How to Peel Citrus Well
● Preparation
1) Cut off the top portion at a position where the fruit can be clearly seen.
Slece off
Make a vertical score (cut) to reduce
fouling of the blade during peeling.
Fruit flesh is not visible. Fruit flesh (cross-section of orange
segments) is sufficiently visible
2) Select according to the thickness of the skin.

● Peeling Thickness Adjustment
1) Adjust the peeling thickness on the operation panel according to the thickness of the skin selected.
● For the adjustment value of peeling thickness, "4" is the standard value for a thickness of 1 cm.
* However, the adjustment value varies depending on the variety, production area, harvest time, and maturi-
ty.
2) Try peeling, then adjust the peeling thickness according to the fi nished state.
● If there is peel remaining,"
"press the button and lower the value.
● If too much peel is removed, "
"press the button and increase the value.

3) If the thickness of the citrus skin is thin and less than 5 mm, or when peeling more fi nely, replace the peeler
blade from S-1 "Saw Extra Thick" to S-2 "Saw Thick Peel".
● The higher the adjustment value of the peeling thickness, the thinner it can be peeled off, but the surface
becomes polygonal, the fi nish is bad, and it becomes easy for peel to remain.
● By changing the stripping thickness of the peeler blade itself even though the adjustment value of peeling
thickness is the same, the thickness of peeling skin becomes thinner.
S-1 "Saw Extra Thick"
S-2 "Saw Thick Peel"
