Planetary Mixing Action - KitchenAid 3KSM6583T Manual

USING THE STAND MIXER
BEATER TO BOWL CLEARANCE
Your Stand 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 strikes the bottom of the bowl
or is too far away from the bowl, clearance
can be corrected as follows:
Tilt head
1. Lift motor head.
2. Turn screw (A) slightly to the left to
raise flat beater and to the right to
lower flat beater.
3. Make adjustment with flat beater, so it
just clears surface of bowl.

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.

Bowl lift
1. Place bowl lift
handle in down
position.
2. Turn screw (B)
slightly to the left
to raise flat beater
and to the right to
lower flat beater.
3. Make adjustments with flat beater, so
it just clears surface of bowl.
A
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. Stand Mixer must be
stopped to scrape bowl or damage to
Stand Mixer may occur.
B
Your KitchenAid Stand 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.
