1. Safety instructions!
Prior to commissioning, the Operating Manual
and safety instructions must be carefully read
and complied with! Pass on all safety instruc-
tions to other users, as well!
• Any person assigned by the operating company
to a function involving the assembly, disassembly,
commissioning, operation or maintenance (inspection,
maintenance, repair) of KOLBE butcher shop machinery
must have read completely and thoroughly understood
the respective Operating Manual and, especially, the
safety instructions. It is recommended that the operating
company establish an appropriate written verification
requirement.
• KOLBE butcher shop machines have been manufactured
and are operationally safe according to the latest standards
of technology. However, hazards can be associated with
the machines if they are operated by untrained persons
in an improper manner or in applications, for which they
were not intended.
• The KOLBE butcher shop machines (meat mincers,
bandsaws, portioning units, conveyors, lift/tilt equipment)
have been manufactured exclusively for the processing of
meat and fish products. Any other usage is deemed to be
utilisation not in accordance with the intended purpose.
The manufacturer is not liable for damages resulting from
such utilisation! The user bears sole responsibility for this
risk.
• Utilisation according to the intended purpose also
includes compliance with the manufacturer‘s prescribed
operating, service and maintenance requirements.
• The KOLBE butcher shop machines (meat mincers,
bandsaws, portioning units, conveyors, lift/tilt equipment)
must be operated, serviced or maintained only by
authorised persons who have been properly trained and
appropriately briefed. These persons must have received
special instruction on the potential hazards involved.
• From a safety perspective, the responsibilities for assembly,
disassembly, service, commissioning, maintenance and
operation must be clearly stipulated in order to avoid
confusion with regard to competencies.
• Prior to beginning work, the operator should be familiar
with all machine equipment and actuating controls, as
well as with their function! During work, time is no longer
available for this and it is too late!
• The shutdown procedures prescribed in the Operating
Manual must be observed during all work associated
with assembly, disassembly, service, commissioning,
maintenance and operation.
• All forms of work that could potentially impair the safety
of the machine are prohibited.
• The operator must at all times ensure that unauthorised
persons are restricted from working on the machine.
• The operator is responsible to ensure that any unforeseen
changes, which could potentially impair the safety of the
machine, are reported immediately to the supervisor.
• The user is responsible at all times to ensure that the
machine is operated only in a fault-free condition.
• Through appropriate instructions and controls, the user
must ensure the cleanliness and clear layout of the
workplace on and around the machine.
• Arbitrary modifications to, or conversions of the machine
are not permitted and exclude any manufacturer liability
for damages resulting from such actions.
• Do not reach into the inlet / outlet areas or into operating
tooling (e.g. bandsaw blade, mincer feed screw, cross
knife, lifting blade, etc.).
• Do not undertake any setting changes to the machine
while it is running, but always wait until the machine has
come to a standstill.
• Do not remove any electrical or mechanical safety
equipment.
• Prior to performing troubleshooting, maintenance or
repair activities, disconnect the electrical supply. This work
must be carried out only by an authorised specialist (post
warning signs on or around the machine as necessary).
• Prior to re-commissioning following machine maintenance
or repair, check to ensure that all safety equipment has
been re-installed.
• The generally valid occupational safety and accident
prevention regulations, as well as other generally accepted
safety-related rules, must be complied with.
2. List of hazards (residual dangers)
Be particularly aware of the following danger
areas on the machine!
2.1 Mechanical hazards
• Risk of injury on the cutting edges of the cross knife.
Do not reach into the outlet to access the rotating cross
knife behind the perforated disc (e.g. cuts and abrasions
on hands or fingers, or shearing-o of a finger). When
removing the knife, cut-resistant gloves must be worn.
• The risk exists of crushing or shearing-o of a finger, hand
or lower arm at the intake area of the working screw.
• The risk exists of cutting-o, shearing-o, cutting,
catching, tangling, being drawn in or trapped by the
rotating working screw, feed screw, mixing arm, loosening
shaft or rotating knife behind the perforated disc.

