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep
cord away from heat and sharp edges.

MIXER CAPACITY CHART
The following maximum capacities are intended as a guideline only.
Varying factors, such as the type of flour used, temperature of water used and
other conditions may require the batch to be reduced.
When mixing dough (pizza, bread or bagels) check your “AR”– absorption ratio –
water weight divided by flour weight.
Below capacities based on 12% flour moisture at 70˚F water temperature.
If high-gluten flour is used, reduce dough batch size by 10%.
2nd speed should never be used on mixtures with less than 50% AR.
Do not use attachments on hub while mixing.
When calculating the correct size mixer for your application, some helpful
weights and measures to follow: 8.3 lb. = 1 gallon water & 2.0 lb. = 1 quart.
