swung in and lowered.
That the machine cannot be started with the feed
cylinder (1:C) removed and with the pusher plate
lowered.

cylinder (1:O) fitted but the feed hopper (1:N)
removed.
Remove the plug from the power supply socket
and then check that the electric cable is in good
condition and is not cracked on the outside.
If any of the safety functions does not perform as
intended or if the electric cable is cracked, get a
specialist to attend to the machine before
connecting it back to the power supply.

lubricated as necessary and runs freely. If the shaft
does not run freely, clean it carefully and lubricate
it with a few drops of machine oil.
Check that the knives and shredder plates are in
good condition and are sharp.
TROUBLE-SHOOTING
FAULT: The machine cannot be started, or stops
while it is running and cannot be restarted.
REMEDY: Check that the plug is securely fitted
into the power supply socket, or that the isolating
switch is closed. Check that the feed cylinder (1:C)
alternatively (1:O), pusher plate (1:A) or the feed
hopper (1:N) is locked in the correct position.
Move down the pusher plate into the feed
cylinder. Check that the fuses in the fuse box for
the premises have not blown and that they have
the correct rating. Wait for a few minutes and try
to restart the machine. If the machine still fails to
run, call a specialist.
FAULT: Low capacity or poor cutting results.
REMEDY: Make sure that you are using the
correct cutting tool or combination of cuttings
tools (2). Fit the drilling sleeve (1:J) alternatively the
stirring sleeve (1:M). Check that the knives and
shredder plates are in good condition and are
sharp. Press the food down loosely.
FAULT: The cutting tool (2) cannot be removed.
REMEDY: Always use the ejector plate (1:D). Use a
thick leather glove or the like that the knives of
the cutting tool cannot cut through, and turn the
cutting tool clockwise to release it.
FAULT: The drilling sleeve (1:J) alternatively the
stirring sleeve (1:M) cannot be removed.
REMEDY: Use the spanner (1:K) to unscrew the
drilling sleeve (1:J) alternatively the stirring sleeve
(1:M) clockwise.