• The risk exists of crushing, shearing-o and jamming
of fingers, hands, feet or other body parts when .... or
between .... :
-Assembling or disassembling cutting set parts
-Assembling or disassembling the locking nut, mincer feed
screw, mincer housing, splatter guard, housing outlet
protective cover, feeder screw, mixing arm, loosening
shaft, as well as all removable parts
-Working with the combination hook wrench
-Closing the hopper cover or hopper attachment
-The batching trolley and the lift/tilt pylon
-The batching trolley and a wall or other objects
-Releasing the locking devices on mobile models
-Plugging or unplugging CEE plug connections
-Disassembled parts falling or toppling
-All moveable and stationary parts
• The risk of jamming or crushing exists due to machine
toppling, in particular on the mobile models.
• The risk of crushing exists between the mobile machine
and walls or other objects, as well as between the floor
and the castors.
• The risk of being drawn in, crushing or shearing-o of
fingers or hands exists during maintenance and inspection
work at the machine drive component intake areas with
opened inspection covers.
2.2 Hazard due to instability
• The risk exists to bodily parts due to impact or crushing,
in particular when the machine is mobile or topples.
Always bear in mind the need for a secure foundation
and stable flooring when installing the machine!
2.3 Electrical hazards
• The risk of injury exists due to direct or indirect contact
with electricity.
• The risk of injury exists due to defective electrical
components or malfunction.
2.4 Noise hazards
Risk of hearing loss due to noise emissions greater than 80
dB(A). With the meat mincers MWK32-45 / MWK114-45,
MWK32-80 / MWK114-80, MW32-80 / MW114-80 the noise
level at idle / sound pressure level has been determined
according to EN ISO 3746:2011 (constant K=4 dB) to be 70
dB(A), and this results in a sound power level of 80 dB(A).
The values set forth are emission values and do not
necessarily represent safe values for the workplace. Although
there is a correlation between emission and immission
levels, a reliable conclusion as to whether additional safety
precautions are necessary according to EN ISO 11690-
1/-2 cannot be drawn. Factors present at the workplace,
which would influence immission levels, could relate to the
peculiarities of the workshop, itself, and other noise sources,
such as the number of machines and neighbouring work
processes, as well as non-standard operating conditions.
The allowable levels at the workplace can vary from country
to country. Nonetheless, this information should help the
user to better estimate the hazards and risks involved.
With a noise level of > 80 dB(A), the operator must take
appropriate precautions for hearing protection, such as
mandating the use of earplugs or other hearing protection
devices.
2.5 Hazards to health
The risk of harm to human health exists due to low ambient
temperatures. Thermal protective clothing should be worn
at ambient temperatures < 7 °C.
2.6 Hazards due to neglect of
hygienic principles and cleaning instructions:
• The risk of harm to human health and unacceptable
change in the foodstus being processed, such as:
-Spoilage of foodstus (food poisoning!)
-Internal chemical burns suered by the consumer due to
cleaning and disinfectant agent residue in the foodstus
-Internal injuries to the consumer due to a foreign object
-(e.g. machine parts or parts from other origins)
2.7 Predictable operator error
• Non-compliance with installation instructions
• Non-adherence to operator instructions
• Non-observance of danger notices
• Non-compliance with shutdown procedures
• Non-observance of operating instructions
• Non-observance of cleaning instructions
• Non-compliance with maintenance intervals
• Non-adherence to utilisation according to intended
purpose

In the event of transport damage, contact the transport
company immediately for claims assessment.
5. Installation of the machine
5.1 Installation instructions
Remove the shrink-wrapped foil and dismantle the machine
from the shipping pallet by removing the four bolts. Carefully
lift the machine with a forklift or crane apparatus and
remove the wood pallet. Bolt the four adjustable machine
feet (69) supplied to the threaded holes in the machine
legs or, depending on the mobile machine model, mount
the two rear fixed castors (8) and the two forward steering
castors (9). The adjustable machine feet are set accordingly
by means of the screw threads to compensate for uneven
floor surfaces.
The installation site must be selected based on load bearing
capacity of the foundation or floor covering with respect to
the weight of the machine.
Kolbe meat processing machinery are to a certain extent
dangerous machines, and may therefore only be installed

7
and operated in areas not accessible to the general public.
Moreover, these machines are intended only for artisanal
and industrial use.
Kolbe meat processing machinery are not suitable for use in
potentially explosive environments.
For hygienic reasons, the machine should be installed in
a cooled or air conditioned room. Besides the floor space
required for the machine, additional space must be provided
for user needs equating to at least 1 m x 1.5 m dependent
on operator orientation (front or side).
The machine must be operated only in a room with a
minimum illumination of 500 Lux.
All components for assembly or disassembly weigh less than
20 kg so that height-compensating transport equipment is
not necessary.
5.2 Connection of the machine
Compare motor voltage (see rating plate) with the supply
voltage. Connection must be made by an authorised
electrician. (Observe local regulations!)
According to EN 60204, the machine is either to be
connected to a plug connection or a mains switch is to be
installed in the fixed supply line.

