Secondly
If you are unsure of any aspect of the installation, instructions or performance of your oven, contact your
Paramount dealer promptly. In many cases a phone call could answer your question.
The Paramount BM60 is a dependable mixer for kneading and mixing all kinds of dough, egg, cream,
cookies, mayonnaise etc. The mixer works smoothly and reliably. The mixer has 3 speed selections and
an electronic timer. The mixer comes with various style attachments which can be used to obtain the
best results. These are made of alloy aluminum or of a food hygiene standard material.
This model Mixer is equipped with a powerful 2HP motor and strong belt and gear drive design. The
gears are made of hardened alloy steel and a hardened steel worm wheel. A stainless steel safety guard
and electronic timer are available on all models.
With proper operation and maintenance this mixer will give you years of service, and obtain the best
results.

Before installing the mixer, check that the available electrical supply match that
of the mixer as stated on the mixer’s rating plate.
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 within
one day of delivery.
Location
Place the mixer in its operating location - this should be a sturdy level surface. There should be
adequate space around the mixer for the user to operate the controls and install and remove the
bowl.
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 Connection
The supply cord on this machine is provided with a three-pin 13A fused and earthed plug. It is
imperative that the outlet to which this plug is connected is properly earthed (grounded).
Prior to installation, test the electrical service to assure it agrees with the specifications on the
machine data plate located on the rear side of the pedestal.
Permissible voltage fluctuation is ± 10% of nominal voltage.
Components having adjustments protected (e.g. paint sealed) by the manufacturer, are
only allowed to be adjusted by an authorised service agent.
Rotation
To start the motor, push the 'ON' button. The speed selector handle must be on one of the
numbers indicating a speed and not located between the numbers.

Operation
Keep hands, clothing and utensils out of the bowl whilst the machine is in operation.
Failure to follow the operation instructions or improper use of the mixer may result in
damage to the mixer, or cause injury to the operator.
Important:
Great care must be taken to minimise dust emission when handling dry ingredients such as flour. Bags
should opened in the lower part of the bowl and poured from as close to the base of the bowl as possible.
It is recommended that ingredients suppliers’ hazard data sheets are consulted prior to use. The use of
respiratory protective equipment may be required during loading of the bowl.
Non-Timed Operation
For non-timed operation, set speed selector at the desired speed, set the timer switch to the ’0’ position,
then depress the ’ON’ button. To stop the machine, depress the ’OFF’ button.
Timed Operation
For timed operation, set speed selector at desired speed, set the electronic timer to the desired time, then
depress the ’ON’ button. The mixer will automatically shut off after the preset time has elapsed. In timed
operation, if the machine is shut off before the preset time has elapsed, the electronic TIMER does not
continue. To restart mixing, the electronic TIMER has to be reset, then depress the ’ON’ button.
Speed Selection
To change speeds, first turn off the motor by depressing 'OFF' button, then shift the speed selector to the
desired speed. The selector must always be positioned over a speed number and never between the
numbers.
If shifting is not smooth, or you feel that the selector can not reach the exact position, please depress the
'ON' button, then immediately depress the 'OFF' button. The selector should now reach the exact position
easily. Be sure that shifting has finished, then depress ‘ON’ button to start machine.
Speed Control
Speed 1 (Low) - This speed is for heavy mixtures like dough, heavy batters and potatoes.
Speed 2 (Medium) - This speed is for mixing cake batters, mashing potatoes and for developing
dough.
Speed 3 (High) - This speed is for mixing maximum amount of air into light batches. The wire whip is
used for whipping cream, beating egg whites, mixing light icings, meringues etc.
