of this manual. If you are unclear  
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.
