SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
The 4732 and 4732A Choppers are equipped with a 3 HP motor that rotates the worm at 151 RPM. The
4732 and 4732A are designed to use a #32 size knife and plate. Knives and plates, available at extra
cost, are not included with the chopper.
The stainless steel feed pan on the 4732 is not removable and must be cleaned in place. Model 4732A
has a removable stainless steel feed pan and an interlock that requires the feed pan to be in place
before the machine can be turned on. On both models, a cast aluminum guard is permanently mounted
to the front and sides of the feed pan. Dimensions on the feed pan are 34" long x 21" wide x 5" deep.
The motor and switch housing is available in painted steel or stainless steel. The table models use 5
high legs that provide 8" clearance between the table and the lowest point on the adjusting ring. Leg
sets of other heights (15", 18" or 21") are available to convert the 4732 or 4732A into a floor model.
Sausage stuffers for hog or sheep casings are available accessories.

damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Remove the carton from around the machine. Remove the four bolts holding the machine to the skid.
Unpack the feed stomper.
Prior to installation, verify that the electrical service agrees with the specifications on the machine data
plate.
Use the spanner wrench to loosen the adjusting ring. Unscrew and remove the adjusting ring using both
hands. Remove and discard the retaining washer and rubber pad used at the front of the worm where
the knife and plate are to be installed.
The chopper must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized after installation and before operation. Refer
to CLEANING (page 7).
