Beater To Bowl Clearance

Your mixer is adjusted at the factory so that 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, clearance can be corrected as follows:

Model 5K45SS, 5KSM90:

• Lift motor head.
• Turn screw (A) slightly to the left to raise flat beater and to the right to lower flat beater.
• Make adjustment with flat beater, so it just clears surface of bowl.

Model 5KSM5:

• Place bowl lift handle in down position.
• Turn screw (B) slightly to the left to raise flat beater and to the right to lower flat beater.
• Make adjustment with flat beater, so it just clears surface of bowl.

NOTE: Flat beater must not strike on bottom or side of bowl when properly adjusted. If beater or wire whip is adjusted too close so that it strikes bottom of bowl, coating may wear off of beater or wires may wear through on wire whip.
Scraping sides of bowl may be necessary under certain conditions regardless of beater adjustment. Mixer must be stopped to scrape bowl or damage to mixer may occur.

Care and Cleaning of Your Mixer

WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD ALWAYS BE SURE TO UNPLUG MIXER BEFORE CLEANING TO AVOID POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Wipe mixer with a damp cloth. DO NOT IMMERSE IN WATER. Wipe off beater shaft frequently, removing any residue that may accumulate.

Bowl, flat beater, wire whip and dough hook may be wash in an automatic dishwasher. Or, clean them thoroughly in hot sudsy water and rinse completely before drying.
Lubrication: Motor bearings are selflubricating and should require no further attention under normal use.

Planetary Mixing Action

During operation, the flat beater moves around the stationary bowl, at the same time turning in the opposite direction on its own axis. The diagram shows the complete coverage of the bowl made by the path of the beater.

Your KitchenAid® Mixer will mix faster and more thoroughly than most other electric mixers. Therefore, the mixing time in most recipes must be adjusted to avoid overbeating.

Mixer Use

The bowl and beater are designed to provide thorough mixing without frequent scraping. Scraping the bowl once or twice during mixing is usually sufficient.
The mixer may warm up during use. Under heavy loads with extended mixing time, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the unit. This is normal.

WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
To avoid personal injury and damage to the beater, do not attempt to scrape bowl while mixer is operating; turn mixer off. Should scraper or other object drop into bowl, turn motor OFF before removing.

Speed Control Guide

Mixing Tips

Converting your recipe to the mixer
The mixing instructions found in this book can be used to convert your favourite recipes for use with your KitchenAid® Mixer.
To help determine a mixing procedure, your own observations and experience will be needed. Watch the batter or dough and mix only until it has the desired appearance described in your recipe such as “smooth and creamy.” Use the “Speed Control Guide” to help determine proper mixing speeds.

Adding Ingredients
The standard procedure to follow when mixing most batters, especially cake and cookie batters, is to add:
1/3 dry ingredients
1/2 liquid ingredients
1/3 dry ingredients
1/2 liquid ingredients
1/3 dry ingredients

Use Stir speed until ingredients have been blended. Then gradually increase to desired speed.
Always add ingredients as close to side of bowl as possible, not directly into moving beater. The Pouring Shield can be used to simplify adding ingredients.

NOTE: If ingredients in very bottom of bowl are not thoroughly mixed, the beater is not far enough into the bowl. “See Beater to Bowl Clearance.”
Cake Mixes
When preparing packaged cake mixes, use Speed 4 for medium speed and Speed 6 for high speed. For best results, mix for the time stated on the package directions. Adding Nuts, Raisins or
Candied Fruits
Solid materials should be folded in the last few seconds of mixing on Stir Speed. The batter should be thick enough to keep the fruit or nuts from sinking to the bottom of the pan during baking. Sticky fruits should be dusted with flour for better distribution in the batter.
Liquid Mixture
Mixtures containing large amounts of liquid ingredients should be mixed at lower speeds to avoid splashing. Increase speed only after mixture has thickened.

Mixing and Kneading Yeast Dough

1. Place all dry ingredients including yeast into bowl, except last 1 to 2 cups flour.

2. Attach bowl and dough hook. Lock 5K45SS, 5KSM90 head or raise 5KSM5 bowl. Turn to Speed 2 and mix about 15 seconds or until ingredients are combined.

3. Continue on Speed 2, gradually add liquid ingredients to flour mixture, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Mix 1 minute longer.
   NOTE: If liquid ingredients are added too quickly, they will form a pool around the dough hook and slow down mixing process.

4. Continuing on Speed 2, gently tap remaining flour around sides of bowl, 1/2 cup at a time, as needed. Mix until dough clings to hook and cleans sides of bowl, about 2 minutes.

5. When dough clings to hook, knead on Speed 2 for 2 minutes or until dough is smooth and elastic.

6. Unlock and raise head on 5KSM90 and remove dough from hook. Unlock and raise head on 5K45SS or lower bowl on 5KSM5 and remove dough from hook.

NOTE: These instructions illustrate bread making with the Rapid Mix method. When using the conventional method, dissolve yeast in warm water in warmed bowl. Add remaining liquids and dry ingredients except last 1 to 2 cups flour.
Turn to Speed 2 for about 1 minute, or until ingredients are thoroughly mixed. Proceed with steps 4 through 6.

Egg Whites

Place room temperature egg whites in clean, dry bowl. Attach bowl and wire whip. To avoid splashing, gradually turn to designated speed and whip to desired stage. See chart below.