When installing the electrical connection, check
the direction of mincer feed screw rotation.
When facing the mincer, the mincer feed screw
should rotate in a counter-clockwise direction.
6. Commissioning
Prior to commissioning the machine, thoroughly
read the Operating Manual. Please also refer to
the pictures on pages 15 to 25.
6.1 General
KOLBE mixer mincers with Enterprise or Unger cutting
systems are designed for the production of minced meat
products and sausages. The solid and functional machine
construction also allows for the processing of coarsely
ground output product, although the hopper thereby should
be filled only to a maximum of two-thirds its holding capacity.
The separately switchable mixer unit serves the raw product
blending of dierent meat types, as well as the mixing of
herbs and spices prior to mincing. The mixing blade, the
mincer feed screw and the mincer housing are designed in
such a manner that the meat is fed quickly and gently to the
cutting set, where it minced to the desired granulation.
The standard mobile models are particularly suited to
applications in cold storage rooms.
KOLBE mixer mincers fulfil the highest requirements for
hygiene, cleanliness, operating safety and practice-oriented
detailed solutions, while also meeting demands for user-
friendliness.
6.2 Authorised intended use
KOLBE mixer mincers are to be deployed only in food pro-
cessing facilities for the production of fresh or slightly frozen
minced meat products. Any other application, incorrect han-
dling, overloading or deficient servicing and maintenance is
considered to be improper usage and represents a hazard to
persons and property.
The KOLBE machine (grinders, bandsaws, portioning
solutions, etc) operator must be trained in the butcher‘s
craft (butcher, butcher salesperson etc.), fish processing,
food processing industry or a training of comparable
quality which teaches the proper and safe operation of
the machinery. Work on the KOLBE machines is in some
cases hazardous and can therefore be linked to the risk of
accidents.
To protect young trainees aged between 15 and 18 and
enable them to achieve their training objective, work on
these machines is only allowed under the supervision of a
qualified trainer, ensuring that operating instructions and
warnings about all machine hazards have been given.
Trainees of over 18 years of age may only work on these
machines after having received specialized instructions and
warnings about all hazards (see operating instructions).
Trainees under 15 years are not allowed to work on such
machines.
Basically, people are not permitted to work on such a machine
if it exceeds their physical or psychological capacity!
6.3 Product feed for mincing
The pre-partitioned product must be filled into the meat
mincer hopper, whereby it must be ensured that the hopper
is filled only to a maximum of two-thirds its holding capacity.
Subsequently close the protective cover (5) and switch the
mixing process ON according to (6.4). During mincing, the
mixing blade (37) supplies the mincer feed screw (16, 22,
31 or 33), which conveys the meat quickly and gently to the
cutting set.
!
!

8
With the Unger cutting system, the meat is cut to the desired
granulation after a one-time cutting passage. With the
Enterprise cutting system, a homogeneous and appetizing
minced meat texture is realised after two cutting passages.
6.4 Switching the machine ON
The On/O button of the machine is mounted on the left top
of the machine frame, and a main switch (4) for operation is
mounted on the right side or rear of the machine. To initiate
mixing, the green ON button (1) must be actuated, whereby
the mixing blade (37) begins blending the raw product while
turning in a clockwise direction.
For subsequent mincing, first actuate the red OFF button (3),
then the green ON button (2). During mincing, the mixing
blade (37) turns in the opposite direction and the mincer
feed screw (16, 22, 31 or 33) conveys the product being
minced.
Mixing = depress green push-button (1)
OFF = depress red mushroom-head button (3)
Mincing = depress green push-button (2)
Operate the meat mincer at all times only in its
filled condition, as otherwise the cutting set
could be damaged due to running dry. Check the
direction of mincer feed screw rotation!
6.5 Mixing interval circuit (optional)
Depending on the controller model, the mixing blade (37)
can be set optionally to rotate to the right and to the left
as it blends the raw product at cyclical intervals during the
mixing process. At the same time, the working screw (16,
22, 31 or 33) momentarily rotates in a reverse direction at
cyclical intervals. Start the mincing process with the green
ON button (2) and stop it with the red mushroom-head
button (3).
Mixing = depress green push-button (1)
OFF = depress red mushroom-head button (3)
Mincing = depress green push-button (2)
6.6 Drive speed control
(Optional for MWK32/114 - 80 / MW32/114 - 80)
Depending on the model of the controller, it is possible to
infinitely variably control the speed of both drives (mincer
feed screw and mixing blade) by means of a rotary
potentiometer (11 or 12) via a frequency converter controller.
For this, the frequency converter controller is actuated
to the operationally ready status via the ON button (13)
while the mixing and mincing processes are started as
described in point 6.4. Drive speeds are infinitely variably
controlled, independent of each other, via the individual
rotary potentiometers (11 or 12). The mere Stop-function is
actuated via the red mushroom-head STOP button (3), while
the frequency converter controller, meaning the system, is
switched o via the OFF button (14).
(FC = frequency converter)
Mincer feed screw = rotary potentiometer (12)
Mixing blade = rotary potentiometer (11)
System on (ON) = green illuminated button (13)
System o (OFF) = red push-button (14)
6.7 Mixing time control
(Optional for MWK32/114 - 80 / MW32/114 - 80)
The length of the mixing time can be infinitely variably set
via the optional potentiometer (43) from approx. 2 to 30
minutes, meaning that, after expiration of the set time, the
mixing process will switch o automatically.
Possible options are dependent on the machine model and
type of controller
6.8 Protective cover
The machine’s upper hopper protective cover (5) is coupled
with a magnetic sensor in accordance with CE safety
regulations so that the meat mincer can be switched ON
only when the cover (5) is closed and, accordingly, will
switch OFF automatically as soon as the cover (5) is opened.
6.9 Disassembly of the working screw
-Switch the machine OFF, wait for standstill and disconnect
the primary electrical power (mains switch)
-Loosen and remove the locking nut (6) using the
combination hook wrench (34 or 38)

