To assemble the KitchenAid KSMSIA Ice Shaver, attach the ice shaving attachment to the power hub of your KitchenAid stand mixer. Ensure the blade and housing are securely in place. Follow the user manual for detailed instructions.
Use standard ice cubes that are approximately 1-inch in size. Avoid using large blocks of ice or crushed ice, as they can affect the performance of the shaver.
Disassemble the ice shaver by removing the blade and housing. Hand wash all removable parts with warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly. Do not submerge the main unit in water.
Ensure the blade is sharp and correctly installed. Check if the ice cubes are the appropriate size and not too hard. Adjust the blade positioning if necessary, following the user guide.
No, do not store the ice shaver in the freezer. It should be stored in a dry place to avoid moisture buildup, which could damage the components.
Adjust the texture by changing the blade height. This can be done by loosening the screw on the blade housing and moving the blade up or down to achieve the desired texture.
The ice shaver is compatible with all KitchenAid stand mixers that have a power hub. Refer to your mixer's manual to ensure compatibility.
If the blade becomes dull, it may need to be replaced. Contact KitchenAid customer support for replacement parts and instructions on how to change the blade.
The ice shaver can handle a small batch of ice cubes at a time. Shaving too much ice at once can cause the unit to overload. Process the ice in batches for best results.
Regularly clean the unit after each use, ensure all parts are dry before storage, and periodically check the blade for sharpness. Replace any worn parts as needed to maintain optimal performance.
