INSTALLATION
Remove Nut Butter Machine from carton and inspect for damage that may have occurred in
shipment. Mill should be operated on a sturdy counter or table, ideally a location that can be seen by
your customers while the machine is operating, without use of any extension cords.

SET UP INSTRUCTIONS

• Loosen the chute knob on the front of the hopper.

• Install plastic chute onto the hopper.

• Secure the chute by tightening the chute knob.

• Plug the unit into a 115 volt outlet, with a dedicated 20 AMP circuit.

• Pour properly sized nuts into the chute. Chute will hold approximately 17.5 lb.
(IMPORTANT – Not all nut types can be used in this machine)

• Place the chute cover onto the plastic chute.

OPERATING PROCEDURES

• Push the green “START” button and it will illuminate and the machine will start.

• To stop the machine at any time, simply push the red “STOP” button. The machine will shut off.

• The machine will shut off automatically.
Timer: This machine is equipped with an internal timer which can be adjusted to run for
times ranging from 1 second to 17 minutes with each push of the “START” button. The
machine is factory set to run for 24 seconds. This is sufficient time to fill a 16 oz (1 LB.)
container of PEANUT Butter. (Volumes will vary depending on the type of product being
ground).

If more butter is needed you can simply start the cycle again by pressing the green start
button after the first cycle has finished. You can always stop the machine at any time by
pressing the red stop button.

Run all product out of the machine at the end of the day. This will prevent clogging the next day.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

This machine was lubricated, sealed and test run at the factory. No further maintenance is required
other than keeping the machine clean. (See Cleaning Instructions)

TROUBLE SHOOTING

• Peanut Butter is dry & coarse—Either the peanuts don’t have the proper amount of oil content
or the space between grinding plates is too wide, or the grinding plates are worn.

• The machine is running hot, slow, weak or skipping and stalling. Several issues can cause this
problem.

• First, check the electrical supply to the machine. Be certain it meets the required 115
volt, 20 AMP specifications.

• Secondly, if the space between the grinding plates is too narrow, this may cause
overheating. See “Adjustment of Auger” section below to correct this.

• Thirdly, if the product you are grinding is chopped too small, this will send too much
product to the cutter plates too quickly and will cause a motor overload resulting in
intermittent stalling.

• Lastly, if the cutter plates are worn, this will cause discoloring of the butter coming out
of the machine. The machine may also skip or stall if the cutter plates are worn. In either
case, new cutter plates should be installed.

INPUT NUTS & CONTAINERS

Peanuts- Whole peanuts CANNOT be ground in this machine. Make sure your peanuts are dry
roasted, split, blanched and vacuum sealed to insure freshness. Remember, a low priced peanut is
not always indicative of a good quality, superior tasting peanut butter. Your peanut butter can only
be as good as the peanuts you are grinding. We’ve been packing a specially sized peanut butter
stock product for over 20 years now—we know what peanuts make the best peanut butter.

Almonds & Cashews – It is crucial to this machine running properly to have properly sized nut
stock. Whole nuts CANNOT be ground in this machine. Product which is too large or too small will
frequently clog and potentially damage the machine.

Grinding ANY other product, (other than peanuts, almond, or cashew stock) unless supplied by
Hampton Farms / Olde Tyme Foods, or one of its wholly owned subsidiaries voids all warranties.

If you would like to try our nut stock, contact your distributor or call our order department at
18003566533. We ship from 3 national warehouse locations to insure fast, low cost delivery.
Additionally, we offer pre-printed, 3-color containers and lids which stress the naturalness of peanut
butter and include Nutrition Facts data. These items can increase your nut butter sales.
