INSTALLATION

Immediately after unpacking the mixer-grinder, check for possible shipping damage. If the machine is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.

Prior to installation, test the electrical service to make sure it agrees with the specifications on the machine data plate (Fig. 5).

CASTER SETS AND / OR ADJUSTABLE LEG SETS

With the mixer-grinder securely elevated using the base frame for support, bolt the caster assemblies through the corner holes using four hex-head 5/16-18bolts, lockwashers, washers, and nuts for each caster, provided.

When equippped with two Fixed and two Swivel casters, install Fixed Casters- without-Brake on rear corners of the machine and Swivel Casters-with-Brake on front corners.

BRAKE

• On machines with four identical legs or casters, install one on each corner.

All casters and leg sets use washers under the flange and above the machine base frame. Insert bolt up through the flange from the bottom with the lockwasher next to the nut on top (Fig. 2).

LEVELING

Level the mixer-grinder, both front-to-back and side-to-side, by loosening the two set screws on the caster shaft (Fig. 2) and screwing the caster up or down. Tighten both set screws when level.

LUBRICATION

The mixer-grinder is shipped with oil already installed. If oil loss is observed, the oil levels of both transmissions should be checked prior to operation. Contact Hobart Service.

PNEUMATIC FOOT SWITCH

To install the pneumatic foot switch, remove the lower front panel (6 screws). Remove the knockout from the bottom front floor panel inside the machine compartment (Fig. 3) and insert the tube from the foot switch through the knockout hole. Remove the cap from the barbed fitting at the bottom left side of the control box (Fig. 3) and connect the tube from the pneumatic foot switch onto the barbed fitting using the clamp provided. A pliers will be needed to squeeze the clamp open during installation. Avoid kinking the tube.

MG2032, MG1532 specifications

The Hobart MG1532 and MG2032 are exceptional meat grinders that cater to the diverse needs of foodservice operations, from delis to large-scale production kitchens. Boasting robust construction and thoughtful engineering, these machines exemplify durability and performance in commercial food preparation.

Starting with the MG1532, this model features a powerful 1.5-horsepower motor that delivers exceptional grinding capability. Designed for efficiency, it can process up to 32 pounds of meat per minute, making it ideal for establishments with high-volume requirements. Its 32-size grinding plate allows for the creation of a variety of meat textures, catering to different culinary applications—from coarse ground beef for burgers to fine sausage meat.

The MG2032 takes performance a step further with its 2-horsepower motor, providing even greater output and efficiency. With a capacity to grind up to 42 pounds of meat per minute, this model is suitable for larger operations that require consistent and quick meat processing. Both models are engineered with stainless steel construction, ensuring durability and ease of cleaning, which is crucial for maintaining hygiene standards in foodservice settings.

A key feature of the Hobart MG series is the innovative Feed-Forward design, which utilizes a unique screw design to help push meat more efficiently into the grinder. This technology minimizes the risk of blockages and maximizes throughput, facilitating uninterrupted processing even during peak hours. Additionally, both models are equipped with a removable hopper and a stainless steel grinding head, allowing for easy disassembly and thorough cleaning after use.

Safety is a top priority, and Hobart has integrated several features to ensure a secure operating environment. These include thermal overload protection to prevent overheating and a protective safety switch that ensures the machine cannot be operated unless assembled correctly.

The MG1532 and MG2032 also come with an array of optional attachments and accessories, including different plate sizes for varied grind textures and sausage making funnels, providing versatility to chefs and processors alike. The intuitive design and advanced technologies present in these grinders exemplify Hobart's commitment to quality, ensuring reliability and performance for years to come. Whether for small-scale production or high-volume meat processing, the Hobart MG1532 and MG2032 stand out as industry-leading choices.
