I hope you enjoyed this. I learned a few things about my mixer while doing this. I hope I didn't take up too much room with this...

Thank You . . .
I thoroughly enjoyed looking at the manual. I had never seen the ice cream maker attachment before. Thank you for your time and effort.

Yes, thanks very much. I know how much time and effort it can take to scan things like that, and I'm sure many will also appreciate your contribution.
By the way, I have that same toaster as pictured on page 39!

All those attachments...
I think it's a sign of the times that this mixer - and other products - came with so many attachments. My old Kirby vacuum also comes with a number of attachments. I'm thinking the trend was such for several reasons: good quality electric motors at the time were expensive and hard to come by. Also, the company could increase sales and profits by offering the customer these various attachments, many of which were not available as stand alone products. Nowadays, of course, nearly all those attachment functions can be obtained with stand-alone products that take up not much more space than the Sunbeam attachments must have taken.
My Kitchenaid mixer has an optional attachment I didn't see with the Sunbeam: a grain mill. I may be using it to make brown and white rice flours for wheat gluten free baking/cooking. There is also a pasta maker available with the Kitchenaid - which I didn't see for the Sunbeam.

Sunbeam Attachments
I have seen every attachment for Sunbeams with two exceptions: the green bean slicer and grapefruit reamer. The ice cream freezer attachment is supposed to be used with a 3 qt or smaller ice cream freezer. The coffee grinder could have been used as a grain mill according to the literature in the booklet. The mixer pictured in the scan is a model 5 but the use & care literature is about a model 7. When a new model was created, they printed insert material and paper clipped it over the page that applied to the previous model. That way booklets weren't wasted. The recipes were the same until the model 9 booklet was printed. Most of the attachments were discontinued with model 9 introduction. Recipes in the models 10 & 11 booklets were the same. The booklet was revised for the model 12 and the V-14 had the same recipes with same settings both being 12 speed mixers. The model EM had most of the same cake recipes but not the cookie and bread recipes that would shorten the life of the motor.

Attachment vs. Stand alone appliances
For the cost of Kitchenaid's can opener attachment you can buy 2 or 3 electric can openers.

Thank you for taking the time to scan everything in. Quite an education for me!!
Thanks for posting that.
Love those old manuals, not just for the pictures etc but the writing and the now passe terms and verbage.
Escalloped potatoes anyone.
Heretofore coffee making has always required
In the can opener section it talks about opening cans which have been heated first in fact saying that is the best way for canned soups, corn etc.. Strange, I wonder why
and lastly to find many of those attachments now, very difficult and some near impossible.

I thought the attachment for the separating of peas from the hulls was pretty neat. If anything, I thought one or two of you would have had that coffee maker...
The verbage is so 40's. Talking about the ladies in the part about the silver polisher. Try using that stuff in a modern manual...

Thanks for the scans. We've got the model 5B. It doesn't have the beater ejector, you've just got to grab them and pull them out. Now I know why my juicer doesn't fit right, it's too new. It seems there's not only a difference in the beaters and bowl after the late 1940s, but they changed the power take-off too.

40's Verbiage - American idiom
Such gems as:
"It takes no end of tiresome difficult work of your hands."
"All done in a jiffy with results beyond comparison with hand or other methods."
"Attaches to Mixmaster in a jiffy."
"Causes no muss, in fact beats any other way of shelling peas all hollow."
Now, I can't remember when I heard ANYONE say that anything or anybody was "beat all hollow". LOL...

Appliance Manuals today
Manuals today have far fewer words and lots more pictures. I find that says something about our society today that isn't very positive. I see it as "dummying" down. Granted today manuals have to cover safety issues today to comply with rules and regulations today.
