4.1 Preparing Meat for Grinding

• Cut meat into pieces that fit easily into the feed tube (approximately 1-inch cubes).
• Remove any bones, large pieces of gristle, or tough tendons to prevent damage to the machine.
• For best results, chill the meat and grinder components (auger, blade, grinding plate) in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before grinding. This helps prevent smearing and ensures cleaner cuts.

4.2 Grinding Meat

1. Ensure the meat grinder is properly assembled with the desired grinding plate.
2. Place a suitable container beneath the grinding head to collect the ground meat.
3. Turn on the machine using the switch button.
4. Feed the prepared meat into the feed tube using the food pusher. Never use your fingers or any other utensil to push meat into the grinder.
5. Continue feeding meat until all is ground. Turn off the machine once grinding is complete.
