8. If machine runs clockwise (backwards), it must be rewired to correct rotation, otherwise serious irreparable
damage may occur to grinding components.
9. Check that the grinding bowl is properly seated and that the bowl lock assembly is tight. Insert worm assembly
into grinding bowl, place knife (sharp edges out) onto the square end of the worm assembly. The breaker plate
slides over the worm knife drive pin, and is held from rotating by pins in the grinding bowl. Put on the retaining
ring.
ONLY HAND TIGHTEN RETAINING RING
For best results, use knife and plate as a set. Do not operate machine for any period of time without product
in the grinding bowl. This will cause heating and dulling of the knife and plate.
10. Check placement of all warning labels and Manual. Machine is now ready for trained operators to process
product.
11. Contact your local Distributor or BIRO directly if you have any questions or problems with the installation or
operation of this machine.
