INSTALLATION
The machine is supplied factory lubricated and ready
to run. It can be positioned on any substantial work surface
or bench which is capable of supporting a load of 30kg.
The transportation should require two people. Please see
Figure 1.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Before connecting this machine to the electrical supply, please check the details on the rating plate
(located on the rear of the machine) corresponding to the details of your electrical connection.
The mixer is supplied with a trailing lead fitted with a molded plug. If the style of plug is unsuitable for
the socket you plan to use, the plug must be cut off and replaced with an appropriate plug.
The mixer should be plugged into a switched socket which isolates all poles and has a minimum
contact clearance of 3mm and located close to the mixer for use in an emergency and to facilitate servicing
(max.2 meters of cable).
The machine must be incorporated into a potential equalization system.
The leakage current for this appliance is no greater than 1mA/KW.
If the electrical supply cable to the machine becomes damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified
electrician using cable which is 0.75 or higher and suitable for a 1/4HP motor load.
The ground wire is fixed to the machine and this connection must be kept intact.
CAUTION:
The mixer MUST be grounded.
BEFORE USING THE MIXER
Before using the mixer, please ensure that all users are familiar with the correct operation of the
machine. In particular, care should be taken to ensure that the bowl and mixing tools are correctly fitted and
the bowl cradle is in the raised position prior to starting the machine.
SAFETY AT WORK
Never place your hand or any kitchen utensil into the bowl when the mixer is in operation.
Please isolate the machine from the electrical supply by removing the plug from the socket before
cleaning or dismantling.
A notice advising operators of the safe use of this mixer is attached to the machine.
OFFICE, SHOPS AND RAILWAY PREMISES ACT, 1963
The above Act requires that this machine and attachments shall be operated only by a properly
instructed person or by an employee who is under the supervision of a properly instructed person. The
instruction shall include indication of the possible dangers arising and the precautions to be observed. The
Act also requires that no person under the age of 18 shall clean a machine if this exposes him to risk of
injury from a moving part of that machine or any adjacent machine.
CORRECT USE OF THE MIXER
It is the responsibility of the users to use the mixer correctly within the recommended limitations.
Always follow the instructions on the side of the machine when changing speed.
If the motor labors, stop the machine and reduce the size of the mix immediately. Damage resulting
from improper use is not covered by the SPAR warranty.
For operator safety, the machines is fitted with a bowl guard which is electrically interlocked to ensure
that the mixer cannot operate unless the guard is correctly positioned and the bowl is raised.
For additional safety the mixer has a no volt release feature which means that in the event of a power
failure, the machine will only restart after the control arrangement ensures that when the supply is restored,
the machine cannot restart on its own.
TOOL SELECTION
The beater, whisk and spiral dough hook are meant
for the work implied by their names.
Do not use the beater for dough making or the whisk
for anything other than whisking, aerating or mixing light
mixtures.
Table 1 shows the typical uses for each tool.
BOWL LIFT & BOWL GUARD
The BOWL CRADLE and BOWL GUARD are electrically interlocked. The machine will only
operate with the bowl cradle in the raised position. In addition to this, the bowl guard must be placed into
position by aligning the mark Vcut into the safety guard with the small raised portion on the lip of the
bowl. Only once the bowl is raised and the bowl guard is fitted, the machine can be operated. This safety
function ensures total user safety at all times. Once the bowl guard has been opened or the bowl lowered,
the machine will be shut off immediately.
During the mixing process additional ingredients can be added by means of the chute located on the
right hand side of the bowl guard.
FITTING THE BOWL
With the bowl cradle lowered, place the chosen mixing tool in the bowl and
position the bowl on the cradle. There are three location points for the bowl:
(1) The locking pin at the rear of the bowl should locate in the hole of the cradle.
(2) The two holes in the bowl handles must engage on the pins located on the
cradle.
(3) Latching the bowl locking.
Please ensure that the bowl is seated correctly on the cradle before securing
the bowl locking latches prior to use.
FITTING THE MIXING TOOL
Slide the bayonet fitting of the tool onto the PLANETARY SHAFT and twist
clockwise to secure it in position.
To remove the mixing tool, slides the tool up the PLANETARY SHAFT slightly and
twist counter clockwise. Please see figure 3.

CAPACITY
Please refer to Page 8. The table lists the recommended capacities of finished weights of regular mixes.
Although the machine may be capable of mixing larger quantities, it will lead to excessive and premature
wear and possible failure. Overloading also results in lengthy processes and unsatisfactory results.
SPEED SELECTION
Before changing speeds, the mixer must always be stopped. The necessary speed can then be selected
before restarting the machine by pressing the red start button.
The speed selected depends largely on the quantity and consistency of the product. It is recommended
that mixing is always started at the lowest speed and progressively increased to the desired speed. In an
emergency situation always use the red emergency stop button to stop the machine.
Table 2 shows the recommended speeds for the range of tools.

Note: After cleaning, please wipe the shaft with Vaseline or oil for
better lubrication and preventing rust.
#
THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION (Circuit Breaker)
The thermal overload protection (circuit breaker) will shut off and stop
the machine automatically. If this occurs, please turn off the mixer and reduce
the size of the batch.
After waiting one minute, reset the circuit breaker (push in) and turn on
the mixer. If mixers stop again, reduce the batch further. If this happens with
an extremely small/light batch, please contact the nearest authorized service
agent for further information.
CARE OF YOUR MIXER
The mixer is designed for minimum user maintenance. It may be necessary from time to time to apply a
little oil to the rods on which the bowl cradle slides. If so, use a little food quality lubricant, ensuring that
there is no excess oil that could contaminate the food mix.
Water jet cleaning is not allowed. Clean the mixer thoroughly after use. The body should be wiped
down with a damp cloth after first isolating the machine from the electricity supply. Do not spray the
machine with or immerse it in water. Do not forget to clean the rear of the machine and do not allow the
rear vents to become blocked as this may result in overheating.
Pay particular attention to the bowl pins and any surrounding areas of the cradle to prevent a buildup of
mix as this could prevent incorrect location of the bowl. For the same reason, ensure that the beater shaft and
each of the sockets on the tools are cleaned thoroughly. The bowl and tools should be washed in hot soapy
water, rinsed and dried before being put into storage. Do not wash the tools in a dishwasher as the
polished finish will be adversely affected by the dishwashing chemicals.
MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance is necessary on all machines if they are to remain in good working order. It is
strongly recommended that this be carried out by trained technicians from a SPAR appointed distributor.
GEARBOX LUBRICANT
Please refill the lubricant inside the gearbox every 5 years. We recommended that this servicing or
maintenance work must be carried out by trained technicians from a SPAR appointed distributor.
CAUTION:
Please use either Mobil lubricant “XHP 222” or Brugarolas “GRASA AGUILA PLEX
2-BOLSA” to refill the gearbox.
PLANETARY UNIT LUBRICANT
In case there is a strange noise coming from the planetary unit, please reapply grease to the planetary
unit. We recommended that this servicing or maintenance work must be carried out by trained technicians
from a SPAR appointed distributor.
CAUTION:
Please use TACBECON grease “DGK-100” to lubricate the planetary unit.

* NOTE: The mixer capacity depends on the moisture content of the dough. When mixing dough (pizza,
bread, or bagel) check your AR%! %AR (% Absorption Ratio) = Water weight divided by flour weight.
For higher gluten flour reduce dough batch by 25%.
Maximum Mixing Time - 7 Minutes
If high gluten flour is used, reduce the batch size by 10%.
If using chilled flour, water below 70F, or ice, reduce batch size by 10%.
2nd speed should never be used on 50% AR or lower.
