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.
Many of the recipes provided in your instruction booklet specify the use of the Flat Beater, however, for exceptionally thorough mixing and to save time, you can use your Scraper Beater instead.

ASSEMBLY AND OPERATION
of your Breville Scraper Mixer
assembly and operation
Assembling the Mixer
Before using your Breville mixer for the first time, remove any packaging material and promotional labels.
Ensure the speed control dial is in the ‘0 – Stand By’ position, the mixer is switched off at the power outlet and the power cord is unplugged.
Remove the mixing bowl, scraper beater, whisk and 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.
NOTE
When first using your Breville mixer, you may notice an odour coming from the motor. This is normal and will dissipate with use.
Attaching the bowl
1.Place the mixer stand on a level, dry surface such as a bench top. The mixer motor head should be in the horizontal (closed) position.
2.Raise the mixer motor head by depressing the tilt back hinge button, then lift the mixer motor head up until it tilts back and locks into the open position.
3.Insert the mixing bowl into the bowl locking recess of the mixer stand and turn clockwise until the bowl locks securely into place.
NOTE
To remove or insert the mixing bowl, the mixer motor head must be raised and locked into the open position.
11
assembly and operation
Attaching the SCRAPER Beater, Dough Hook or Whisk
1.Ensure the mixer motor head is in the raised open position. Align the groove in the top of the scraper beater, dough hook or whisk with the locking pin on the spindle extending down from the mixer motor head.
2.Press the scraper beater, dough hook or whisk upwards and turn clockwise until it locks securely onto the locking pin on the spindle.
3.Lower the mixer motor head by depressing the tilt back hinge button and pushing the mixer motor head down until it locks into the horizontal (closed) position.
NOTE
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.
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.
Operating the Mixer
Planetary Mixing Action
By replicating a similar mixing action used by commercial mixers in bakeries and patisseries, the Breville mixer head rotates around the bowl whilst 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 ‘0 – Stand By’ position, plug the cord into a 230/240v power outlet and switch the power ‘ON’ at the power outlet.
2.Add ingredients to the mixing bowl as indicated in the recipe.
3.Always begin mixing by selecting a low
12
assembly and operation
speed setting on the speed control dial. This will prevent ingredients splattering. Increase the speed as suited to the mixing task. The speed setting can be adjusted during operation by moving the dial forward and back. Use the mixing guide as a reference.
4.If necessary, stop the mixer during operation and scrape any food mixture down the sides of the mixing bowl with a spatula.
5.When mixing is complete, turn the speed control dial to the ‘0 – Stand By’ position, switch the appliance off at the power outlet and unplug the cord.
6.Raise the mixer motor head by depressing the tilt back button and lift the mixer motor head up until it tilts back and locks into the open position.
7.Remove the scraper beater/dough hook/ whisk by holding the mixer motor head and pressing the attachment upwards on the spindle. Turn the attachment anticlockwise to release it from the pin on the spindle.
Use a soft plastic spatula to remove mixture from the scraper beater, dough hook or whisk.
NOTE
When lowering or lifting the mixer, always support the motor head with your other hand to prevent from free-falling.
8.Remove the mixing bowl from the indented bowl locking recess of the mixer stand and turn anti-clockwise until the bowl releases. Use a soft plastic spatula to remove mixture from the mixing bowl.
9.Lower the mixer motor head by depressing the tilt back hinge button and pushing the mixer motor head down until it locks into the horizontal (closed) position.
WARNING
Avoid contact with scraper beater/ dough hook/whisk during operation. Keep hands, hair, clothing, spatulas and other utensils away from scraper beater/dough hook/whisk to prevent personal injury or damage to the mixer.

A small bottle brush can be used to clean inside the neck of the attachments if needed.
NOTE
Do not use abrasive scouring pads or cleaners when cleaning the mixing bowl, scraper beater, dough hook or whisk as these may scratch the surface. Also ensure that the attachments are not soaked in water for extended periods of time, for example several hours or overnight, as this may damage the finish.
NOTE
Do not wash or immerse the mixer motor head and mixer stand in water or any other liquid. Clean with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Do not allow water or any liquid to enter the gear system as damage may result.
Storage
Your mixer should be kept in a convenient position on your kitchen bench top or in an accessible cupboard.

MEASURING AND WEIGHING
Care should be taken when weighing and measuring ingredients to achieve accuracy and consistency. Recipes in this instruction book have been developed using Australian metric weights and measurements.

The New Zealand tablespoon is 5ml less than the Australian tablespoon, so care should
be taken when measuring ingredients to compensate for the variance. For example, 1 Australian tablespoon = 1 New Zealand tablespoon + 1 New Zealand teaspoon.
It is important to note that New Zealand ingredients, especially flour and yeast, can differ from Australian equivalents. Suitable New Zealand Products have been listed in the 'Vital Ingredients' section of this booklet.
We suggest these New Zealand products be substituted for the Australian products in the Recipe Section.
For further New Zealand bread making assistanceTelephone: 0800 273 845.
Metric weighing scales
For consistent results it is recommended that a set of metric weighing scales be used to weigh larger quantities as they provide greater accuracy than measuring cups.
Tare (zero) the scales with the container in position then spoon or pour ingredients in until the desired weight is achieved.
NOTE
In general, water weighs the same in grams as it measures in millilitres.
Metric measuring cups and spoons
If using graduated metric measuring cups, it is important to spoon the dry ingredients loosely into the required cup. Do not tap the cup on the bench or pack the ingredients into the cup unless otherwise directed. Level the top of the cup with a knife. When using graduated metric measuring spoons, level the top of the spoon with a straight edged knife or spatula.
Metric liquid measuring jugs
If using a graduated, metric measuring jug, place jug on a flat surface and check for
accuracy at eye level.
IMPORTANT
Do not use tableware cups or spoons. Do not use tableware jugs or measuring cups.
