Meat Grinder

Safety hints and tips

• We recommend interrupting the operation from time to time, switch off the appliance and remove the food stuck on the attachments (or blocking the attachments).
• Never let the mincer running if the hopper is empty!
• Do not mince frozen meat.

Assembly
Assemble the mincer according to the intended use (for meat, smoked food / Kebbe
or slicing / grating ) and mount it on the main motor unit – see Figure 4. Apply reverse procedure to disassemble the mincer and to remove it from the motor unit head. When removing the grinder, you have to push the release button A3 first .

Meat mincing
The mincer can mince any type of meat, which is free of bones, tendons and skin. Choose appropriate accessories as required (B0, B1, B2, B3/4/5, B6, B11 and B12), follow the procedure indicated in Fig. 2. Mincing coarseness can be adjusted by using different mincing discs (B3, B4, B5) with various sizes of openings. Cut the meat in advance into cubes of about 2 x 2 x 2 cm. Put bowl under the mincer to catch the minced meat. Put the meat cubes into the hopper so that the spiral feeder B1 can take them without being blocked, and slightly push the meat down, using the pusher B11. Proceeding like this will prevent the motor unit from becoming overloaded.
Tips

• Regularly check if the mincing disc openings are passable during the meat processing. If the disc openings get blocked while mincing meats of various consistency (for example bacon and liver), the juices may flow along the screw feeder shaft inside the motor unit of the mincer. Therefore pay maximum attention to ensure smooth flow of the processed food through the mincing disc. If the flow is blocked, immediately switch off the mincer, disassemble the mincer and clean all components (fig. 5).
• If the appliance is blocked, first switch it off (we waiting for a while approx 30 sec.) and then use the reverse run function (A2 knob) to release the food.

Smoked foods (sausages, frankfurters), etc.
Choose appropriate accessories as required (B0, B1, B6, B9, B10, B11, B12 and B13), follow the procedure indicated in Fig. 2. Smoked foods size can be adjusted by using different adapters (B9) with various sizes of openings. Put the minced meat into hopper B12. Use the pusher B11 to slightly push the meat inside the mincer. Soak the sausage casings in warm water (for about 10 minutes) to improve their elasticity. Then put it „arranged in folds“ on the outlet piece. Let 5 cm at the end of the casing hang freely, and tie up or skewer it. Put the prepared mixture into the hopper and slightly push it down using the pusher B11. Proceed as appropriate for the respective smoked food (for example sausages, short sausages, etc.) or white pudding.
Tips

• We recommend two persons for this procedure. One puts the mixture inside, and the other holds the casing in the proper position on the outlet adapter B9. When filling the casing, proceed so that no air can get inside.
• If the outlet opening of the smoked food adapter B9 gets blocked, switch off the motor unit, remove the attachment and clean it.

Kebbe – meat tubes
Choose appropriate accessories as required (B0, B1, B6, B7, B8, B11 a B12), follow the procedure indicated in Fig. 2. Put the prepared minced meat into hopper B12.
If necessary, use the pusher B11 to push the meat down. The food processor will produce hollow tubes. Cut them to the desired length.

Adapter for slicing / grating of vegetables and fruits

Safety hints and tips

• Never push down the grated/sliced fruits or vegetables by fingers! Move the food along the feed tube by the pusher, slowly, while pushing down slightly.
• Be careful when handling the graters. They employ very sharp blades.
• Never use the graters to process hard materials, for example ice cubes, coffee / cereal /corn grains, spices, etc.
• When processing a large amount of food, check if the food is not cumulating above and below the grater.
• If the grating adapter is blocked, switch off the motor unit, disassemble the adapter body and clean it.

Assembly
Assemble the adapter and mount it on the driving unit head according to Figure 3 and 4. Apply reverse procedure to disassemble and remove the adapter from the driving unit head. When or removing the adapter, you have to push the release button A3 first.
Note: When graters are removed, they must be first partially rotated and then
unhooked from hooks.

Preparing the food
The attachments can be used for chopping, slicing, grating and scraping of almost any type of fruits or vegetables. You can use the slicing/chopping grater to process fruits, vegetables, cheese and food of similar structure. The cheese greater is designed for processing hard cheeses and making bread crumps.

Use
Put a suitable container under the grating adapter outlet. Chop the vegetables into pieces of the size fit for putting them inside the grating adapter feeding tube. Put the pieces into the adapter and slightly push by the pusher. The processed food is going out from the outlet into the provided container.
Tipy

• A small amount of food will remain on the grater after each use. This is normal and does not establish a reason for filing a complaint.
• First remove peels if processing citrus fruits.
• If you are chopping hard cheese or chocolate, work for a short time, because the food heats up, becomes softer and may get lumpy.
• Before slicing cabbage, cut it into hunks and remove the cabbage stalks.

MAINTENANCE

Unplug the power cable from socket before any handling with the appliance!
Do not use rough and aggressive cleaning agents! Perform any cleaning of the drive unit and the carrier only with wet rag with detergent. Wash other accessories immediately after use in hot water with detergent. Work very carefully when cleaning the knife! Note that cutting edges of the knife and grinding discs shall not come into contact with hard objects which blunt them and decrease their efficiency. After washing and drying out the components, we recommend applying cooking oil on the knife and plates. Do not use dishwasher to clean metal parts! Some agents can tinge the accessories in some way. However, this has no influence on function of the appliance and this tint usually disappears by itself after some time.Never dry plastic mouldings above heat sources (e.g. stove, electric cooker, gas cooker). Store the appliance on dry and dust–free place out of reach of children and incapable persons.