-Pull the mixing blade (37) out of the rear attachment and
remove it by tilting it slightly upwards.
-Installation takes place in the reverse sequence
Ensure the proper assembly and secure
attachment of the mixing blade bracket (36) at
all times!
6.12 Insertion of the coded cutting set variants
Only outlet-sided perforated discs with a max.
bore hole diameter of 8.0 mm are to be used with
the coded cutting system. For safety reasons,
regrinding of the discs is permissible only to a disc
thickness of 8 mm!
Fault-free operation of the meat mincer is warranted only
when the cutting tools are properly inserted.
(See the pictures on pages 16+17)
Enterprise cutting system, size E 32 - coded
-Perforated disc with 4 slots and hub (18)
-Cross knife (19)
The locking nut (6) must be tightened firmly using the
combination hook wrench (34) / (38) so the cross knife (19)
lies securely on the perforated disc (18). Only then can a
clean-cut of the minced meat be warranted.

(27) will lie on the perforated discs (24, 25, 26) and cut
without causing excessive abrasion.
The combination hook wrench (34) / (38) must be used
only for opening the Unger locking nut.
6.13 Insertion of the uncoded cutting set variants
Use of the uncoded cutting system is permitted
only in conjunction with the use of a housing
outlet protective cover (10), meaning that outlet-
sided perforated discs with a max. bore hole diameter
of greater than 8.0 mm may also be used. For safety
reasons, regrinding of the discs is permissible only to a
disc thickness of 8 mm!
Fault-free operation of the meat mincer is warranted only
when the cutting tools are properly inserted.
(See the pictures on pages 16+17)
Enterprise cutting system, size E 32
-Perforated disc with 3 slots and hub (18)
-Cross knife (19)
The locking nut (6) must be tightened firmly using the
combination hook wrench (34) / (38) so the cross knife (19)
lies securely on the perforated disc (18). Only then can a
clean-cut of the minced meat be warranted.
Unger cutting system, size D 114
-Pre-cutter (24)
-Cross knife (27)
-Perforated disc, coarse (25)
-Cross knife (27)
-Perforated disc, fine (26)
-Insert ring (28 or 29)
Tighten the locking nut (6) by hand only so the cross knife
(27) will lie on the perforated discs (24, 25, 26) and cut
without causing excessive abrasion.
The combination hook wrench (34) / (38) must be used
only for opening the Unger locking nut.
Please note that the perforated discs and cross
knives are parts subject to wear. They will require
regrinding at time intervals determined by and
adapted to the operating conditions. Only sharp tools
provide a good cut while conserving the knife studs (17
or 23), as well as the overall machine.
6.14 Housing outlet protective cover (optional)
To comply with applicable safety regulations, the use of a
housing outlet protective cover (10) is absolutely essential
when using outlet-sided perforated discs with bore hole
diameters greater than 8.0 mm. It covers the outlet-sided
perforated disc and thereby prevents direct access to the
perforated disc by fingers or hands. A magnetic sensing
safety device on housing outlet protective cover (10)
switches the meat mincer automatically OFF as soon as it is
opened and prevents it from being switched ON unless the
protective outlet cover is closed.
When opened, the housing outlet protective cover can be
removed for cleaning purposes towards the front.
As safety regulations evolve, it is possible that the use
of housing outlet protective covers overall will become
compulsory at some point.
6.15 Motor protection
The machine contactor control is outfitted with overcurrent
relays. In the event of an overload resulting in an inadmissible
increase in current consumption in the motor windings, the
machine will automatically shutdown.
This is the case, for example, with phase failure, insucient
cooling or machine blockage.
If the automatic overcurrent relays have triggered, they will
reactivate automatically after a cooling-down period.
The machine can then be switched back ON.
If the cause of the overload has not been rectified, however,
the overcurrent relays will trigger once again after a short
period of time.
In the event of frequency converter control of the machine,
!
!
!
!

