MEAT GRINDER
SPECIFICATIONS
GENERAL: The Model 4146 grinds fresh or tempered frozen meat
(above 26°F). This grinder is designed for the fast, clean cutting of
meat where high-quality ground products are of prime importance.
MOTOR: Hobart designed 5 H.P., heavy duty. Front ball bearing
receives oil lubrication from transmission. Rear ball bearing is
grease-packed, sealed for life. Ventilation is provided through
screened openings in base.
ELECTRICAL: 200/60/3, 230/60/3 and 460/60/3 — UL Listed.
380/50/3 — Not submitted for UL Listing.
MOTOR CONTROLLER: Magnetic starter featuring automatic
resetting bimetallic ther mal overload protection. Starter is mounted
inside machine enclosure and actuated by rubber-capped pushbuttons located on right side of machine for standard right-to-left
operation. For applications above 250 volts, a transformer is
furnished to reduce voltage for use in the electrical interlock and
control circuit.
TRANSMISSION: Geared, double reduction, consisting of
oil-lubricated hardened helical cut steel gears. Worm speed is
215 RPM. Thrust from grinder worm is taken by a large tapered
roller bearing mounted in attachment hub on face of transmission
housing. Double seals prevent loss of oil or entrance of moisture.
GRINDER END: This unit is supplied with a No. 46 wide-mouth
grinding end with a separate cast-iron bowl. The cylinder is
removable when the pan is unclamped and raised to rest on a
support provided to hold it in a tilted position. The grinding end
is mounted to the transmission on two studs. It can be removed
easily by loosening two cylinder nuts and rotating the cylinder a
few degrees until the mounting ange clears the nuts. The cylinder
is a spiral uted type, equipped with a deep-uted worm, designed
for standard No. 32 knives and plates (not furnished). The cylinder,
bowl, worm, and adjusting ring are heavily tinned cast iron.
CAPACITY: The Model 4146 Grinder has a fresh beef capacity of
60 to 65 pounds per minute, rst cutting, through a 1⁄8" plate and
45 to 50 pounds of beef per minute, second cutting, through a 1⁄8"

with maximum capacity. A cast aluminum guard is per manently

mounted to the sides of the pan. This guard, plus the unique
bowl design, protects from accidental contact with the worm. An
electrical interlock system is pro vided which shuts off current to
the motor as soon as the pan is separated from the cylinder. This
interlock prevents the machine from running or being started when
the bowl is not in position on the cylinder. Both the bowl and the
pan must be in their proper operating locations before the machine
can be started.

(9"), measures 49" long, 263⁄4" wide, and 41⁄2" deep at front edge.

ease of feeding along with maximum safety, is mounted to the
sides of the pan with hardened steel drive screws.
