Operating Precautions Read and follow ALL instructions and warnings before operating your Grain Mill for the first time. If certain precautions are not taken, damage to the Grain Mill and/or injury to persons could result. • • • • • • • • • • DO NOT turn the handle of the Grain Mill if it is empty. This will damage the milling head. Never put any foreign objects into the Grain Mill. Small rocks or pieces of metal could damage the milling cones.
Care Instructions To ensure your Grain Mill works properly at all times, please follow the care and handling instructions below: • • • • • • When you receive your Grain Mill, dismantle all parts and wipe them off using a damp cloth to remove any residue from manufacturing and packaging. Small parts are easily lost, so be sure to handle with care. After each use, the Grain Mill can be easily cleaned with a dry, soft brush or soft cloth.
Mounting Instructions Choose a firm, sturdy surface when mounting the Grain Mill. The best surfaces are built-in counter tops and heavy tables, like a dining room table. These types of surfaces ensure the Grain Mill can remain in place while grinding. Open the clamp screw as wide as it will go by turning counter-clockwise. Then push the Grain Mill forward, so the inside of the body sits flush with the edge of the surface.
Hopper Assembly Assemble the hopper by lining up the sides and firmly pressing them together, until both sides are fully touching and no gaps remain. After correct assembly, the hopper should fit snugly on the top of the Grain Mill. If the hopper doesn’t fit correctly then the halves have not been pressed together far enough. Grain Mill Assembly Instructions For proper assembly, please follow ALL instructions below: 1.
4. Place the hopper on top of the Grain Mill, making sure it is pushed all the way down. 5. Place a shallow bowl or pan in front of the Grain Mill, under the milling cone, before you begin the grinding process (see picture below). 6. Your Grain Mill is now completely assembled and ready for use. Please see the Use Instructions on p. 7 before operating your product.
Use Instructions DO NOT turn the handle if the Grain Mill is empty. This will damage the milling heads. Now that you have assembled your Grain Mill properly, read through ALL of the following instructions before you start the grinding process. The first time you use the Grain Mill be sure to dispose of the first 2-3 cups of grain which has been ground as it may contain metal residue from the manufacturing process. 1.
GRAIN MILL TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE PROBLEM The Grain mill rocks from side to side when the handle is cranked. The grain mill only grinds coarse no matter what I do. The nylon tip is missing from my adjustment knob. I am trying to grind (X) and it doesn’t seem to be working. When I turn the handle, very little or no flour comes out. 8 SOLUTION The Grain Mill is not properly mounted and clamped. See p. 4 for mounting instructions.
½ c. Butter, melted ½ c. Sugar 2 c. Water, very warm 2 tbsp Active Dry Yeast Wheat Dough Recipe In a stand mixer, beat the above ingredients well. Then add: 2 c. White Wheat Flour 2 Eggs, beaten 2 tsp Salt Once all of the ingredients are mixed together, add 3-4 more cups of regular white flour, a little at a time, checking the consistency of the dough constantly. When finished, the dough should feel very sticky. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes, then mix for 5 more minutes.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING! - Failure to follow these safety instructions correctly will lead to a risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS When using electric appliances, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following: • Read and follow all instructions before operating the motor. • Connect motor to a properly grounded outlet only (See ‘Grounding Instructions’ on p. 12). • Do not use electrical outlet adapters with this appliance.
• Never use the grain mill without the hopper in place. • Do not cover the motor ventilation holes. • Make sure the motor is attached to the grain mill properly before operating (See ‘Motor Use Instructions’ on p. 14). • This appliance is for household use only. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS - (See diagrams below) THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDED. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Circuit Breaker Instructions: The motor includes a resettable overload breaker to prevent risk of personal injury or grain mill damage. Instructions for resetting overload breaker: Turn the switch to the off (“O”) position and unplug the motor from the outlet. Remove the motor from the grain mill. Wait 10 minutes for the motor to cool, then manually reset the breaker by pressing in on the top of the breaker until it locks.
Motor Use Instructions Make sure you have read the Important Safety Instructions on p. 11 before installing the motor. Installation Steps: 1. Remove the motor from the packaging and make sure the power switch is in the off (“O”) position (see diagram on p. 13) and the motor is unplugged. 2. Use the crank handle to position the grain mill shaft so the motor shaft key is aligned with the notches (see diagram at right). 3.
6. Make sure the power switch is still in the off (“O”) position and plug the motor cord into a correct power source (see diagram on p. 12). 7. WARNING! - Do not turn on the motor at this point! You will damage your grain mill by running it without grain. 8. Now that the motor is connected properly and plugged in, you can add your grain to the hopper. If needed, review the Grain Mill Use Instructions on p. 7 before you begin the grinding process. 9.
3. The motor may be tight or hard to remove. If so, rock it up and down gently as you pull straight back. (See diagram below). 4. If needed, you can clean the motor by using a damp cloth to wipe away any dust or residue on the outside surfaces. Dry immediately. Never immerse in water or disassemble to clean. 5. To store, place the motor back in its original box and packaging and keep it in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and extreme temperatures.
MOTOR TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE PROBLEM I cannot attach the motor. I cannot remove the motor. The motor is working but no grain is going through the mill. Grain is going through, but the grain mill is producing very little or no flour. The motor does not turn on. The motor does not turn on and the overload switch is not tripped. SOLUTION Review p. 14 on how to attach the motor, including how to correctly align the motor shaft with the grain mill shaft.
