VARIMIXER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ARE THE SPEED LEVER, BOWL LIFT LEVER, OR THE BOWL
ARMS TO BE USED TO MOVE THE MIXER INTO PLACE. DAMAGE WILL RESULT TO THE UNIT.
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE TOP LID BE REMOVED BEFORE MOVING THE UNIT.
The mixer must be mounted with the rubber feet, which neutralize both shaking and rusting. Spacers
can be inserted under the mixer’s feet if the floor is uneven. The mixer can be bolted to the floor if d
esired.
Before the mixer is connected to power, it should be checked that the voltage and frequency on the
rating plate is correct in relation to the place of installation. A unit labeled 220V 3 Phase will operate
from 208V to 240V 3 phase safely. The rating plate is located on the rear right side of the mixer. The
electrical connection box is located at the top rear of the mixer.
WARNING
Electrical and grounding connections must comply with applicable portions of the National Electrical
Code and/or other local electrical codes................................................................ire

1. Lower the bowl using the bowl lift lever or the
bowl lift switch on the front panel.
4. Close bowl screen and raise
the bowl arms into the up
position.
5. Turn timer to 10 minutes and
push “start” .
2. Open the bowl screen.
43
3. Remove the bowl
and tools.
6. Insure cover is rotating in
the correct direction.
OPERATION OF THE MIXER:
A) Open the bowl screen and place the bowl in the bowl
arms. Note: The bowl arms must be in lowest position and
the bowl must be pushed all the way into the bowl arms.
(Fig.3).
B) Place the mixing tool in the bayonet shaft. The pin on
the tool must be turned into the bayonet hole (fig.2).
C) The bowl is raised to working position by a clockwise
turn of the button for bowl lift. Ensure that the bowl is
placed correctly. Close the bowl screen. If the mixer is
equipped with a timer, set the mixing time required by turning the timer (fig 1) clockwise. The mixer will stop automatically, when the time runs out. When the mixer has timed
out, the "procedure for starting after emergency stop" is
used before the mixer is re-started.
D) Start the mixer by pressing the green start button
(fig.1)
The mixer will only start when the bowl is in the "up"
position, the bowl screen is "closed", and the timer is set to
"time" or "hold".
E) Turn the speed selector lever (fig. 4) to the rear until
the required speed has been obtained, (notice the recommended maximum speeds on page 3).
F) Before the mixer is stopped, the speed selector lever
must be moved back to lowest speed (fig.4).
G) Stop the mixer by pressing the red stop button (fig.1)
PROCEDURE FOR STARTING AFTER EMERGENCY
STOP:
1) This procedure must be used in cases where the mixer
has been interrupted in high speed.
2) Lower the bowl and remove the tool from the bayonet.
3) Raise the bowl arms, either empty or with the bowl.
4) Close the bowl screen, start the mixer and move
the speed selector lever back to lowest speed. Switch off
the mixer. Now the mixer can be started as usual.
OVERLOAD
Do not overload the mixer. Sticky and heavy doughs may
reduce the capacity of the bowl by 75%. The capacity is
further reduced if the speed of the mixing tool is increased
beyond recommended values or if an incorrect mixing tool
is used. Large lumps of fat or cooled ingredients MUST be
cut into small parts before they are placed into the bowl or
damage can occur to the mixing tool(s).
44
Correct use of tools:
Whips should never be struck
against hard objects, this will
decrease the life of the tool.
Recommended applications for tools:
Whip Beater Hook
Cream
Egg Whites
Mayonnaise
and the like.
Cakes
Waffles
Muffins
and the like.
Pizza
Bread
Donut
Doughs and
the like.
Cleaning:
The mixer should be cleaned daily or after use.The
mixer should be cleaned with a soft cloth and clean
water. Sulphonated soaps should be used with caution
as they destroy the mixer's lubricants.
Maintenance and Lubrication:
The variable speed pulleys must be lubricated regularly, i.e. a
lubrication interval of approx. 60 hours of operation or once a
week.
