Installation
Operation
1. Loosen the black grinder head locking knob until the threads are not exposed inside the motor housing
opening and insert the grinder head into the motor housing with the feed chute facing straight up. Turn
clockwise until the slot on the top of the grinder head aligns with the pin inside the motor housing. Be sure
the head is seated fully into the motor housing (Figure 1). Tighten the grinder head locking knob to lock the
grinder head into place (Figure 2).
2. Insert the auger by aligning the auger spline with the drive shaft of the grinder. Slightly turn the auger
clockwise until seats into gear housing (Figure 3).
3.
Place the cutting knife onto the square portion of the auger pin (Figure 4). Note that the cutting knife is a
ONE-WAY-FIT design that ensures that the flat side of the blade edges will face outward.
4. Place the grinder plate onto the auger pin and align the slotted notch in the grinder plate with the bottom
notch in the grinder head opening.
NOTE: The cutting plate will only fit one way and will protrude approx. 1/8” out of the grinder head).
NOTE: IT IS RECOMMENDED TO ALWAYS USE THE COARSE (10mm) PLATE FOR THE FIRST
GRIND. (Figure 5).
5. Attach front head ring nut and turn the front ring nut clockwise until it is snug against the grinder plate
(Figure 6).
6.
Place the neck of the meat tray into the grinder feed chute opening and press down until secure (Figure 7).
IMPORTANT: While one person can stuff sausage with this grinder, it is recommended that two people
perform this operation. One person to operate the grinder and push meat into the chute with the
stomper while the other person manages the output into the sausage casing.
TO BEGIN STUFFING:
1.
Place seasoned ground meat into the meat tray. Do not overfill the tray, place just enough meat to leave
the feed chute area open (Figure 8).
2.
Slide a sausage casing over the stuffing funnel (Figure 9).
3.
Pull 4-6” (10-15cm) of casing out at of the end of the stuffing funnel tube and tie a knot in the end of the
casing (Figure 10).
4. Make sure the grinder is in the “OFF” position. Attach the grinder to the power supply.
5. Press grinder “ON” button or turn grinder switch the to the forward “FWD” position. Carefully start feeding
ground meat into the feed chute. ONLY USE THE STOMPER TO PUSH MEAT INTO THE HEAD, DO NOT
USE YOUR FINGERS OR ANY OTHER OBJECT.
6. Hold the casing in place with one hand while feeding the sausage mixture through the grinder. As the meat
fills the casing, gently lay it on a clean, dry surface (Figure 11).
7.
Do not fill the last 4-6” (10-15.24cm) of casing. After the entire length of casing has been stuffed, twist the
open end to close, then tie off the ends of the casing tightly to close. Twist into links if desired.
8.
Whenever stuffing sausage, fill the casing slowly to avoid air pockets. If air pockets do appear in the
sausage use a pin to prick the bubbles. The small holes will seal naturally.
WARNING! NEVER RUN GRINDER DRY WITHOUT MEAT! It can cause damage to the unit, meat
becomes a lubricant when passing through the grinder, if you run out of meat, turn the grinder off
