8.3 SPLASH COVER AND BOWL EXTENSION RING
Splash Covers and Bowl Extension Rings provide a means for minimising dust
emissions and reducing splashing for certain mixes at higher speeds. Splash covers fit
under the Bowl Guard. The stainless steel Bowl Extension Ring is also available. Splash
Covers and Bowl Extensions, while convenient accessories, should not be used to
increase the mixing capacity beyond the recommended maximum. The best functioning
of Hobart mixers requires room at the top of the bowl for aeration and manipulation.
Follow the Hobart Mixer Capacity Chart of the best quality of mix. Splash Covers on
larger mixers have a smaller diameter opening at the top due to their inverted cone
shape. Overloading the mixer while a splash cover is in use reduces aeration because of
restriction in the area where air enters the batch.
8.4 BOWL SCRAPER ATTACHMENT.
The mixer Bowl Scraper Attachment is available for the HL600 Mixer full and half size
bowls. This attachment scrapes the sides of the bowl as the agitator rotates to re-
introduce material into the mixture. The scraper must only be used with the whip or flat
beater agitators.
8.5 BOWL TRUCK.
When maneuvering or lifting a bowl and contents with a total weight in excess of 25 kg a
bowl truck must be used.
Bowl Trucks or dollies provide convenience, save time, and reduce effort in handling
large batches. Remove heavy batches of dough or batter from the mixer by unlocking the
bowl and lowering on to the Bowl Truck. Carefully roll the truck away to make room for
the next batch. Move the material to another location where it is to be used, or refrigerate
between mixing and further processing. Bowl Trucks save time, reduce handling, and
improve workflow. These are all valuable tools in a work place.
9.0 CLEANING.
CLEANING NEW MIXER BOWLS AND ACCESSORIES
Before using the first time, thoroughly wash new mixer bowls and agitators
(beaters, whips, dough hooks and pastry knives). Wash in hot water and a mild
detergent solution, rinsing with either a mild soda or vinegar solution, and
thoroughly rinse with clear water. Also follow this cleaning procedure for bowls and
agitators before whipping egg whites or whole eggs.
9.1 CLEANING AFTER USE.
After use, clean the mixing bowl, agitators and attachment with hot water, using a
suitable non-abrasive detergent and soft bristle brush. (Flushing the bowl with hot water
immediately after use will ease the cleaning).
Note: Do not clean the aluminium agitators in a dishwasher.
