To install the attachments, we simply pushed them onto the shaft. The first time we installed them, it was a tight fit, but it seemed to get easier after a few times.

With all the plastic on the other attachments, we prefer washing those by hand, as well. To the left of the “off” setting on the dial is the fold option, which turns the mixer on at a slower speed, and turns off when released.

With other mixers, we always had to turn an attachment either to the left or right to just the right alignment to unlock it and then pull it out. The lack of locking attachments isn’t a big deal, but in our opinion isn’t as safe.

Fortunately, because of the shorter bowl and the high tilt, the mixing attachments cleared the bowl enough so we could remove the bowl with the attachment in place, without risking spillage.
