Keeping your Lakeland 26918 Electric Meat Mincer clean is vital for both its performance and your safety. Here's a step-by-step guide to cleaning it:
- Safety First: Before you begin, always switch off the meat mincer and unplug it from the power outlet.
- Disassembly: Carefully take apart all the removable components of the meat mincer. Refer to your user manual for the correct disassembly procedure.
- Washing the Parts: Wash the plastic parts in warm, soapy water. For the metal components, use a washing-up brush. Be extra cautious when handling the sharp cutting blade.

- Proper Storage: Store your meat mincer with the power cable loosely coiled. Avoid tightly wrapping the cable around the appliance.
- Regular Checks: Inspect the parts for wear or damage after every few uses. Always clean the meat mincer thoroughly before its first use and after each subsequent use. By following these cleaning instructions, you'll help your Lakeland 26918 Electric Meat Mincer stay in top condition, providing you with safe and efficient meat processing for years to come.
