USING THE POWER TAKE-OFF (PTO)
The Power Take-Off (PTO) hub (Figure 1 [7]) accommodates #12 tapered attachments such as a
vegetable slicer and shredder, or a meat and food chopper. The mixers speed control lever also controls
the PTO drive speed.
Before installing attachments, turn the mixer off and disconnect the electrical power supply. Remove the
PTO cap and loosen the thumb screw (Figure 1 [8]) on the PTO hub. Insert the attachment with a slight
twist until it is firmly in place. Tighten the thumb screw. Be sure to read and follow all safety
instructions provided for the attachments that you operate on the PTO.
SAFETY NOTES:
When grinding meat, chopper attachments must never run faster than speed “1”.
For vegetables, attachments may run at a higher speed.
Always turn the mixer off and disconnect the electrical power supply to install or remove the
attachment.
Always return to speed “1” before shutting the mixer off.
Cover the PTO hub with the PTO cap when the PTO is not in use.
