YOU
MADE A
GOOD
CHOICE!

Congratulations on your selection of the Chef’sChoice®
Premium Food Grinder Attachment. As an owner of this
Chef’sChoice® attachment, you have the finest and
easiest-to-use product for grinding meat and other
foods. You can be assured that this grinder attachment

Installing the Food Grinder Attachment to the Stand Mixer

Note: Clean all grinder parts before first use (see section on “Cleaning and Maintenance”).

1. Always make sure stand mixer speed control is “off” and the stand mixer is not plugged in during installation or
detachment of the grinder attachment.

2. Loosen the locking knob (A in Figure 2), by turning it counterclockwise.

3. If present, remove the attachment hub cover or flip up the hub cover.

4. Insert the assembled grinder attachment (items 1 to 5 in
Figure 1) into the attachment hub (B in Figure 2) of the
stand mixer. Make sure the locking knob (A) screw is
fully retracted and does not interfere with the insertion.
Slightly twist the grinder attachment back and forth
to ensure that the grinder shaft (C in Figure 2) seats
properly into the square hub sockets of the stand mixer
hub. When the grinder attachment is properly positioned,
the pin on its housing will fit into the notch on the hub
rim. Tighten the locking knob snugly until the grinder
attachment is properly secured in the motor housing.
Do not over tighten the locking knob.
