Your Model H6246 Meat-Cutting Bandsaw will cut through any fresh meat and almost all frozen meat.

To cut meat with your bandsaw:

1.Use the side fence to gauge the thickness of your desired cut. The front fence should brace the meat. Make sure the fences will not be in line with the cut.

2.Turn the bandsaw ON and slowly guide the meat into the blade by sliding the table. With frozen meat, pay close attention to the feed- rate. All cuts should be slow and smooth. If you hear the motor slow down or struggle with the cut, stop cutting.

3.Clear the slice you just cut and slide the meat toward the side fence. You can make successive cuts and the following slices will be the same thickness as the first.

This bandsaw can cut your fingers off or cause other bodily harm. Use a wooden push stick when cutting small pieces and always properly support any item you cut.

Bacteria from raw meat has been frequently linked to illness and even death! Describing proper meat handling techniques outside of cleaning the bandsaw is beyond the scope of this manual. If you are unclear about sanitary meat handling practices, contact your local Board of Health or the USDA to research the proper methods of meat handling.

The meat grinder is great for grinding hamburger and sausage. The grinder automatically engages when it is mounted to the bandsaw unit.

To use the meat grinder:

1.Make sure that all the grinder components are cleaned and sanitized thoroughly. Refer to Section 5: Sanitization on page 23.

2.Install the meat grinder as explained on page 19.

3.Lower the blade guide as low as it will go and lock it in place.

4.Prepare a place for the ground meat to exit the grinder.

5.Drop 11/2" cubes of meat into the grinder, one at a time. Always use the pusher to push the meat into the spinning auger; never use your fingers.

6.Always thoroughly clean and sanitize all parts of the grinder that have been exposed to meat or food particles. Refer to Section 5: Sanitization on page 23.

Note—DO NOT leave the meat grinder installed on the bandsaw when not in use.

The meat grinder can easily grind your fingers. Never use your fingers to push meat into the grind- er. Always use the pro- vided pusher and remove the meat grinder when not in use.
