ABOUT YOUR SCRAPER BEATER
The Breville scraper beater folds ingredients
and continuously scrapes down the sides and
bottom of the bowl for exceptionally thorough
mixing. It virtually eliminates the need to
scrape the bowl by hand with a spatula and
cuts mixing time up to 60%.
Under-mixed batters produce poorly baked
results, resulting in collapsing, unevenness of
crumb, holes, low rising, streaking and course
textures. The scraper beater will help to ensure
a thoroughly mixed batter for your favourite
cakes, biscuits, frosting and more.

ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
ASSEMBLING THE MIXER
Before using your bench mixer for the
first time, remove any packaging material
and promotional labels. Ensure the speed
control dial is in the OFF position, the mixer
is switched off at the power outlet and the
power cord is unplugged.

dough hook and wash in warm soapy water
with a soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
The bowl and the attachments may be
washed in the dishwasher.
When first using your bench mixer, you may
notice an odour coming from the motor.
This is normal and will dissipate with use.
ATTACHING EITHER THE LARGE OR
SMALL BOWL
The process is the same to insert either the
large or small bowl.
1. To remove or insert the mixing bowl, the
mixer motor head must be raised and
locked into the open position.
2. Place the mixer on a level, dry bench
top. The mixer motor head should be in
the horizontal (closed) position when
moving. Raise the mixer motor head by
pressing the RELEASE button.
3. Lift the mixer motor head up until it tilts
back and locks into the open position.
4. Insert the mixing bowl into the bowl
locking recess of the mixer stand and

lowering the mixer motor head until it
locks into the closed position.
5. The splash guard can now be assembled
if required. For the large bowl, slide the
main ring into position on top of the
bowl, then assemble the pour spout. For
the small bowl, the splash guard is
one piece.
ASSEMBLING THE SCRAPER WHISK
TOOL
The mixing tool for the small bowl converts
between a scraper beater and a scraper
whisk.
To convert the scraper beater into a scraper
whisk, the wire whisk part needsto be locked
onto the scraper beater
1. Loosen the locking nut by turning
anti-clockwise.
2. Assemble the wire whisk part onto the
scraper beater.
3. With the collar of the whisk in position,
turn the locking nut clockwise to fasten
wire in place.
4. Converting the scraper whisk back to
a scraper beater is the same process in
reverse. Remember to turn the locking
nut anti-clockwise to loosen, and
clockwise to tighten.

ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
OPERATING THE MIXER
Planetary Mixing Action
By replicating a similar mixing action used
by commercial mixers in bakeries and
patisseries, the Scraper Mixer Pro head
rotates around the bowl while rotating
the beater in the opposite direction. This
ensures a superior and thorough mixing
result without the need for a rotating bowl.
1. Ensure the speed control dial is set to
the OFF position, plug the cord into
a 220–240V power outlet and switch
the power ON at the power outlet. The
illuminated LED speed indicator band
will flash and the count up/down timer
will display 0:00. The mixer is
now ready.
2. Add ingredients to the mixing bowl as
indicated in the recipe.
3. Always begin mixing by selecting a low
speed setting on the speed control dial.
Starting on a low speed will prevent
ingredients splattering. Increase the
speed as suited to the mixing task. The
speed setting can be adjusted during
operation. If necessary, stop the mixer
during operation and scrape any food
mixture down the sides of the mixing
bowl with a spatula.
4. If the mixer has not been used for
5 minutes it will automatically change
from STANDBY mode to a power saving
OFF mode and the illuminated LED will
switch off. To exit OFF mode and begin
mixing, turn the dial to the selected
speed or press one of the count up/down
timer buttons.
5. Do not turn the mixer on with the
scraper beater in place if the mixing
bowl is empty. This will cause the
scraper beater to make a loud noise as it
scrapes the bowl.
6. When ingredients are in the mixing
bowl, the scraper beater may make a
slight noise as it scrapes the sides and
bottom of the bowl. This is normal and
should not cause concern.

15

ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
THE COUNT-UP TIMER
The count-up timer is for gauging mixing
time. You can monitor the time it takes to
thoroughly mix the ingredients, so that the
next time you mix the same ingredients you
can set the count-down timer for the
specific time.
The count-up timer will automatically
begin counting up as soon as the dial is
rotated from OFF to one of the speeds.
When the dial is turned to PAUSE the total
time will be displayed on the LCD and will
flash. When the dial is turned to OFF, the
LCD display will reset back to 0:00.
THE COUNT-DOWN TIMER
The count-down timer is for any recipe that
specifies the length of time ingredients
should be mixed. For example, if a recipe
reads, “beat for 3 minutes”.
To set the count-down timer, press the up or
down arrows until the desired mixing time is
displayed on the LCD screen. Press and hold
to scroll more quickly.
Rotate the dial to select the desired speed,
and begin mixing. When the timer has
finished counting down, it will beep. The
motor will automatically turn off and the
timer will flash OFF.
The control dial must to be rotated to the
OFF position to reset the timer and to
continue mixing.
PAUSE MODE
While mixing, at any stage, you can rotate
the control dial to the PAUSE setting. This
will suspend the timer, and turn the motor
off. This enables you to assess the mixing
progress or add additional ingredients
without affecting the timer.
For example, if you are mixing using the
count-up timer mode, you can rotate the
control dial from one of the mixing speeds
to PAUSE. The mixer motor will stop and
the timer will pause.
Once ready, rotate the dial back to one of the
mixing speeds and the timer will continue to
count-up from the exact time it was paused.
Alternatively, if the mixer is on PAUSE, you
can reset the timer to 0:00 by rotating the
dial to OFF.
The PAUSE function can also be used in
the count-down timer mode. To continue
mixing, rotate the dial back into one of the
mixing speeds to allow the timer to continue
counting down.

ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
MOTOR HEAD SAFETY CUT-OFF
The mixer is equipped with a motor head
safety cut-off. If the mixer head is lifted up at
any time while the mixer motor is switched
on, the safety cut-off will automatically
switch the motor off and set the mixer into
standby mode.
To restart the motor within 5 minutes, lower
the mixer head into the hotizontal (closed)
position, and turn the dial away then back to
the required speed setting. This will resume
mixing and the timer will resume counting.
To restart the motor after 5 minutes or more,
lower the mixer head and turn the dial to
OFF then back to the required speed. The
timer will start from 0.
To turn the mixer off (instead of restarting),
turn the dial to OFF, and unplug from
the wall.
ELECTRONIC PROTECTION
CUT-OFF - CURRENT OVERLOAD
The mixer is equipped with an electric
protection cut-off and will automatically
stop operating if the motor is stalled or
overloaded. This is normally a result of
excessive ingredients being processed at
one time. Should the mixer go into this
mode, the LED indicator band will flash and
the error message “E1” will flash on the LCD
screen and the buzzer will beep 3 times.
If this error occurs, turn the speed control
dial to the OFF position, switch the
appliance off at the power outlet and unplug
the cord. Remove some of the ingredients in
the mixing bowl and then restart the mixer.
THERMO CUT-OFF -
TEMPERATURE OVERLOAD
The mixer is equipped with a self-resetting
safety device which safeguards against
overheating the motor with excessive
loads. If overheating occurs, the mixer will
automatically activate the overheating
protection device and the motor will switch
itself off. Should the mixer go into this
mode, the LED indicator band will flash and
the error message “E2” will flash on the LCD
screen and the buzzer will beep 3 times.
If this error occurs, turn the speed control
dial to the OFF position, switch the
appliance off at the power outlet and unplug
the cord. Wait at least 15 minutes before
restarting the mixer.
