The gears are made of heat treated alloy steel and a hardness steel worm wheel. There is 3
speeds and various style attachments which can be selected to obtain the best using food are
made of alloy aluminum or they’re with hygiene standard. A stainless steel safety guard is
standard on model BMPM020
If your operation and maintenance are correct, then it will give you years of service, and obtain
the best using result. INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking the mixer, check it for possible shipping damage. If this machine
is found to be damaged after unpacking, save the packaging material and contact the carrier
immediately. Prior to installation, test the electrical service to assure it agree with the
specifications on the machine data plate located on the back side of the pedestal.
LOCATION
Place the mixer in its operating location. Bench should be placed on a sturdy level surface.
There should be adequate space around the mixer for the user to operate the control and
install and remove bowls.
Holes are provided in the base to permanently secure the mixer, although this not necessary in
normal installations. Floor models must be leveled front-back and side-to-side by sliding shims
under the legs as required.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (Cord Connected Mixers)
WARNING: THIS SUPPLY CORD ON THIS MACHINE IS PROVIDED WITH A THREE-
PRONG GROUNDING PLUG. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THE OUTLET TO WHICH THIS
PLUG IS CONNECTED BE PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF THE RECEPTACLE IS NOT THE
PROPER GROUNDING TYPE, AN ELECTRICIAN SHOULD BE CONTACTED.
A 3 PHASE MIXER SHOULD CHECK MIXING ROTATION WHEN ELECTRICAL
CONNECTED.

OPERATION
WARNING: MOVING BEATER IN BOWL. KEEP HAND, CLOTHING, AND UTENSILS OUT
WHILE IN OPERATION.
All models are furnished with an ON-OFF switch (figure 1-11), which controls power to the
mixer.
The GEAR SHIFT LEVER (figure 1-3) is used to change
speeds. Always stop the mixer before changing speeds.
To change speeds, turn the switch OFF, move the gear
shift lever to the desired speed, and turn the switch back
ON.
•Speed 1 (low) - This speed is for heavy mixtures such
as bread dough, heavy batters, and potatoes.
•Speed 2 (medium) - This speed is for light dough
which must raise quickly, heavy batters, and some
whipping operations.
•Speed 3 (high) - This speed is fast speed for light
work such as whipping cream, beating eggs, and
mixing thin batters.
AGITATOR
To install an agitator (figure 1-5), the bowl (Figure 1-6) must be installed and fully lowered.
Place the agitator in the bowl, push it up on the agitator shaft, and turn it clockwise to seat the
shaft pin in the slot of the agitator shank.

DOUGH ARM:
Frequently used for heavy bread dough, and preferable to be used at low speed.
The moisture content of heavy dough is critical when selecting proper
mixing speed. You should never use 2nd speed when mixing heavy dough
with an Absorption Ratio (AR) of 50% or less.
BEATER:
Commonly used for thin batters, cake and mashing potatoes, like stuffing and
preferable to be used at middle speed.
WIRE WHIP:
Best for whipping cream and beating eggs and preferable to be used at high
speed.
BOWL
New mixer's bowl (Figure 1-6) and agitators (beaters, whip, and dough arms) should be
thoroughly washed with hot water and mild soap solution, rinsed with either a mild soda or
vinegar solution, and thoroughly rinsed with clean water BEFORE being put into service. This
cleaning procedure should also be followed for bowls and agitators before whipping egg whites
with or whole eggs.
HUB ATTACHMENTS
The mixer's standard-sized, No. 12 hub accommodates a variety of optional attachments. To
install an attachment, loosen the thumbscrew (Figure 1-7) on the attachment hub and remove
the hub cover plug (Figure 1-8). Insert the attachment into the attachment hub making certain
that the square shank of the attachment is in the square driver of the mixer. Secure the

attachment by tightening the thumbscrew. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's installation,
operation, and safety instructions for the hub attachment.
Attachment hub should not be used while mixing.
MIXING HEAVY DOUGH
The moisture content of heavy dough is a critical factor when selecting proper mixing speed.
You should never use 2nd speed when mixing heavy dough with an Absorption Ratio (AR) of
50% or less.
To determine the Absorption Ratio (AR) of a product, divide the water weight by the flour
weight. Example: Calculate the Absorption Ratio of a mixture containing 5 lbs. of water and 10
lbs. of flour. 5 -T 10 = 0.50 = 50 % = AR

hose or any fluid pressure.
The mixer should be thoroughly cleaned daily.
Bowls and agitators should be removed from the mixer and cleaned in a link.
The transmission case and planetary mechanism should be inspected weekly for leaks,

lead to damage and void the unit's warranty.
The bowl lift slid ways (Figure 1-1) should be lubricated semi-annually, or more often under
heavy usage. Disconnect the unit from the power supply before removing the top housing or
apron. The drip cup (Figure 1-4) or safety guard should be inspected periodically for
moisture or lubricant dripping. Remove the cup and wipe it with a soft cloth.

CLEANING
The mixer should be thoroughly cleaned daily.
Bowls and agitators should be removed from the mixer and cleaned in a sink.
