6.13.1 USING THE ATTACHMENT FACILITY.MEAT CHOPPER ATTACHMENT
The Meat Chopper Attachment allows you to prepare many additional foods with your Hobart mixer.
A plate having 4-mm holes comes with the Meat Chopper Attachment when shipped from the
factory. The maximum allowable hole diameter in the mincing plate is 8 mm and the plate thickness
must be greater than 5 mm. If the plate hole diameter is greater than 8 mm an interlocked protective
hood is required. The results are the same as produced by Hobart commercial meat choppers.
Operate Meat Chopper Attachments in third speed on the HL200 mixer. The feed pan should be
kept in place in the cylinder for ease of feeding. Cut meat into strips and feed it into the chopper
using the feed stomper only as needed. Substances that could become packed tight in the chopper
like breadcrumbs are not recommended. If material in the cylinder stalls the mixer, push the
STOP button at once. DO NOT attempt to restart at a slower speed. Remove the adjusting ring,
knife, plate and worm and clear the obstruction. Always keep the drain hole on both the Attachment
Hub and Meat Chopper clean, clear and free of obstruction.
The splash cover provides a means for minimising dust emissions and reducing splashing for certain
mixes at higher speeds. Splash covers fit under the Bowl Guard. Splash Covers, while convenient
accessories, should not be used to increase the mixing capacity beyond the recommended
maximum. The best functioning of Hobart mixers requires room at the top of the bowl for aeration
and manipulation. Follow the Hobart Mixer Capacity Chart of the best quality of mix. Splash Covers
on larger mixers have a smaller diameter opening at the top due to their inverted cone shape.
Overloading the mixer while a splash cover is in use reduces aeration because of restriction in the
area where air enters the batch.
6.13.3 BOWL SCRAPER ATTACHMENT.
The mixer Bowl Scraper Attachment is available for the HL200 Mixer full and half size bowls. This
attachment scrapes the sides of the bowl as the agitator rotates to re-introduce material into the
mixture. The scraper must only be used with the whip or flat beater agitators.
6.14 CLEANING.
CLEANING NEW MIXER BOWLS AND ACCESSORIES
Before using the first time, thoroughly wash new mixer bowls and agitators (beaters,
whips, dough hooks and pastry knives). Wash in hot water and a mild detergent solution,
rinsing with either a mild soda or vinegar solution, and thoroughly rinse with clear water.
Also follow this cleaning procedure for bowls and agitators before whipping egg whites or whole
eggs.
6.14.1 CLEANING AFTER USE. After use, clean the mixing bowl, agitators and attachment with hot water, using a
suitable non-abrasive detergent and soft bristle brush. (Flushing the bowl with hot
water immediately after use will ease the cleaning).
Note: Do not clean the aluminium agitators in a dishwasher.
