ADJUSTMENTS
Agitator Clearance
The agitator clearance should be checked periodically. The agitator must not touch the bowl, and the
maximum clearance between the bottom of the bowl and the B fl at beater is 1/8" (3 mm); the maximum
clearance between the bottom of the bowl and the ED dough arm is 5/16" (8 mm).
Install a bowl and agitator (e.g., beater). If the bowl and beater come into contact before the bowl support
reaches its stop, adjust the stop screw. Refer to Adjust the Bowl/Agitator Clearance, Figure 8.
Measure Clearance
Pour enough fl our in the bowl to cover the bottom of the bowl where the beater travels. With the bowl fully
raised (beater should not touch the bottom of the bowl), briefl y run the mixer at the lowest speed.
Turn off the mixer, disconnect the electrical power supply, and measure the depth of fl our where the
beater has traced a path. This measurement should be taken at several points around the bowl to assure
accuracy.
Adjust the Bowl/Agitator Clearance
• Turn the stop screws
counterclockwise to decrease
the clearance or clockwise to
increase the clearance. (Fig. 8)
• Reconnect the electrical power
supply.
• Carefully operate the bowl
lift several times to check the
adjustment.
