MAINTENANCE
A. GRINDING BOWL INSTALLATION
1. Mount the grinding bowl on the two threaded studs on the front of the machine. Tighten in position with
provided nuts.
2. Place the grinding auger in the grinding bowl and fully seat rear drive tang into auger drive shaft.
3. Install knife, breaker plate, and end retaining ring.
ONLY HAND TIGHTEN RETAINING RING
B. LUBRICATION
1. MOTOR: The grinder motor has pre-lubricated, sealed motor bearings.
2. ROLLER CHAIN AND DRIVE SPROCKETS: The main drive chain has been pre-lubricated at the factory
to protect it against dirt and moisture. Chain life will vary appreciably depending upon lubrication. The
better the lubrication, the longer the chain life.
Lubrication effectiveness will vary with the amount of lubricant and frequency of application. Ideally, a
luricant lm should always be present between the working parts. Manually lubricate the chain as often as
is needed (possibly once a week). NEVER exceed three months without lubricating.
Lubricating just the outside of the chain does little good. Apply lubrication on the inside of the chain span
so that it will work through the moving parts and joints by centrifugal force as the chain rotates and reaches
the area where one surface “scrubs” another.

4. When the bowl assembly is mounted and tight, there should be approximately ⅛” gap between the back
inside wall of the grinding trough and the back of the auger. The bowl ring wrench which is provided with
each grinder is used for REMOVAL of the end retaining ring for cleaning purposes or for changing knife
and breaker plate.
