V.- KEY ELEMENTS IN MIXING/GRINDING QUALITY PRODUCT

MODELS: M-32, M-32-3

The meat grinder can grind at a rate of 55 lb/min (25 kg/min) at the first grinding using a 3/8" plate (not provided) and 28 lb/min (13 kg/min) for the second grinding.

MODELS: M-32-5

The meat grinder can grind at a rate of 63 lb/min (29 kg/min) at the first grinding using a 3/8" plate (not provided) and 30 lb/min (14 kg/min) for the second grinding

To extend the life of the equipment and get high quality product is recommended the next tips:

• Periodically verify the plate (16) and knife (15) sharp.
• Grinding Unit must be free of food debris.
• The tension on the head ring should be firm but not too tight. Over tightening can lead to excessive friction, motor wear and/or poor product appearance.
• Clean the grinding unit (including headstock) after use by removing it from the equipment.
• Keep the equipment in a clean and sanitary condition while is not being used.
• It is recommended that meat used for grinding is between 1°C a -3°C (33.8°F a 26.6°F)

CAUTION!:

Usage caution and recommendation for grinding

1.- Utilize 3/8" plate or bigger for first grinding.

IMPORTANT!:

Fig. A. The size plate is located on the edge

2.- For a second grinding is possible to use a 3/16" plate or smaller.

WARNING!:

Do not use smaller plates than 3/8" in the first grinding to avoid equipment damages

IMPORTANT!:

This equipment has the capability of grind different kinds of food as long as it does not have a sticky consistency and/or prone to harden in the process, since it could get stuck on the components and potentially get jammed (e.g. hydrated chickpea, hydrated corn, food with pasty consistency, etc.)

IMPORTANT!:

For the first time usage you must grind at least 2 pounds of scrap clean product to remove any metallic or foreign debris.

VI.- CLEANING

For cleaning the Grinding Unit, follow the next procedure:

1. Disassemble main components as explained before on the installation section.
2. Using a soft bristle brush not provided -See Fig 4, clean with adequate detergent each component, specially inside headstock (10) to eliminate waste and debris of food.
3. Wash every component with plenty of water.
4. Dry completely. Don't let soap cleaners dry on the surface.
5. It is important after doing this procedure, to lubricate the knife (15) and plate (16) with the included mineral oil. Assemble again.

FIG.6 TIP FOR CLEANING ROUGHNESS PARTS

IMPORTANT!:

Avoid use of abrasive cleaners, acid, fibers, chlorides (such as chlorine bleach), on stainless steel surfaces will cause pitting, corrosion, and metal discoloration. Allowing salty solutions to evaporate and dry on stainless steel may also contribute to corrosive conditions.

VII.- MAINTENANCE

This equipment is designed to have a minimal maintenance, but, it's important to check the next points:

1. The knife (15) and plate's hole (16) always must have sharp edges. Replace them after certain period of use or if you notice the quality of the grinded meat is not as fine as the first time.
2. Replace the knife and plate when assembly becomes loose even though the Ring (17) is totally tight.
3. If the power cord (3) or the plug is damaged, it must be replaced by an authorized service technician or qualified personnel to avoid risk of electric shock.
   4.- Lubricate the entrance of the headstock in the transmission cover when if you see that the approved grease (24) has been consumed by use or cleaning. Apply only food contact approved grease contained in the bottle. It is important to always keep lubricated this area to be easy the disassembling of headstock.
   5.- The gear box of this grinder is sealed and should be repaired or opened only by approved technician, the transmission oil should be changed at least every two years of normal operation.

CAUTION!

Always unplug or disconnect the machine from the power supply before cleaning or perform any maintenance.
