Kett TP-3000 - Compact Grain Polisher Pearlest Manual

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing our grain polisher. The Compact Grain Polisher Pearlest can polish a small amount of rice extracted for the purpose of testing in a short time. Since the rubber plate is used, capability of bran removal is excellent, and the grains are well finished. The polished grains can be ejected only by pushing the motor-linked lever. The Pearlest can also be used for inspecting condition and mixing degree of spotted rice influenced by pentatomid, burnt, cracked, colored, nonglutinous, or glutinous rice. Before using this instrument, thoroughly read this operating manual, and use it properly.
