Frequently Asked Questions - VT-1676 W Vitek

How do I assemble the meat grinder?

Insert the feeder screw into the mincer head, place the cross blade with the sharp side outward, select a grate and align its groove with the clamp, then tighten the nut. Attach the head to the body by turning counterclockwise until it clicks, and finally place the food tray.

What should I do if the grinder gets blocked?

Switch off the unit using the On/Off button, unplug it, and remove the blocking ingredient. Alternatively, use the REVERSE function: turn off, wait 5-6 seconds, press the REV button, and after clearing block, return to normal operation.

Can I grind frozen meat?

Frozen meat should be thawed before grinding. For best results, cut it into strips or cubes after defrosting. Never grind bones or hard materials like ginger.

How do I make sausages using this grinder?

Prepare minced meat and insert the feeder screw. Use the sausage attachment instead of grates and blade. Thread a softened natural casing onto the attachment, tie a knot, and push minced meat through while guiding the filled casing away. Wet the casing if it dries.

What are the kebbe attachments used for?

The kebbe attachments (17 and 18) allow you to make hollow rolls for Middle Eastern dishes. Prepare a cover mixture (meat, flour, spices), feed it through the attachment, then cut rolls, fill, and fry.

How should I clean the meat grinder?

After use, switch off and unplug. Press the clamp button, remove the head, and disassemble. Wash removable parts in warm soapy water (some are dishwasher safe). Wipe the body with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the body or use abrasives.

Why does the motor stop during use?

The grinder has an overheating protection system. If the motor stops, it may have overheated. Turn off, unplug, and let it cool for 20-30 minutes. Check the auto cut-off button before restarting.

Can I use the grinder continuously for more than 5 minutes?

No, the appliance should not run for more than 5 minutes continuously. After 5 minutes, allow it to cool down completely before further use to prevent overheating.

What is the reverse button for?

The REV button activates a reverse rotation to help remove blockages when meat gets stuck in the feeder screw. Always switch off the unit first, wait 5-6 seconds, then press REV.

How do I store the grinder to prevent rust?

After cleaning and drying, oil the metal grates and blade with vegetable oil to protect from oxidation. Store in a dry place.
