Operating the Mixer Mixing a Drink wWARNING Cut Hazard Always use metal container when mixing. Do not put spoon or other utensils in metal container when mixing. Failure to follow these instructions can result in cuts. Mixing a Drink You must read the "Mixer Safety" section before using the mixer. For best mixing results, use the Hamilton Beach Universal Container (#110E). Do not use a paper cup. The container fits the container guide which starts the motor. 1. Plug mixer into a grounded outlet. 2. Place the ingredients into the container. The basic milkshake recipe is: • 3 No. 24 scoops of ice cream • 4 ounces of very cold milk • 11⁄2 ounces of syrup 3. Select the desired speed using the 3-speed selector switch. 4. Position the container into the container guide and move the cup upward to automatically turn the motor on. Set the container down onto the cup rest. NOTE: You may also turn the motor ON and OFF using the pulse switch. 5. When the drink is completely mixed, lift the container up off the cup rest and pull down from the container guide. The motor will turn off. NOTE: Inspect agitator(s) daily. Replace agitator(s) every 90 days. Using the Container Rest Two-Position Container Rest The top container rest position is used when mixing with a standard container. In the top position, a standard container will fit into the container guide to lift the container guide pin against the actuator switch, allowing the motor to run. To turn off the motor, rest a standard container on the lower, or standby, container rest position. The lower container rest position may also be used when mixing with larger containers, or for storing standard containers when the mixer is not in use. NOTE: When container is not positioned as described above, you may also turn the motor on using the pulse switch. 4
