1912 Midland Metal Spinners was founded by

George Cadman, who was then 65 years old, as

a metal holloware manufacturing company, in St.

Mark’s Street, Wolverhampton. They later moved

into the Tower and Fort Works in Pelham Street,

which ultimately gave rise to the famous Tower

brand name.

1937 Tower exhibited some of their latest holloware

designs at the British Industries Fair. As you can

see from the original poster, their stand No. A410

must have been a great sight as it promoted their

“Beautiful, inexpensive, untarnishable Plate, at

prices all can afford to pay”.

1961 Tower became one of the largest

manufacturers of aluminium holloware, electric

kettles, tea pots and other household articles with

over 1,000 employees.

1974 Russell Hobbs took ownership of the

expanding Tower brand.

Speeds:

Below is a list of the speed settings and recommended uses.

Setting Use

0 Standby and storage. Beaters will only

eject when if set to the ‘0’ position.

1 For slow stirring, combining and

starting all mixing procedures.

2 Mix our and dry ingredients with liquid

or other moist mixtures.

3 Combine heavy mixtures and mixing

Beating egg white.

RestTimes:

Do not run the hand mixer for more than 3 minutes at a time.

A 10 minute rest time is recommended between each use.

If you do run the hand mixer for more than 3 minutes, unplug and leave to cool before reusing.

• Do not over-beat. Be careful that you only mix/blend mixtures until recommended in your recipe. Fold into dry ingredients only until just combined.

• When whipping egg whites, plastic mixing bowls are not recommended. For best results, the mixing bowl and beaters must be completely clean and free from any fat or oil. Traces of fat or oil on the attachments or bowl will prevent the egg whites from increasing in volume during mixing.

• Changes in temperature and the texture and temperature of the ingredient will affect the required mixing time and end results.

• Always start mixing at lower speed. Gradually increase to the recommended speed as stated in the recipe.

Tips:

• Allow refrigerated ingredients, such as butter and eggs, to reach room temperature before mixing in order for them to combine more thoroughly.

• To avoid the possibility of shell in the mixture, break eggs into a separate container before adding to the mix.

• For best result use heavy cold cream, straight from the refrigerator for making whipped cream.
