Thermal Overload Protection; Helpful Hints - Weston Number 5 Instructions Manual

THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION

Thermal overload protection on the motor can only be used once and cannot be
reset after the unit becomes cool.
The Heavy Duty Electric Meat Grinder will automatically shut down if it overheats.
If this occurs:
1. Turn the Grinder "OFF" and unplug the Power Cord.
2. Remove the Grinder Head from the Main Body.
3. Wait until the Grinder cools or about 1 hour. Keep meat refrigerated while the
Grinder cools. Disassemble and remove meat from the Head if necessary.
4. Reassemble the Grinder and resume normal operation.
5. To prevent overheating, do not operate the Grinder for more than 15 minutes
at a time. Allow the Grinder to cool periodically.
