Machine Identification
The identification details of the appliance can be found on the nameplate attached to the meat grinder's housing:
Type Machine model
No. Serial number
V Supply voltage
kW Power rating
Hz Electrical frequency in Hertz
% ED Duty cycle (per unit of time)
Make sure you have this information to hand when contacting your service provider or the manufacturer in writing or by telephone. You must also state the date of purchase and the dealer from whom you purchased the appliance and provide detailed information on any faults that have occurred.
Installation
The meat grinder must be placed on a level, smooth, vibration-free, and non-slip surface that is stable and sturdy enough to ensure safe operation and support the machine.
Leave adequate free space around the meat grinder to ensure easy operation, cleaning, and maintenance. Leave a space of at least 300 mm free around the machine.
The slicer works properly in places with a relative humidity of less than 80% and near heat sources at temperatures up to 30 °C.
Before switching on the meat grinder, check that the cutting set is locked using the locking lever, handle, or button.
The union nut must exert slight pressure on the perforated disk, which, in turn, must press on the knife.
NEVER screw the union nut too tight. This may cause rapid wear of the knife and perforated disk.
Do not operate the meat grinder when it is empty, i.e., without meat inside. Doing so would result in overheating of the perforated disk and blade, accelerate their wear, and even cause them to break. The machine user is solely responsible for any damage caused by improper use.
Wiring
Before plugging in the machine, check that the machine's power rating specified on its nameplate matches the specifications of your local power grid.
In the event of a mismatch, never connect the machine to the power supply, as this may cause damage to the machine and lead to fire!
Appliances with AC electric motors are fitted with a safety power plug. Replacing the power plug is not permitted. If you replace the plug, your appliance will no longer comply with EC provisions, and your warranty will be void.
Electrical connection of appliances with AC electric motors and subsequent check-ups must be carried out by a qualified electrician using the wiring diagram supplied with the appliance.
After switching the machine on, check that the auger rotates counterclockwise.
Acceptance testing
Before you start processing meat, press the start and stop buttons and check that the machine starts and stops properly.
OPERATING FUNCTIONS
Use
The FLC series meat grinders are designed to process fresh meat.
We recommend preparing meat cuts that are roughly the same size. Cut the meat into roughly goulash-sized pieces. For optimal results, run the meat through the meat grinder twice if necessary. Fatty meats should be ground only once.
The machine should be operated continuously for no longer than 24 minutes (the duty cycle is 40% per hour). The machine must be allowed to cool down for roughly the same period before you can resume operation.
The machine's duty cycle is reduced when processing very tough meats!
Processing too much meat at a time inevitably affects the processing quality and shortens the machine's service life!
Operating the machine continuously for shorter periods also shortens the cooling intervals.
The machine may only be used in its original condition and with original parts. Dismantling or deactivating any mechanical or electrical safety devices is not permitted. Before starting the machine, ensure there are no loose electrical connections, i.e., provisional or uninsulated cables. If you notice any signs of damage to the safety devices, defects, malfunctions, broken parts, incorrect operation, unusual noises, or similar, shut down the machine immediately and contact ADE for repair or replacement.
Operating the Meat Grinder
Before feeding meat into the machine, check that the filling tray is in place. Use the meat pusher provided to press the meat down into the machine. If the auger area becomes jammed or any foreign object falls into the feed chute, switch off the appliance immediately and remove the foreign object.
Never put your hands or other objects, such as sticks, cooking utensils, etc., into the feed chute! There is a risk of injury!
Switching the Meat Grinder On and Off
- To switch the meat grinder on, press the green button (1).
- To switch the meat grinder off, press the red button (2).
Using the Machine
Place a meat container (or a similar container; not included) under the cutting set to collect the ground meat. Before processing, cut the meat into cubes that can easily pass through the feed inlet. Switch on the meat grinder. Put the pieces of meat into the filling tray and gently push them into the feed inlet using the meat pusher.
NEVER use your hands or other aids to push meat into the feed inlet!
Put the meat into the feed chute gradually and constantly to ensure smooth processing without overloading the machine. The ground meat is forced out of the meat grinder. The coarseness of the processed meat is determined by the diameter of the holes in the perforated disk. The smaller the holes, the finer the ground meat.
Fitting or using perforated disks with a hole diameter greater than 8 mm with the FLC series meat grinders is not permitted!
Fitting and Removing the Cutting Set
Always unplug the machine from the power supply before fitting the cutting set.
Handle the knife with the utmost care when fitting and removing it. You may cut your hands if you handle it without due care!
