• Attachments are not mixing properly:
  • Verify that the correct attachment is being used for the task (e.g., dough hook for heavy doughs).
  • Ensure the attachment is securely installed on the shaft.
  • The quantity of ingredients might be too small or too large for the bowl. Adjust as necessary.
• Machine is vibrating excessively:
  • Ensure the machine is placed on a flat, stable, and level surface.
  • Reduce the amount of ingredients if the load is too heavy.
  • Lower the speed setting.
• Loud noise during operation:
  • Some noise is normal, especially with heavy loads or at higher speeds.
  • Check for any foreign objects in the bowl or around the attachment.
  • If the noise is unusual or excessive, discontinue use and contact customer support.

If the problem persists after checking these points, please contact SUPERLEX customer service.
