Proper Procedure for Operating a Model PaceSetter
When the Model PaceSetter is fully assembled with all guards secured in place,
put product in the Feed Tray. Push the product through the holes in the Feed Tray Guard
into the hopper opening.
DO NOT PUT HANDS OR FINGERS, OR FOREIGN
OBJESTS, SUCH AS STOMPERS OR PLUNGERS INTO THE HOPPER.
THERE ARE NO STOMPERS OR PLUNGERS NEEDED WHEN USING THIS
UNIT, THEREFORE NONE ARE SUPPLIED.
After you allow product to drop into
hopper turn the machine on by engaging the On/Off switch down towards the on position.
The machine may need to cycle a few times to prime the machine with product. As
patties are being formed continue to push product through the holes and under the Feed
Tray Guard. Patty paper may be added to the machine as needed. The machine can hold
up to 1 inch of paper at a time.
As the Mold Plate moves back and forth to form patties, a thin coating of product
may accumulate over its surface. This coating may also accumulate on the edges of the
Knock Out Cup or on the front of the hopper and spacer plate. This accumulation does
occur on all molding machines. It is nothing to be concerned with. There are certain
machine settings that may lessen this accumulation.
Setting the Ring Pin Pressure Plate for your Patty Size
ggggggggggggggggggggggg
The Purpose of the Pressure Plate is to entrap the amount of product necessary to form your patty.
This part is also used in controlling the firmness of your patty. With the Pressure Plate set
correctly you will in turn have:
- less leakage, oozing, and coating of parts
- less kneading of your product
- and less strain on your machine.
-----------------------------------------------------------
If your patty weight is 8 ounces, keep the ring pin in the storage hole as described in the
picture. This will allow the Pressure Plate to move all the way into the hopper and stop at the
welded stud which is the maximum volume and pressure setting.
If your patty is 4 ounces remove the ring pin from the storage hole and place it in the 4
ounce hole.
If you patty weight is to be 6 ounces, place the ring pin in the 6 ounce hole.
If you would like to have a tightly packed patty, move the ring pin to a higher than
recommended setting for that particular weight.
THESE ARE ONLY RECOMMENDED SETTINGS. A VARIETY OF CIRCUMSTANCES
MAY CALL FOR YOU TO INSERT THE RING PIN IN A DIFFERENT LOCATION.
