Congratulations
to your new hawos El Floc o.
Dear hawos customer,
We are delighted you have chosen the hawos El Floc o!
Please carefully read through these operating instructions to familiarise yourself with your
hawos. It will reward you with reliability and convenience.
El Floc o is designed for private household use. To get the greatest nutritional bene-
fits from your cereal it is advised to only use freshly fla ed grain and not to stoc up,
as nutrients get lost over time.
Initial Start-up:
Use El Floc o only with 230V power outlet.
Fill the grains into the hopper.
Place a bowl under the flour outlet and switch on the fla er.
After use, switch off the fla er.
The universal-squeezers can be used to fla e all types of grain. Please note: only hulless oat
can be fla ed without priming. All other types of grains have to soa before being fla ed.

Cleaning:
The rollers can be easily ta en out for cleaning. To do
so, push the cover downwards and then pull the
squeezers straight towards you.
Beware the position of the hexagonal shaft that drives
the rollers when reinserting the squeezers.
Hint:
If the hexagonal shaft does not fit when reinserting,
insert the squeezers onto the guiding pin, switch on
the El Floc o and gently push the squeezers inwards
so that it snaps bac into place. Then push the cover
upwards bac into position.
Fault:
The integrated motor protection switches off the
motor in case of overheating. If this happens, pull the
mains plug and let the device cool down for a couple
of minutes. When power is restored, the device will be
operational again.
This Reset-function only wor s when you pull the
mains plug and no electricity flows to the device!
Setting the thickness of the flakes:
To change the pressure of the rollers, first ta e off the
cover at the front of the El Floc o and ta e out the
squeezers. The two Allen screws on the side of the
squeezers set the pressure. For finer fla es, turn the
screws cloc wise, or turn them anti-cloc wise (looser)
for coarser fla es. The rollers should still be movable
by hand!
Hint:
1. For fresh Müslifla es in the morning, soa the grain
for approximately 30 minutes in water the night
before and then spread them out on a itchen towel
over night so that they can further upwell.
2. To identify whether the grain has the right
moistness do the spoon-test: Place one grain on a
hard surface and squeeze it flat with the spoon. If the
grain crumbles apart, then the grain is to dry!
The hawos-Team wishes you all the best with your
hawos El Floc o!