The cutting set is fitted as follows:
natural_image
Close-up of a mechanical device with a black arrow pointing to a component (no visible text or symbols)-
Push the auger housing firmly into the machine body and secure it using the locking screw to be inserted into the side of the housing from above (see illustration).
-
Put the plastic spacer ring onto the auger guide to minimize friction between the auger and the housing.
-
Fit the auger into the auger housing. Turn the auger slightly by hand to check that it fits snugly into the guide of the auger housing.
-
Insert the grinder knife into the auger with the knife blade facing to the outside (in the direction of the perforated disk).
-
Fit the perforated disk. The perforated disk can only be fitted when the notch on the perforated disk is aligned with the guide on the auger housing.
-
The sausage nozzle is attached in front of the machine.
-
Fit the union nut and tighten it. The union nut must exert slight pressure on the perforated disk, which, in turn, must press on the knife. Ensure the union nut is NEVER too tight to prevent rapid wear of the knife and perforated disk.
-
Attach the filling tray to the feed inlet.
NEVER screw the union nut too tight. This may cause rapid wear of the knife and perforated disk.
To remove the cutting set, proceed in reverse order.
Changing the Cutting Set
The meat grinder is versatile in that you can use perforated disks with different hole diameters to achieve the desired coarseness of meat.
Always fit the union nut at the very end.
You must fit the cutting set strictly in the order described above.
Fitting or using perforated disks with a hole diameter greater than 8 mm with the FLC series meat grinders is not permitted!
Make sure the thickness of the perforated disk on the machine outlet is never less than 5 mm.
Operating Time
These machines are suitable for about 100 catering staff members, depending on the model (FLC70). These values are merely recommendations based on experience and may vary depending on the application.
The maximum duty cycle is 40% (24 minutes per hour). The electric motor must then be allowed sufficient time to cool down. Operating the machine continuously for shorter periods also shortens the cooling intervals.
The machine's duty cycle is reduced when grinding very tough meats.
CLEANING AND CARE
Cleaning
For the sake of hygiene, the meat grinder must be kept clean at all times. The machine must be thoroughly cleaned after each use and before processing new portions of meat. Always pull the plug out of the socket before cleaning the machine. It is never enough just to switch off the machine by pressing the stop button.
When cleaning the machine housing, only use a cloth moistened with warm water at about 60 °C and a non-foaming, eco-friendly dishwashing detergent with a neutral pH of 7-8. Only use food-grade cleaning agents and disinfectants of approved quality to clean the machine. Adhere to the relevant instructions when using cleaning products! After cleaning, thoroughly wipe the machine dry with a cloth moistened with clean water.
Thorough cleaning of the meat grinder and its components is only possible by removing the cutting set from the housing. Avoid stacking the individual components on top of each other to prevent damage. After dismantling individual parts of the cutting set, disinfect them by placing them in an approved water solution for about 30 minutes, then rinse them with warm water and allow them to dry thoroughly.
The meat grinder, including the auger housing and auger shaft, must never be cleaned in the dishwasher!
Never clean the meat grinder with water spray!
Do not clean the appliance by immersing it fully or even partially in water!
You must never use a water jet or high-pressure cleaner to clean the machine or any parts!
Maintenance
Always unplug the appliance from the power supply before attempting any maintenance work. It is never enough just to switch off the machine by pressing the stop button. The appliance or its components should only be dismantled and fitted on a clean working surface that is free from slipping, snagging, or entanglement hazards. The working area must be free from loose materials lying around.
Lubricating the Drive Unit
The machine is supplied with pre-lubricated moving and drive parts.
Check the oil level once every six months if necessary. You only need to refill oil if it has leaked, for example, after the meat grinder has been stored upside down.
Contact your service provider or the manufacturer for further guidance.
Checking the Safety Devices
The proper functioning of the safety guards and devices is essential for the safe operation of the appliance.
Check whether the machine starts and stops flawlessly every day before using it.
You should also check all safety guards (union nut with cutting set, filling tray) for proper function and effectiveness every day before using the appliance.
Any faults identified during check-ups should be reported to the supervisor without delay. The supervisor must take the appliance out of operation and, if necessary, contact customer service.
Storage and Disposal
When the appliance is not used for a long time, it must be disconnected from the power supply and thoroughly cleaned as described above.
The meat grinder must not be stored in damp areas for extended periods and must be protected from weather influences.
The appliance is made from non-toxic and harmless materials.
Metal parts must be separated from plastic parts and disposed of separately.
TRAINING
The adult machine operator performing the installation must be adequately trained in the use, cleaning, and maintenance of the machine and be aware of potential hazards resulting from improper use.
The training will be given by the suitably authorized and trained installer familiar with the European community machine standards.
