InstallatIon of new mIxer:
Installation and securing:
The mixer must be mounted with rubber feet, which neu-
tralize both shaking and rusting. Spacers can be inserted
under the mixer’s feet, if the oor is not completely even.
The mixer is placed directly on the oor. Foundation bolts
in the oor are only necessary under special conditions,
e.g. on ships .
Connection to power:
Before the mixer is connected to power, it should be
checked that the voltage and frequency printed on the
machine label is correct in relation to the place of instal-
lation. The machine label is placed at the top right side
of the mixer.
Checking of the direction of rotation of the planetary
head:
Lift up the bowl arms to normal working position
andstartthemixerwithoutbowlandtools.Check
thedirectionofrotationoftheplanetaryhead:the
planetary head must rotate in the direction as
stated by the arrow above the planetary head. If
the direction of rotation is wrong, 2 of the phase
wires of the connecting cable must be inverted.
General:
In case of complaints, please contact your supplier.
The guarantee does not cover faults resulting from faulty
operation, overloading and lacking observance of direc-
tions of maintenance.
It should be checked that all loose parts are delivered
with the mixer such as bowl, tools, grease gun and rub-
ber feet
If the mixer has an attachment drive only equipment pro-
duced by Varimixer A/S must be connected.
safety:
The constant noise level of the workplace of the operator
is lower then 70 dB (A).
The mixer is designed for manufacture of pro-
ducts which do not during processing cause
reactions or emit substances which may be det-
rimental to the user.
Putting your ngers in the bowl while the mixer
is running may cause injuries.

OBS:
The mixer is to be connected to power via a plug. The plug
must be dimensioned for min. 16 A, 230/400V~, IP44
When connecting;
1 phase with 0 + earth, use 3 pole plug
2 phases + earth, use 3 pole plug
3 phases + earth, use 4 pole plug
3 phases with 0 + earth, use 5 pole plug

Example: A basic recipe contains 1 kg of solids and 0,6 kg of liquid:
This gives AR = 0,6 kgs x 100 = 60%
1 kg
If for instance it is required to use the maximum capacity of the mixer, the calculated AR = 60% is used
for determining the amount of solids and liquid in the dough:
If a 80 L mixer is used, and a dough with AR = 60% is to be kneaded, the maximum capacity is = 60 kg.
Now the weight of solids in this dough is calculated:
Solids = Max. capacity x100 =60 kg x 100 = 37,50 kg
AR + 100 60 + 100
Weight of liquid = 60 kg - 37,50 kg = 22,50 kg
the maxImum CapaCIty of the mIxer:
Local variations in the characteristics of the ingredients can inuence water
absorption, volume and baking characteristics, etc.

operatIon of the mIxer:
A Place the tool in the bowl. Open the safety guard.
BNote: the bowl arms must be in the lowest position.
Place the bowl in the bowl arms. Check that the
bowl is pushed right back into the arms and that the
“centre ear” of the bowl arms are turning in towards
themixer(g. 2). Place the mixer tool in the bayonet
shaft. The tap of the tool must be turned right into
the bayonet hole. Close the safety guard.
CPress to lift the bowl (g. 3). The bowl will auto-
matically stop in the top position.
DYou can set the mixing time on the timer using
the and buttons or you can start the mixer
without setting a time. If you do not set a time, the
display will function as a clock that counts up. See
also “Timer function” on page 6.
EPress to start the mixer (g.3).
FPress and until you have reached the desired
speed. You can read the speed on the indicator on
the side of the mixer (g. 2). See also “Recom-
mended max. speeds” (g. 1).
G During the mixing process the mixer can be paused
by pressing .Youcan now lower the bowloropen
the safety guard. If you start the mixer again using
all the settings will be unchanged. If you start
the mixer using the settings will be reset. See
also “Pause function” on page 6.
HWhen the mixing process is completed the mixer
is stopped by pressing , or by the timer going
into stop position. In both cases the tool’s speed is
automatically reduced to a minimum and it will then
stop completely.
IWhen the tool has stopped the bowl can be lowered
by pressing .
Bowl lIftInG and speed Control:
The mixer’s control panel has two buttons: and ,
which both have two functions (g.3):
• Bowl up or speed up
• Bowl down or speed down
The function of the buttons is determined by whether the
mixer is running or not:
• If the mixer is not running, the buttons are used for
“bowl up” and “bowl down”.
• If the mixer is running, the buttons are used for
“speed up” and “speed down”.
• When the mixer stops at the end of a process and
the tool is still, the buttons are used for “bowl up”
and “bowl down”.
The bowl seen from
above, The “centre
ear” of the bowl is
facing the mixer.
