To Use Food Grinder Attachment
1. Cut food into small strips or pieces and
feed them into hopper. Meat should be
cut into long narrow strips.
2. Turn mixer to Speed 4 and feed food
into hopper using combination food
pusher/wrench.
NOTE: Liquid may appear in hopper when
processing large amounts of high moisture
foods such as tomatoes or grapes. To
drain liquid, continue to operate mixer.
To avoid damage to mixer, do not process

Coarse Plate – Use for
grinding raw or cooked meats,
firm vegetables, dried fruits
and cheese.
Fine Plate – Use for grinding
raw meat, cooked meats for
spreads and breadcrumbs.
Grinding Meat – For better mix and
more tender results, grind beef twice. Best
texture results from grinding very cold or
partially frozen meat. Fatty meats should
be ground only once.

crumbs, be sure that bread is either oven
dried thoroughly to remove all moisture,
or not dried at all. Partially dried bread
may jam the Food Grinder.
NOTE: Very hard, dense foods such as
totally dried homemade bread should
not be ground in the Food Grinder.
Homemade bread should be ground fresh
and then oven or air-dried.
To Loosen Ring – If ring is too tight to
remove by hand, slip the combination
food pusher/wrench over the grooves and
turn counterclockwise.
NOTE: To avoid damage to the food
grinder attachment, do not use
combination food pusher/wrench to
tighten ring to grinder body.
