about sanitary meat handling practic-
es, contact your local Board of Health
or the USDA to research the proper
methods of meat handling.
No list of safety guidelines can be
complete. Every shop environment
is different. Always consider safety
first, as it applies to your individual
working conditions. Use this and
other machinery with caution and
respect. Failure to do so could result
in serious personal injury, damage
to equipment or poor work results.

CLEANING & LUBRICATION
2.
Prepare the sink. Wash and scrub
all sink compartments with dish soap
and hot water. Rinse these compart-
ments thoroughly.
Proper Sanitation
All surfaces and working parts that have
been exposed to meat must be properly
sanitized before and after each use.
3.
4.
Fill a sink with soapy water, sub-
merge the item and scrub the entire
surface thoroughly.
Dishwashers are a good option because
they sanitize with heat. If a dishwasher is
not available, there are chemical sanitizers
on the market that serve the same function.
When using chemical sanitizers, make sure
they are designed to do the job, and strictly
follow the manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions for proper use.
Using hot water, rinse the newly
cleaned item until all visible suds
have been removed. Repeat this pro-
cess for all of the items that need to
be sanitized. If the soapy water starts
to get hazy, drain and rinse the sink,
then fill with more soapy water.
The items are now ready to be sanitized.
Some sanitizers require direct applications,
while others are designed to be diluted
in water and used to soak the item for a
specified period of time. The best method
for choosing a chemical sanitizer is to do
the research and determine which product
is best for your particular situation.
NOTICE
Chlorine bleach can discolor alumi-
num parts. Study the ingredients of
detergentsandsanitizersbeforeclean-
ing aluminum parts. We recommend
using a chemical sanitizer specifically
designed for sanitizing aluminum.
One simple sanitizer that can be used for
many applications is regular bleach. To
use bleach as a sanitizer, wash, scrub,
and rinse your sink. For all non-porous
surfaces (except aluminum) fill the sink
with one tablespoon of bleach per gallon of
cool water. Do not use bleach that contains
odor masking agents or surfactants. These
have not been proven effective for this type
of sanitation. Submerge each item for two
minutes. For large items, submerge each
side for the specified amount of time until
you have covered the entire area. Allow
to air dry. Do not rinse these items after
sanitation!
Proper sanitation with chemical sanitizers
requires a cleaning process before the
actual sanitizer is applied.
The following is an effective method to
prepare an item for sanitation:
1.
Gather all the items that need to
be cleaned. Remove the largest
particles of meat. Rinse all items
to remove as many of the leftover
particles as possible. Set the items
aside.

Cleaning the motor housing:
Lubrication:
1. UNPLUG THE MOTOR FROM THE
POWER SOURCE!
The Model H6247 requires very little lubri-
cation. The following steps on the grinder
head parts will keep them moving freely
and keep them from oxidizing.
2. Wipe down the exterior surface of the
motor with a cloth soaked in a sanitiz-
ing solution. DO NOT submerge the
motor in water!
1. Be sure to use
a
non-vegetable
base food service lubricant on this
machine.
3. Pay particular attention to the throat
and grinder head portion of the meat
grinder. These areas are not easily
removed from the machine and will
need to be sanitized manually.
2. Place a small drop of lubricant on
the front and rear shanks of the feed
screw.
3. Apply a thin film of lubricant to the cut-
4. Flush or scrape out any large pieces
of material left in the throat or grinder
head. A 3" round brush may be useful
for this procedure.
ter dies to prevent them from rusting.
5. Jam a cloth soaked in sanitizing solu-
tion inside the grinder head and throat.
Rinse and repeat this step until these
areas are totally free of meat residue.
!
Unplug the meat grinder before
performing any cleaning or mainte-
nance.
Reduce the risk of electrocution by
keeping all connections dry. DO
NOT touch plugs with wet hands.
DO NOT Submerge in water. Failure
to follow these warning could result
in serious injury.
