Use and Care Manual

ASSEMBLING THE FENCE AND PUSHER
Before and after use, wash all parts with warm soapy water. Wear protective gloves,
clothing and eye protection while operating the Band Saw. Saw blade and grinder knife
are sharp! Use care when using and cleaning the product to prevent injury. Dull blades
require extra effort, which leads to blade breakage, resulting in possible injury to the
user or bystanders. Once the cut is made, turn the machine off and allow the blade to
come to a complete stop before removing the cut meat. Repeat this process until
finished with the original piece of meat. Proper blade tension is important, both for
optimum cutting and safety. There should be no
flexibility with the blade.
NOTE: For best results, chilled or slightly frozen meats make uniform cutting easier. However, do not
cut completely frozen meat as it may damage the blade.
Basic Meat Cutting Procedures
Place the meat on the stainless steel table and position it between the saw
blade in front (EE), the pusher (FF), and the fence (GG). Note: The fence
and the pusher have adjusting knobs (HH) allowing you to adjust the
placement of both, depending on the size of the piece of meat. (Figure 17)
Adjust the vertical placement of the Blade Guard so there is a maximum
1/2” space between it and the top of the meat to be cut. To adjust the
Blade Guard, loosen the knob (JJ) on the Blade Guard and raise or lower it
to expose more or less of the blade. Once in the desired position, tighten
the knob. NOTE: There is a flat side on the Guide Post (KK) that must face
the knob to work properly. (Figure 18)
Turn the Power On using the ON/OFF switch (LL). Allow the blade to reach
full speed. With one hand on the pusher and the other on the fence, push
the table forward into the rotating blade, careful to keep your hands out of
the path of the blade. (Figure 19)
Cover the machine with a cloth cover when not in use.
Before using the Meat Grinder, clean all the working parts with hot soapy water. Do not
attempt to grind bones or frozen meat that may damage the grinder. Do not use fingers,
utensils or anything other than the Push Rod to press meat into the intake.
