המעטן. מקום שצוברין שם הזיתים כדי שיתרככו ויהיו ראויות להוציא שמנן:
טובל אחד אחד במלח. שאין קובע אלא במלח וצירוף שתים, הלכך אם מלח ונתן לפניו חייב:
מן המעטן הטהור חייב. וכגון שהאדם הנוטלן טמא, שא״א לו להחזיר את המותר שכבר נטמאו כל אותן שנטל בידו:
מן הטמא פטור. שכיון שהמעטן כולו טמא [והאדם] הנוטלן טמא הרי הוא מחזיר את הנותר:

Mishnayos Maasros Perek 4 Mishnah 4
מעשרות פרק ד׳ משנה ד׳
Bartenura
שותין על הגת – and as for example, when he brought his head and most of his body inside, for one cannot make a decree lest he bring the utensil to him and he drinks outside of the winepress.
ר"א ב"ר צדוק מחייב – for he decreed lest he he take out from wine outside of the winepress.
על החמין חייב – which establishes it [as liable for tithing], because e is not able to return the surplus for he has ruined the wine that is in the winepress, but if he poured with cold [wine], he exempt for he can return the surplus, and the Halakha is according to the Sages.
שותין על הגת. וכגון שהכניס שם ראשו ורובו, דליכא למגזר שמא יביא הכלי אליו וישתה חוץ לגת, דחוץ לגת הוי קבע ואסור לשתות:
בין על החמין. בין שמזג היין בחמין, בין שמזגו בצונן:
ר״א ב״ר צדוק מחייב. דגזר שמא יוציא מן היין חוץ לגת:
על החמין חייב. שהוא קובע, לפי שאינו יכול להחזיר המותר שיקלקל היין שבגת, אבל מזג בצונן פטור שיכול להחזיר המותר. והלכה כחכמים:
