Gastroback 41402 Mincer Pro - Manual (Page 7)

• This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as:
– staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments;
– farm houses;
– by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;
– bed and breakfast type environments.
moving parts – risks of injuries
The mincer is suited for finely chopping food. Thus, moving parts of the appliance can cause
severe injuries, when used contrary to these instructions.
• Do not insert your hands, hair, clothes, brushes, or other foreign objects (e.g. bones,
stalks of vegetables, cooking utensils) in the feed funnel of the appliance or in the outlet of
the worm housing, when the appliance is connected to the power supply. Before connecting
the appliance to the power supply, always ensure that there are no foreign objects in the
feed funnel or worm housing, and the appliance is assembled completely and correctly.
Only use the provided feedstick to push down the ingredients. Do not push with violence, to
avoid that the mincer gets blocked.
• The edges of the crossed-blade knife are very sharp. Ensure not to get injured when hand-
ling the crossed-blade knife.
• Do not hold your face over the feed funnel, while the motor is running, because splinters
could escape from the feed funnel, if you failed to see small pieces of bones or other hard
parts (e.g. stalks, hard seeds, stones) while preparing the foods. DO nOT push the foods
with your hands down in the feed funnel, or poke in the feed funnel!
Important safeguards for electrical appliances
The appliance is operated electrically. Place the appliance near a suitable wall power
socket to connect the appliance directly to a protected mains power supply with protective
conductor (earth/ground) connected properly. Ensure that the voltage rating of your mains
power supply corresponds to the voltage requirements of the appliance (220-240 V, 50 Hz,
AC, rated for at least 16 A). The power outlet socket must be installed separately from other
power outlet sockets to avoid interference with other appliances.
The installation of a residual current operated circuit breaker (r.c.c.b.) with a maximum rated
residual operating current of 30 mA in the supplying electrical circuit is strongly recommen-
ded. If in doubt, contact your electrician for further information.
In various foreign countries, the specifications for power supplies are subject to incompatible
norms. Therefore it is possible that power supplies in foreign countries do not meet the requi-
rements for safe operation of the appliance. Thus, before operating the appliance abroad,
ensure that safe operation is possible.
• Do not use any desk top multi socket outlet, external timer, or remote control systems. It
is best to avoid using an extension cord, but if you wish to use one, only use an extension
cord rated for a maximum continuous current of at least 16 A with safety plug and safety
coupler plug and protective conductor (earth/ground) connected properly. Additionally, the
extension cord must be of sufficient length. When laying power cords, always ensure that no
one will step on the power cord or get entangled or trip over the power cords. Also, ensure
that no tension is applied to any part of the power cords. Tie the extension cord loosely onto
