Frequently Asked Questions - FL82N ADE

How do I clean the meat grinder after use?

Disassemble all parts and wash them in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. The blades and discs should be handled with care. Do not immerse the motor housing in water.

What types of meat can I grind with the FL82N?

You can grind beef, pork, chicken (with bones), lamb, and fish. Ensure the meat is cut into strips that fit the feed tube and remove any large bones or tendons.

Can I grind bones with this meat grinder?

The FL82N is designed for soft bones like chicken or fish bones. Hard bones (beef or pork) can damage the blades and motor. Always check the manual guidelines.

How do I use the sausage stuffing attachment?

Attach the stuffing tube after removing the grinding disc. Place the sausage casing onto the tube and feed the ground meat through. Use the pusher to guide meat.

Is the meat grinder dishwasher safe?

Intended use

Your ADE meat mincer is a quality product and is intended for use in canteens and large kitchens.

It is a meat mincer used to process meat products, which must not be frozen and must be boneless. Other foodstuffs such as fruit, vegetables, bread, nuts etc. may not be processed.

The machine may only be used in its original condition and with original parts.

Exclusion of use:

• The machine must never be used for processing frozen or bone-in meat products.
• The machine must not be used to process any food other than meat products or any other goods and substances that are not food products.
• The operating environment temperature must not be below +5°C.

The machine may only be used in accordance with its intended use. All applications with the machine that are not mentioned in the chapter "Intended use" are considered as non-intended use in the same way as non-observance of the safety instructions. For any resulting damage to property and personal injury caused by misuse, the user of the device and not the manufacturer is liable.

The use of other components or original components not supplied by the manufacturer will void the manufacturer's warranty.

Installing and setting up the meat mincer

Check the scope of delivery for completeness immediately after receipt of the machine. Carefully remove the machine and accessories from the packaging and remove all packaging materials.

The scope of delivery includes:

Inspecting the contents of the box

➢ 1 FL series meat mincer: incl. 1 worm housing

incl. 1 worm

➢ 5-piece coded UNGER cutting set: 1 pre-cutter

2 cross blades

1 perforated disc, 3 mm hole diameter

1 perforated disc, 8 mm hole diameter

➢ 2 (FL82) or 1 (FL98) spacer ring(s)
1 hand wheel
▶ 1 filling tray
▶ 1 collecting tray
1 darner
▶ 1 withdrawing hook
▶ 1 operating manual

Installing the meat mincer

The meat mincer is delivered in a stable packaging box that is strong enough for transport.

Take the meat mincer out of the packaging. Due to its weight, this should be done by two adult persons.

Place the machine on a working surface that provides sufficient strength and stability to ensure adequate safety, taking into account the machine's own weight.

Depending on the size of the operator, the machine should not be too high to allow comfortable and effortless operation!

The machine is most conveniently positioned when the switch points towards the operator and the outlet opens to the left.

Start-Up

First of all, it is absolutely necessary to place the filling tray (38) on the housing, since the meat mincer cannot be operated without it.

Then, the seat of the hand wheel (33) must be checked.

For safe operation of the cutting set, the hand wheel is first tightened slightly and then released by approx. 5°.

Insert the plug into a suitable three-phase socket and the machine is then ready for use.

Operating the meat mincer

Power On and Off

Symbol Bezeichnung Funktion
	Arrow-Up-Button„Forward“	Press this button to start operation of the worm.The worm now starts to turn counter-clockwise.
	OFF-Button Press this button to stop the worm.
	Arrow-Down-Pushbutton„Reverse“	To Reverse the worm (in case of a jam in the worm section) press this pushbutton.

The worm must turn counterclockwise when switched on (Arrow-Up-Button pressed)!

In case a reverse run of the worm is occurred (due to the different layout of the local power grids) 2 of the 3 power phases in the plug must then be swapped by a specialist!

Operating the meat mincer

Feeding must always be carried out with the filling tray installed. The supplied darner must be used for pressing. In case of a jam in the worm section or if a foreign object enters the filling shaft, this situation can be corrected by pressing the Arrow-Down-Pushbutton (reverse).

Never reach into the filling shaft with your hands or insert other objects such as sticks, cooking utensils, etc. into the filling shaft! There is a risk of injury!

Never run the mincer without material being cut!

A withdrawing hook is included for easier removal of the cutting set and worm.

