Operating Instructions
IMPORTANT: Before plugging in your unit, be sure your machine’s electrical specifications, printed on the unit’s nameplate, match
those of your local power.
Always drop meat through opening of cover. Do not attempt to stuff meat in, rolling action will carry meat through.
Use boneless cuts only, not to exceed 3/4” thick. Remove gristle before tenderizing to avoid plugging or stalling.
For a more tender product, run meat through several times at different angles. Fold thinner pieces before running
through.
