Before operating, ensure the appliance is correctly assembled and plugged into a suitable power outlet.
4.1 Preparing Meat
- Trim all bones, gristle, and excessive fat from the meat.
- Cut the meat into pieces that fit easily into the feeding tube (approximately 2-3 cm cubes).
- For best results, chill the meat in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before grinding. This helps maintain its texture and prevents clogging.
