IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

  1. Read all instructions.
  2. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they are closely supervised and instructed concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
  3. Turn the Stand Mixer OFF (and detach the Metal Food Grinder attachment from the Stand Mixer) after each use of the attachment and before cleaning. Make sure motor stops completely before disassembling.
  4. Avoid contacting moving parts. Keep fingers out of discharge opening.
  5. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by KitchenAid may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
  6. Never feed food by hand. Always use the food pusher.
  7. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
  8. Do not use fingers to scrape food away from discharge disc while appliance is operating. Cut-type injury may result.
  9. Also see the Important Safeguards section included in the Stand Mixer Use and Care guide.

ASSEMBLING

Wash all parts with warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly before use.

  1. Insert the grind screw into the main housing. Then, place the blade over the end of the grind screw. The blade should fit entirely inside the housing. If it doesn’t, pull it off, turn it over, and place it again.
  2. Place grinding plate over the blade, matching the notch of the plate with the tab on the bottom of the main housing.
  3. Place the collar on the main housing, turning clockwise by hand until secured but not tightened.

ATTACHING THE METAL FOOD GRINDER ATTACHMENT TO THE STAND MIXER

  1. Turn the Stand Mixer off and unplug.
  2. For Stand Mixers with a hinged attachment hub cover: Flip up to open.For Stand Mixers with a removable attachment hub cover: Turn the attachment knob counterclockwise to remove attachment hub cover.
  3. Insert the attachment shaft housing into the attachment hub, making certain the power shaft fits into the square hub socket. If necessary, rotate the attachment back and forth. The pin on the attachment housing will fit into the notch of the hub rim when in the proper position.
  4. Tighten the Stand Mixer attachment hub knob clockwise until the attachment is completely secured to the Stand Mixer.

GRINDING WITH THE METAL FOOD GRINDER ATTACHMENT

  1. Cut food into small strips or pieces sized to fit into the feed tube.
  2. Turn the Stand Mixer to Speed 4 and feed food into the feed tube using the food pusher.

WARNING

  • Always use food pusher.
  • Keep fingers out of openings.
  • Keep away from children.
  • Failure to do so can result in amputation or cuts.

ASSEMBLING THE SAUSAGE STUFFER

  1. Insert the grind screw into the main housing. Then insert the sausage stuffer plate over the end of the grind screw, matching the notch of the plate with the tab on the bottom of the main housing.
  2. Insert the desired sausage stuffer tube (large or small) through the collar. Then, place the collar and tube assembly on the main housing, turning the ring by hand until secured but not tightened.
USING THE SAUSAGE STUFFER
  1. Feed meat into the Metal Food Grinder attachment before adding the sausage stuffer tube. This will eliminate air pockets.
  2. Lubricate the sausage stuffer tube and slide one casing over the tube, leaving about four inches to tie off the end.
  3. Turn the Stand Mixer on to Speed 4 and slowly push the meat through the grinder. Hold the casing firmly as it fills. If air bubbles are created during the fill process, use a pin or needle to pop the bubble.
  4. Run meat through until 4-6 inches of casing is left unfilled. Turn off the Stand Mixer and tie the remaining end of the casing, or use a tie string.

NOTE: For segmented-type sausage (e.g., bratwurst), twist casing ends in alternating directions at desired sausage link length.

TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

HELPFUL HINTS

For best results, grind meat that is very cold or partially frozen. The grinder parts can be pre-chilled in the refrigerator or freezer before use to maintain a cold grinding temperature.For more tender results, some meats can be ground twice. However, fatty meats should be ground only once.To grind bread for crumbs, be sure that bread is either oven-dried thoroughly to remove all moisture, or not dried at all. Partially dried bread may jam the Metal Food Grinder attachment.

NOTE: Very hard, dense foods such as completely dried homemade bread should not be ground in the Metal Food Grinder attachment. Homemade bread should be ground fresh and then oven- or air-dried.If using natural casings, it is recommended to first soak them in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess salt, then rinse several times by running cold water through the entire length of the casing. For best results for sausage, refer also to the instructions that came with the casings.

CARE AND CLEANING

  1. Use the cleaning brush to clean the main housing and other accessories, including the grinding plates.
  2. The following parts are dishwasher-safe, top rack only: sausage stuffer plate, sausage stuffer tubes, cleaning brush, and food pusher.
  3. The following parts should be hand-washed only, using warm, soapy water and drying thoroughly: main housing, grind screw, collar, tray, grinding plates, and blade.
