Installing Rear Machine Guard
Loosen the two bolts, one on the Hopper and one on the rear of the machine. Place Rear Machine Guard under the washers located under the bolt heads. Tighten bolts using the provided Speed Driver. To activate the interlock, slide push rod into the plunger, inside the keylatch, and turn rod to the right. This will lock the push rod in place and activate the interlock.
Installing the Feed Tray
Place stainless steel tube of Feed Tray over the Hopper. Make sure the Plunger on the bottom of Feed Tray depresses the Tower Stem inside the Tower Sleeve.
Installing Machine onto Riser Platform
Place machine on the riser platform making sure the 4 legs of the machine go into the 4 leg wells on the Riser Platform. The Picture shown shows the front view of the Riser Platform.

Adjusting the Paper Attachment for different size paper
1. The Paper Pin Bracket can be adjusted for different paper by loosening the bolts. To avoid improper paper feeding, the correct setting is to have the leading edge of the paper in line with the front edge of the roller.
2. The Paper Attachment can also move for further adjustment by loosening the set bolt and sliding the attachment. The set collar(not shown) located on the support shaft may need to be loosened to move the Paper Attachment toward the mold plate.
Setting the Ring Pin Pressure Plate for your Patty Size
The Purpose of the Pressure Plate is to entrap the amount of product necessary to form your patty and to control the firmness of your patty. With the Pressure Plate set correctly you will in turn have less leakage, oozing, over working of your product, and less strain on your machine.
If your patty weight is 8 ounces, keep the ring pin in the storage hole as described in the picture. This will allow the Pressure Plate to move all the way into the Hopper and stop on the welded stop. This setting traps the most product and is the maximum volume setting.
If your patty weight is 4 ounces, place the ring pin in the 4 ounce hole.
If your patty weight is 6 ounces, place the ring pin in the 6 ounce hole. If you would like to have a tightly packed patty, move the ring pin to a higher than recommended setting. THESE ARE ONLY RECOMMENDED SETTINGS. A VARIETY OF CIRCUMSTANCES MAY CALL FOR YOU TO INSERT THE RING PIN IN A DIFFERENT LOCATION.

Proper Procedure for Operating a PR12
When the Model PR12 is fully assembled with all guards secured in their proper place, put product to be molded in the Feed Tray. Push the product through the holes in the Feed Tray Guard, or under the Feed Tray guard and into the Hopper. DO NOT PUT HANDS OR FINGERS, OR FOREIGN OBJECTS, SUCH AS STOMPERS OR
PLUNGERS INTO THE HOPPER. THERE ARE NO STOMPERS OR PLUNGERS NECESSARY WHEN USING THIS UNIT, THEREFORE NONE ARE SUPPLIED. After you allow product to drop into the Hopper turn
the machine on by moving the On/Off switch down towards the on position. The machine may need to cycle a few times to prime the machine with product. As patties are being formed, continue to push product through the holes and under the Feed Tray Guard. Patty paper may be added to the machine as needed. The machine can hold up to 3/4 inch of paper at a time, but no more. As the Mold Plate moves back and forth to form patties, a thin coating of product may accumulate over its surface, the Knock Out Cup, or on the front of the Hopper and Transition Plate. This accumulation does occur on all molding machines an it is nothing to be concerned with. Do Not attempt to clean this accumulation while machine is plugged in. There are certain machine settings that may lessen this accumulation.

Changing Your Machine’s Mold Plate
Always disconnect the machine from its power source
before attempting to change or clean any of the machines component parts.
First remove the T-Knob from the Back Drive of the Mold Plate, then pull the Mold Plate out from the rear of the machine. If you prefer, remove the Mold Plate from the machine without removing the T­Knob from the Back Drive. Simply unhook Connecting Arm from the T-Knob and slide the Mold Plate from the rear of the machine. When changing the Mold Plate always use the corresponding Transition Plate. The thickness fraction stamped on the Transition Plate should match the fraction stamped on the front right corner of the Mold Plate. For example: if your Mold Plate is stamped “4F 1⁄2” then the Transition Plate should be stamped “1/2” The Transition Plate is removed by removing the four Hopper hold down Bolts and the Feeder Hold Down Bolt. Once these bolts are removed lift the Feeder from the Hopper and the hopper from the machine. Once the Hopper and Feeder are removed lift the Transition Plate and replace it with a different size. Make sure the fraction that is stamped on the Transition plate is facing the front of the machine. After putting the new Transition Plate in place replace the Hopper and Feeder, then install the same thickness mold plate. Be sure to replace the Knock Out Cup to match the new Mold Plate size.
