A FULLY TRAINED AND COMPETENT PERSON MUST ONLY USE THE
ATTACHMENT AND/OR MIXER.
The following instructions must be observed when using the mixer.
Note: The mixer must only be used for the purpose it was designed and inline with the
supplied operating instructions.

bowl truck must be used (Hobart part number 874361)

5.1 DUST HAZARD.
In order to minimise any dust hazard follow the instructions detailed below.
When mixing ingredients care must be taken to avoid the inhalation of dust particles e.g.
flour. Reference should be made to product supplier's data sheets to ensure adequate
precautions/protections are taken. Items such as flour must be added in such a manner
to avoid dust particles being dispersed into the local atmosphere. Carefully slit the bag
whilst holding in the lower part of the bowl. When mixing dry ingredient use the lowest
speed to minimise dust emission. Use a splash cover to reduce dust emissions (refer to
the recommended spare parts Section 13, page 37 for the cover part number). Mix the
ingredients in the bowl using the lowest speed until the risk of producing any dust is
eliminated. Fit suitable dust extraction equipment.