10
an overload can result in a malfunction shutdown. In this
case, the machine must be reset by switching the supply
voltage OFF for 5 minutes via the mains switch.
6.16 Mobile and stationary machine models
When outfitting a stationary machine with four adjustable
feet, it must be ensured that a suitable lifting device (e.g.
lift truck, forklift, crane, etc.) and transport security are
available.
The mains plug on the mobile version, which includes two
steering castors (9) with locking devices and two fixed castors
(8), must always be removed prior to moving the machine.
The supply cable, incl. CEE plug, must be protected from
damage during movement. Once moved, always set the
locking devices on the steering or fixed castors by pressing
them downwards.
6.17 Hopper cooling
(Optional for MWK32/114 - 80 / MW32/114 - 80)
As an option, the KOLBE mixer mincer can be supplied with
hopper cooling, incl. protective cover with shock-resistant
viewing glass.
The temperature in the filling hopper is regulated between
2 - 4 ˚C by means of a thermostat.
7. Cleaning the machine
Prior to performing any cleaning tasks, discon-
nect the primary electrical power (remove the
mains plug; position the mains switch to OFF).
First wait for the mincer feed screw and mixing blade to
come to a standstill before carrying out any work on the
machine. Wear protective goggles. When performing
cleaning tasks in the vicinity of the cross knife, cut-
resistant gloves should be worn.
7.1 Cleaning according to a Cleaning plan
The machine’s non-rusting design simplifies service and
maintenance of the meat mincer. For functional and hygienic
reasons, the meat mincer should be cleaned on a daily basis
according to a Cleaning plan (see page 11).
Shorter cleaning intervals may need to be adapted to the
type of application and hygiene regulations. Only those
cleaning agents approved for use with food processing may
be used.
7.2 Access openings for cleaning
Meat juices resulting from the mincing process can flow out
via two laterally positioned openings (7) for protection of the
main gearing or the mixing blade gearing in the event of
subsiding shaft sealing. These openings should be cleaned
out with a water hose during daily cleaning activities.
7.3 Cleaning instructions
-Switch the machine OFF, wait for standstill and disconnect
the primary electrical power
-Remove and clean the locking nut (6)
-Remove the cutting set and mincer feed screw (16, 22, 31
or 33) for cleaning
-Remove and clean the mincer housing (15, 21, 30 or 32)
-Remove and clean the mixing blade bracket (36) and
mixer blade (37)
-Thoroughly clean the protective cover (5) and hopper
-Rinse the cleaning access openings (7) with a water hose
-Clean and subsequently lightly lubricate the insertion
zones on the mincer housing (15, 21, 30 or 32) and
machine stand
-Observe the detailed cleaning instructions on page 10.
All KOLBE machines are suited to cleaning with hose
and jet water spraying. However, it must be ensured that
any electrical components and shaft sealing rings on the
rear of the mincer housing, as well as the working screw
attachment openings on the mincer stand, are exposed
only momentarily to the hose water spray.

10. Maintenance and inspection
Prior to performing any maintenance or
inspection tasks, disconnect the primary
electrical power. Remove the mains plug;
position the mains switch to OFF.
First wait for the mincer feed screw and mixing blade to
come to a standstill before carrying out any work on the
machine. Wear protective goggles. When performing
work in the vicinity of the cross knife, cut-resistant
gloves should be worn.
-Ensure compliance with the safety instructions when
performing maintenance or inspection tasks.
-Along with many other factors, the operational safety and
service life of the machine are dependent upon proper
execution of the maintenance function.
-Operating malfunctions resulting from insucient or
improper maintenance can lead to high repair costs and
lengthy periods of machine downtime. For this reason,
regular maintenance is indispensable.
-The following table contains time, inspection and
maintenance related information and instructions for
normal machine deployments.
-Due to the widely varying operating conditions, however,
a definite schedule for wearing part checks, servicing
or maintenance cannot be established in advance. A
practical inspection schedule should be established based
on the specific on-site operating conditions.
