DO NOT process unsuitable products such as bone, skin, tendons, etc. that may become snagged.

BE CAREFUL not to accidentally drop foreign objects (tools, metal objects, etc.) that may jam the worm into the feed shaft.
8.2 Dismantling/assembling the cutting set and worm
Warning!
•
ALWAYS stop the machine by turning the main switch to the 0-STOP position and unplug it from the
electrical outlet before dismantling or assembling the cutting set and worm.
•
ALWAYS assemble and dismantle the cutting set and worm while the throat is mounted on the
mincer/grinder. ALWAYS follow the safety warnings provided in this instruction manual.
1. Remove the feed stomper from the tray’s feed shaft.
2. Manually loosen and remove the plate-holding nut by turning it counterclockwise; DO NOT use
hammers or other heavy tools to loosen the plate-holding nut. Be careful not to drop the plate-
holding nut so as not to injure yourself or damage the piece.
3. Use the extracting wrench shipped with the machine to pull out the cutting group approximately
two or three cm in order to remove the plates, knives and worm separately (see fig. 2). Once
dismantled, do not drop the pieces or allow them to knock against each other as this could
later prevent correct reassembly.

4. Loosen and remove the two locking knobs holding the throat
in place.
5. To remove the throat, grip it with both hands and gently pull
it outward.
6. To assemble the different cutting systems, refer to fig. 1 in
the
DRAWINGS
section at the beginning of this manual. Verify
that the worm-turning shaft coincides with that of the cabinet.

7. Repeat the above steps in reverse order to replace the throat; remember to firmly tighten the two throat locking knobs.
8. Once all the cutting elements have been assembled, we recommend turning the machine on for a just a few seconds , and then
turning it off and retightening the plate-holding nut.
9. CLEANING
The machine should be cleaned before and after each use. Since all its components are easily accessible, your TALSA mincer/grinder
is easy to clean.
For proper cleaning, proceed as follows:
After using the machine, power it off by turning the main switch to the 0-STOP
position and unplug it from the electrical outlet.
Use warm water and a mild detergent to clean the tray and its feed shaft, the
throat with its locking knobs, the worm, the plates, the knives, the compensating
ring (if present), the plate holding nut, and the feed stomper. To allow for proper
assembly of the pieces, it is also necessary to clean the shaft which holds the
knives and plates, the shaft of the worm, and the shaft of the cabinet. If
necessary, the removable throat
’s thread and the key pin with its corresponding
holding screw should be cleaned with a brush.
▪ AVOID getting water into the machine's interior; NEVER use a pressurized
stream of water to clean the machine.
▪
ALWAYS use appropriate protection (latex gloves, plastic apron, etc.) when
manually cleaning the machine.
▪ ALWAYS rinse the machine thoroughly after using any detergent or
disinfectant to prevent contamination of the meat.
Important Warnings!
•
ALWAYS disconnect the machine from the
power source before proceeding with its
cleaning.
•
Removal of the loading pan during
cleaning is STRICTLY PROHIBITED in
order to avoid accidents.
•
NEVER use bleach or any abrasive
cleaners which might damage the
stainless steel. Use of abrasive cleaners
will void the warranty!
