Bowl Guard

The wire cage assembly on the bowl guard can be rotated out of the way to add ingredients or to access the
bowl and agitator.

To Rotate the Wire Cage Assembly to the Rear

Rotate the wire cage assembly to the left until it is positioned underneath the splash guard. Note how the
grooves on the nylon retainers allow the wire cage to ride around the circular ridge of the planetary drip cup.

The wire cage must be returned to the front and center position for the mixer to operate.

To Remove the Wire Cage Assembly for Cleaning

Lower the bowl. Rotate the wire cage assembly to the left until it is positioned underneath the splash guard.
Remove both agitator and bowl.

While holding the wire cage assembly with both hands, rotate it completely to the left. When the front
center retainer reaches the end of its travel, it can be lowered through the flat on the ridge of the drip cup. After
lowering the front-center retainer, move the wire cage assembly slightly to the rear so the rear retainers
clear the ridge on the drip cup. The wire cage assembly can now be lowered and removed.

Wash the wire cage in a sink or dishwasher; rinse with clear water; and dry with a clean cloth.

The stainless steel splash guard can be wiped off or washed easily with a cloth or sponge and warm soapy
water. Rinse with clear water. Dry with a clean cloth.

To Reinstall the Wire Cage Assembly

Hold the wire cage so its top ring is positioned around the planetary drip cup with the grooves in both nylon rear
retainers straddling the ridge on the drip cup at the rear. Lift the wire cage assembly so the front-center retainer
passes up through the flat on the ridge of the drip cup and rotate the wire cage assembly to the right. The
wire cage is properly assembled when all three retainers straddle the ridge on the drip cup in the three opposed
locations. Rotate the wire cage assembly to the right until it stops at the front-center position.

Rotate the wire cage out-of-the-way to install or remove the agitator and bowl or to add ingredients.

Return the wire cage to its front-center position to operate the mixer.
