Hobart Mixer HL1400C

WARNING! Disconnect the electrical power to the mixer and follow lockout / tagout procedures

New mixer bowls and accessories (beaters, whips, and dough arms) should be thoroughly washed with hot water and a mild soap solution, rinsed with either a mild soda or vinegar solution and thoroughly rinsed with clear water before being used. This cleaning procedure should also be followed for bowls and agitators before whipping egg whites or whole eggs

The mixer should be thoroughly cleaned daily. DO NOT use a hose to clean the mixer; it should be washed with a clean, damp cloth. The base allows ample room for cleaning under the mixer. The apron may be removed for cleaning by loosening the thumb screws. DO NOT wipe down slideways when cleaning

The drip cup-splash guard assembly should be removed periodically and wiped clean