Lubrication of variable speed pulleys:
-Start the mixer and increase the speed to approx. 50%. Stop
the mixer and open the lid on the top of the mixer. On the top of
each of the two pulley set shafts is a grease nipple (fig. 5 point
1). Press grease through the grease nipples until the grease
gun feels hard to press or until grease comes out between the
shaft and the pulleys.
-Start the mixer, and set the speed back to low ..speed.
-Stop the mixer and fill the grease gun with new grease so that
it is ready for next time.
Lubrication of other movable parts:
The movable parts of the bowl arms, the shaft and the lifting
rod must also be lubricated with oil. Remove the rear covering
and lubricate the marked points with an oil can. (fig.5 pkt.2)
Grease Types:
-Grease for the pulley set shafts: Lubriplate # 1200-2
Never use high pressure cleaning for the mixer.
Bowls and tools of aluminium must not be washed with
strong alkaline detergents (pH not to exceed 9.0).
The soap suppliers can recommend the correct type of
soap.
The mixer should be unplugged before cleaning to prevent accidental starting while cleaning.
The inside of the beater shaft should be cleaned once
a day with warm, soapy water.
Dough hook Cleaning: Special care
should be given to cleaning the dough
hook. We recommend that it be
cleaned and sanitized in a commercial
dish machine. An alternate cleaning
procedure is to vigorously scrub the
hook with a hot.water and detergent
solution. Use a heavy bristled brush.
After cleaning, sanitize the hook by
rinsing it with a 50 ppm solution of
sodium hypochlorite.
-On repair of the planetary head: Grease the toothed wheel and
the toothed rim with Nye Gel 868VH,(PN 868VH), the needle
bearings in the planetary head must not be lubricated with this
type of grease, they should be lubricated with PN Sapphire 2.
Do not use any another type of grease than the one stated
here.

List of Errors
Adjustment of special v-belt:
The distance (X) is only indicative as it depends on the tolerance of the special V-belt
.
1. Start by tightening the v-belts (*).
2. Ti ghte n th e spe c ial V- belt (A) by m o vin g
one or two washers from (V) to (T).
3. Star t th e mix e r a n d le a ve i t ru n nin g whi l e
the nut (U) is tightened completely.
4. On t h e f r ont p ull e y se t th e stu d (E ) on t he
va r ispe e d c o llar (F) must be p lace d in s ide t he
lower fork (G) and on the rear pulley set outsi d e th e fo r k fo r be l t ti g hte n er ( B ), ( both mus t
point backwards).
5. Tol eran c es i n th e tr a nsmi s sio n mig h t c a use
the special V-belt (A) to hit the pins (Z) of the
pulley sets when the speed has been adjusted. In such cases the distance (X) must be
reduced. (+ or - 1/8" of 12 1/4")
6. Then follow the section: “Adjustment of
speed”
Possible Solutions
A rattling sound from the closed part of the mixer. Adjustment of special v-belt
The mixer starts “striking” when kneading dough Adjustment of special v-belt
which normally causes no problems.
The mixer changes its speed by itself. Adjustment of special v-belt
The minimum and the maximum speeds are changing. Adjustment of speed.
The bowl is too tight or too loose. Adjustment of bowl xing
The tool hits the sides of the bowl.
Adjustment of bowl centering
...................................................................................................................................or damaged tool.
The tool hits the bottom of the bowl. Adjustment of bowl height
...................................................................................................................................or damaged tool.
Prior to a possible repair or adjustment, switch off the mixer by disconnecting the power cable.
Adjustment of speed:
1 . Th e st o p sc r ews (J) o n t h e sp e ed l ever shou ld b e adj u ste d so
th a t th e me a sure m ent (H) i s 1 / 8" o n th e fro n t a n d th e re a r pu l ley,
at low a nd h igh s pee d , re s pec t ivel y. Tigh t en t h e c o unte r nu t s (K )
when the speed is correctly adjusted.
2. Tolerances in the transmission might cause that the special
V-belt (A) is hitting the pins of the pulley sets (Z) when the speed
has been adjusted. In such cases the distance (X) must be reduced, see “Adjustment of special v-belt”, and the speed must
be readjusted.
