Motor Speed Adjustment
The motor tends to speed up over time and needs adjusting back down to 60rpm at the slowest speed control setting on the side, by screwing in the two slotted screws clockwise, accessible through the plastic casing under the motor, using a long thin flat ended screwdriver (Health & Safety warning - with an insulated handle)
Try a quarter turn clockwise each then turn the machine back over and try it on the slowest speed, put your hand on the mixing attachment holder and let your fingers gently catch the protruding bit each time it comes around while watching a second hand, you are looking for about 60rpm and the movement at this minimum speed will be somewhat erratic. There will also be a burning smell from the resistor but don't worry about this. Once the flour has burned off the smell will go.
If it still exceeds 60rpm on the slowest speed control setting then turn the machine over and turn the two screws in a bit more, but evenly on each side to keep the centrifugal switch bracket evenly balanced.
Continue until about 60rpm is achieved and ignore the burning smell.
