TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
This machine is composed by a base supporting a vessel containing two rotary blades secured to a spindle.
The products are minced or mashed according to the length of time the blades are allowed to rotate.
All the components of this machine are made from polished and anodized aluminium, from stainless steel
and from food-compatible plastic material.
The blades are driven by an electric motor, while movement transmission is entrusted to a longitudinally
grooved belt.
The cutter is started and stopped by means of a button connected to an auxiliary control circuit preventing
accidental startup after an outage.
MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL SAFETY DEVICES
The following mechanical safety devices have been applied:
1. protection of transparent plastic material.
The following electrical safety devices have been applied:
1. start up with start/stop button that must be pressed again to restart the machine after an outage;
2. magnetic cutout on the transparent lid preventing machine startup when the lid is open;
3. cutout switch below the vessel preventing machine from starting without positioning the vessel.
INSTALLATION AND FUNCTIONING TESTS
Place the machine on a suitably plane, smooth and dry surface sufficiently strong to support the machine
weight.
Install near an outlet complying to EU and derived from an electrical system made to current regulations.
Before completing the connections, check that the mains correspond to the data shown on the plate.
AVAILABLE CONTROLS AND MACHINE USE
1. To start the machine press the button "START" ("1" for CT3);
2. insert the food to mince through the special opening on the lid;
3. take into account that prolonged use will mash the products;
4. after completion press the button "STOP" ("0" for CT3), open the lid by turning the knob on the
horizontal bar by ¼ turn to the left, and pull up the bar;
5. take the blade holding pin away then remove the vessel from its seat.
6. The button "T" starting the machine only when it is pressed (only models CT5 and CT8).
CLEANING THE CUTTER
The cutter must be carefully cleaned at least once a day or more often as necessary.
Always wear scratch-proof protection gloves.
To clean the machine use only a cloth soaked in water and non-lathery detergent for dishes with pH at 7-8
and at least at + 30° C.
REASSEMBLING THE CUTTER
1. Insert the vessel by inserting its small pin in the relevant seat. (ref. 44);
2. insert the blade holder pin in its seat;
3. pull down the lever by turning the knob (ref. 35) by ¼ turn to the right to secure the lid to the vessel.
MAINTENANCE
For good mincing performances, the blades must be sharp. If necessary, have them sharpened by a
specialized concern.
This machine does not require any further lubrication.
Should the machine make any unusual noise after a certain period of time, this may be due to a loosening of
the belt. Screw the belt-tightener on the side of the motor under the base.
