Varimixer 25082-224001 Meat Mincer

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Place the housing on the edge of a table, the opening upwards, when the meat mincer is to be assembled.
Ensure that the rubber ring is placed correctly in the housing. Do not use the meat mincer, if the rubber ring is missing.
The shaft of the feed screw should be lubricated with grease before the feed screw is inserted into the housing. Use e.g. paraffin oil or castor oil, never salad oil.
The knife set is to be mounted in the following order: Precutter, knife, and disc.
The knife is marked with an > 0 < or an arrow showing the direction of rotation.
This marking faces forwards, when the knife is correctly mounted.
The thread of the housing should be lubricated with grease before the distance ring and the ring are mounted. Use e.g. paraffin oil or castor oil, never salad oil.
If a sausage tube is used, this should be mounted between the distance ring andthe ring.
The ring should only be screwed slightly on by hand.
Never use a tool to tighten the ring, and never use a hammer.
When the meat mincer has been assembled, it is mounted in the attachment engagement hub of the mixer. The meat mincer must be pressed into the attachment engagement hub before the thumb screw is tightened.

For safety reasons always use the plunger when working with the meat mincer.
Discs must be at least 5 mm thick and the holes must not exceed 8 mm.
The receiving tray (extra equipment) must be placed on the housing before the meat mincer is mounted on the mixer.
When the meat mincer is in use, the mixer should run at lowest speed.
Bones and frozen meat must not be put into the meat mincer.
The meat mincer must not be used for making breadcrumbs or the like.
Regarding cleaning and maintenance, see back page.

CLEANING:

After use the meat mincer is disassembled and cleaned. Washing should be done with a soft brush and pure water. Synthetic detergents should be used with care, as they destroy the lubricants of the bearings.
Do not use dishwasher for cleaning of the meat mincer, as the detergent can attack the aluminum parts of the meat mincer and destroy the lubricants of the bearings.
When the meat mincer is dry after washing, the shaft ends of the feed screw as well as the knife set should be rubbed with grease to avoid formation of rust. Use e.g. paraffin oil or castor oil, never salad oil.
If the meat mincer is washed in hot water, the parts should be cooled before the meat mincer is assembled.

The attachment engagement hub of the mixer should also be cleaned after use of the meat mincer. It is important that the hole for meat juice is cleaned.

If the feed screw is stuck, when the meat mincer is to be disassembled, it can be pulled out by inserting a hook or a similar tool in the hole of the feed screw shaft.

CUTTING TOOL SET:

It is recommended to use the cutting tools in sets. If you have more than one disc, you should have a knife and a precutter for each disc.

Turning of disc and precutter must be avoided, always let the same side face the knife.

When the knife is new or newly grinded, the disc and the precutter should be turned so that the new cutting surfaces are facing the new knife.

When the knife is to be grinded or replaced, the entire set should be grinded or replaced.
Operating Instructions

The knife must be replaced or grinded when the wearing surface on the side of the knife is more than 1 mm. If this is not done, the mixer can be damaged, as the friction in the meat mincer is increased when the knife is worn.
