WHAT CAN BE GROUND
Vegetables, fruits, fish and meat (raw and cooked) and Pasta Maker. To use as a pasta
maker remove the 4 winged cutter blade.
IMPORTANT REMARKS:
Avoid contacting moving parts. Keep fingers out of discharge opening or hopper. Never put
a hard object in the hopper while the machine is operating. Use only the pusher (7)
provided with the meat grinder.
To ensure uniform processing, the food must be fed into the funnel in small pieces. Only
grind the meat and fat of the meat. Hard gristle will clog the grinder. If this happens, uplug
the motor, remove the grinder and clean the conveyer screw, knife and plate.
Note: Do not grind more than 10 cups of ingredients at one time. Allow mixer to cool at
least 45 minutes before using again, or damage to the mixer may result. Use KitchenAid
Stand Mixer with 325 hp or higher.
Do not dismantle or re-assemble the meat grinder while on the mixer, motor base, or hand
base.
PARTS

Fill hopper with food or meat to the hopper. Tap the food or meat through the opening with

GRINDING PEANUTS AND ALMONDS FOR NUT BUTTERS
Use peanuts without the skins. The machine will not separate the skin from the peanut
and it does not work well in making peanut butter. It is best to use roasted peanuts.
Place peanuts in a bowl of water for approximately 24 hours. After draining the nuts, lightly
oil the nuts, place the nuts with the oil into the meat/food grinder. Do not try to grind the
peanuts dry. Dry peanuts will not process the food grinder very well .
Once the peanuts have been processed, place in a blender and whip in the oil of your
taste, such as peanut oil, olive oil, etc., as needed for the consistency you desire. Adding
honey makes the peanut nut butter have more of the store bought taste. Adjust to your
taste.
ALMOND NUTS
Almond nut butter, soak the almonds in water for 24 hours, drain them and the mix them
with the oil according to your taste. The almonds in their natural state are very moist and
by the time you buy them, they have been totally dried out. The dried almonds will not
process the food grinder very well.
Once the almonds have been processed, place in a blender and whip in your choice of oil,
almond oil, olive oil, etc, as needed for the consistency you desire