After removing the hand wheel, this can be pulled over the worm pin and locked by a 90° rotation. The worm and the cutting set can then be slowly pulled out from the worm cylinder.

The spacer ring, perforated disc, cross-shaped blade and pre-cutter can then be removed.

Now, the worm housing (28) is removed by simply pulling it out. After turning the locking lever (7) above the switch from bottom to top (clockwise), it can be removed forwards (without tilting sideways).

Reassembling the cutting set

Reassembly is done in reverse order.

First insert the worm housing (28). The worm housing is fixed by turning the locking lever (7) from top to bottom.

The worm (34) is inserted in such a way that the stub shaft protrudes from the machine to attach the knife and perforated disc. Pushing it all the way back, the worm shaft is rotated until it latches with its oval pin at the rear end into the uniform slot of the drive.

The perforated disc (39) is now pushed onto the stub shaft with the 3 large oval openings (pre-cutter) and rotated so that the rectangular notch on the edge of the disc slides over the uniformly shaped ridge of the worm housing (this also applies to the subsequent discs).

This is followed by the cross blade (40). Care has to be taken that the cutting edges point in the forward direction of rotation.

Then, place the perforated disc (41) on the stub shaft.

This is followed by the second cross knife (40). Make sure that it is in the correct position again (cutting edges point in the direction of rotation).

Then the second perforated disc (42) is added.

Then, place the spacer ring (6) in this way, that the nose of the spacer ring engages the notch of the perforated disc (42) provided for this purpose.

The hand wheel (33) forms the end, which is first slightly tightened and then released by approx. 5°. (The latter is particularly important because the worm shaft must have some clearance in the longitudinal direction for proper functioning of the mincer).

NOTE on the use of spacer rings:

One spacer ring is always used with the FL82. The narrow one is used when operating with a 5-part cutting set, the wider one when operating with a 3-part cutting set.

For the FL98, operation with a 5-piece cutting set is done WITHOUT a spacer ring and operation with a 3-piece cutting set is done with the spacer ring.

Changing the cutting set

Individual perforated discs enable versatile use, depending on the desired cutting effect. In any case, the enclosed coded spacer ring (6) must be used and attached as the last part in front of the hand wheel (33).

Care has to be taken that the sequence of assembly of the cutting set takes place in accordance with the exploded view.

Only coded perforated discs may be used, where the hole diameter must not exceed 8 mm!

The perforated discs must not be ground thinner than 5 mm!

Cleaning, maintenance and servicing, disposal

In principle, the machine must be switched off before cleaning, maintenance and service and the power plug must be disconnected from the mains.

Disassembling the meat mincer for cleaning

The hand wheel can be unscrewed by turning it to the left. Thereafter, the distance ring and the first perforated disc is removed. By pulling on the worm shaft, the worm can now be removed completely with the cutting set.

If only the cross blade is removed, special care is required. There is a risk of injury (cutting injury).

Now remove the worm housing. After unlocking, the worm housing can be pulled out of the housing.

Cleaning

Before first use, thoroughly clean the machine with a damp cloth and lukewarm water.

Depending on the load and frequency of use, the machine must be cleaned regularly – at least after each daily work sequence.

All parts and cavities that come into contact with meat, where deposits can form, must be cleaned.

Use a damp cloth (preferably a brush for some parts) and approx. 60° warm water for cleaning. For cleaning and disinfecting, choose only products or accessories that are food-grade and approved for this purpose. Follow the instructions for using these materials.

It is strictly prohibited to clean the slicing machine with products that can damage the health of the operator or the customer.

After removing the meat residues, all components must be cleaned with water and disinfectants. Rinse with warm water and rub the components up to drying.

Make sure that the parts do not hit one another to avoid damage.

For better and more effective disinfection, it is recommended to place the parts in a bath containing 3% NaCl hypotonic solution for about 30 minutes, then rinse with warm water and rub dry.

After such treatment, rinse with clean drinking water. Before assembling, ensure that all residues from the drive mechanism, including the housing wall, have been wiped out and that all parts have been completely rubbed dry.

All removable parts must also be cleaned in the dishwasher.

However, regular cleaning of the knives in the dishwasher can cause them to dull faster and thus require more frequent sharpening.

The machine must in no way be treated with a water jet or a steam pressure cleaner!

Water must never be sprayed directly into the drive!

Removable parts must not be cleaned in a dishwasher as the surface treatment may be destroyed.
