1. General description
KT-PK meat tenderizer is designed specifically for retail and industrial uses. It is made for
tendering boneless meat, chicken and skinless fish. Frozen products and products with bones are
not suitable to be processed with KT-PK meat tenderizer.
The product is dropped between two blade sets, which are used by an electric motor. The
rotating blades will tender the product. The machine is equipped with a safety switch, which
prevents the usage of the machine when the cover is not in place. The frame of the machine is
made of stainless steel with features of pretty appearance, well endurance and easy cleaning.
KT-PK/SK Mini-slicer blade set for the machine is available as an option. You may use it to
slice meat and fish.
Read these instructions before use and ensure that all users, technicians and cleaners have
also read these instructions. Chapter 3.1, which deal with safety must be read with
particular attention.
Keep this manual in a safe place for further and regular reference and for ordering spare parts.
