1. Disconnect the mill from the electrical circuit.
2.
Open the locking screws in the funnel and lift the funnel off.
3.
Open the 4 locking screws of the milling chamber and lift off the funnel cone.
4.
Now you can clean the milling-stones (either using a knife or steel brush) or the milling
chamber (with a vacuum cleaner).
CARE OF THE WOODEN PARTS
All wooden parts of the grain mill have been treated with biological beeswax. They are therefore free
from varnish and synthetic materials!
To clean exterior surfaces from dust and dirt please only use a damp cloth. To polish the wooden
parts of the mill, please use beeswax balsam or something similar.
The rough surfaces inside can be cleaned with fine sandpaper.
Reworking of the Mill-Stones:
Thanks to their structure, the processed, extremely hard corundum-ceramic milling-stones are self-
sharpening and thus always maintain their grip. Should - after many years of use – the mill-stones
become subject to so much wear that the feed grooves no longer transport sufficient grain, the
milling capacity will be correspondingly reduced. The milling-stones should then either be reworked
or exchanged.
Analysis of Small Defects
During the milling process the flour should always run freely from the flour spout. If that is
not the case, then the grain is too moist for the degree of fineness set. The result is that the
milling-stones have become smeared.
The motor is blocked
- the mill won’t start:
Possible Cause:
Possible Solution:
Mill-stones smeared
Dry the grain, clean mill-stones
The mill was either turned from coarse to
fine while not yet in operation or was reset
too quickly while whole grain kernels were
still between the stones:
Turn the mill off – reset to coarse and slowly
turn to a finer setting during the
milling process. Eventually slowly add corn
Hard grain in the funnel
Corn, rice, durum wheat etc. or slowly add
very small corn kernels by hand through the
funnel
