SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
Keep work area clean, free of clutter and well lit. Cluttered and dark work areas can cause
accidents.
Do not use your mixer where there is a risk of causing a fire or an explosion; e.g. in the
presence of flammable liquids, gasses, or dust. Electric motors may create sparks, which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a mixer. Distractions can cause you to
lose control, so visitors should remain at a safe distance from the work area.
Be aware of all power lines, electrical circuits, water pipes and other mechanical hazards in
your work area, particularly those hazards below the work surface hidden from the operator’s
view that may be unintentionally contacted and may cause personal harm or property damage.
Be alert of your surroundings. Using mixers in confined work areas may put you dangerously
close to cutting mixers and rotating parts.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! Always check to ensure the power supply corresponds to the voltage on
the rating plate.
Do not abuse the cord. Never carry or pull a mixer by its power cord, or yank power cords or
extension cords from the receptacle. Keep power and extension cords away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords may cause
a fire and increase the risk of electric shock.
Grounded motors must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all codes and ordinances.Never remove the grounding prong or modify the
plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in
doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.
Double insulated electrical motors are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still doesn’t fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators.
There is an increase risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
When operating a electric mixer outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or
“W.” These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
Extension Cord Use.
A. Use only ‘Listed’ extension cords. If used outdoors, they must be marked “For Outdoor
Use.” Those cords having 3-prong grounding type plugs and mating receptacles are to be
used with grounded mixers.
B. Replace damaged or worn cords immediately.
C. Check the name plate rating of your mixer. Use of improper size or gauge of extension cord
may cause unsafe or inefficient operation of your mixer. Be sure your extension cord is
rated to allow sufficient current flow to the motor. For the proper wire gauge for your mixer,
