Operation

Before Use:

1. Check that the mains voltage corresponds to the rated voltage on the type plate.
2. Wash all parts that come into contact with food in hot water and detergent. Do not immerse the motor unit in water; wipe it with a damp cloth.
3. Ensure the power switch is in the OFF position before plugging in the power cord.

Assembly:

1. Press the feeder housing into the opening in the motor unit casing. Insert the locking screw into the hole on the side of the motor unit and turn clockwise to fix the feeder housing in place.
2. Insert the feeder screw into the feeder housing with the long end first. Turn the screw to engage.
3. Place the blade on the feeder screw shaft with the cutting edge outwards. Incorrect fitting will result in improper mincing.
4. Place the desired mincing plate next to the blade, aligning the raised parts with the slots.
5. Screw on and tighten the lock ring. Do not overtighten.
6. Place the feeder tray on top of the feeder housing.
7. Place the appliance on a level, stable surface. Ensure ventilation holes underneath the motor unit are not blocked.

7. Dismantle the mincing plate and blade by following the instructions in reverse order.

If Food Gets Stuck:

1. Immediately switch off and unplug the appliance if the overheating protection switches off the motor, or if the motor is running but bones or other obstructions prevent meat from exiting through the mincing plate.
2. Turn the switch to the REVERSE position to drive the feeder screw backward to release the obstruction. The feeder screw rotates backward as long as the switch is held in REVERSE.
3. Switch off the appliance, unplug the power cord, and wait until all moving parts have completely stopped.
4. Dismantle and clean the appliance according to the instructions.
