Operation
You can use the appliance to mix,
knead and whisk food. The mixer and
mixing bowl are each driven separately
by their own motors, and the speeds of
the mixer and mixing bowl can be indi-
vidually adjusted. However the appli-
ance is switched on and off with one
single switch.
3 The dough hooks (Figure 1/H) are used
for heavy doughs, such as yeast dough,
short crust pastry, potato batters and
cake mixes.
The whisk (Figure 1/G) is suitable for
light cake mixes, egg white, cream,
mayonnaise, purées and for stirring
sauces and dessert powders.
