4. Do not overcook potatoes that are to
be sliced. Also it is recommended that
you let them cool first. Potatoes must
be cool and firm to obtain the regular
slices.
If the slicer/shredder does not start (even
after trying the highest speed) the disc has
become blocked by the contents. The
power unit should be:
1. Switched to Off position, “O/Off,” and
unplugged.
2. The continuous shredder should be
removed from the power unit, the cover
removed and the items causing the
blockage removed.
Removing Contents
Before beginning to remove the contents
from the bowl, make sure that the power
unit has been turned to the Off position,
“O/Off.” The continuous shredder may be
removed from the power unit by turning the
shredder clockwise while lifting. With the
continuous shredder removed from the
power unit, depress the release button and
move the arm upward until the bowl can be
removed. The contents of the bowl may now
be poured into a suitable container or bowl,
as desired.
Care and Cleaning
of Continuous Shredder
All components of the continuous shredder
are dishwasher safe. Do not use scouring
cleaners on any of the continuous shredder
parts.
The power unit of the kitchen machine
should be cleaned with a clean, damp cloth
only. Never use coarse or caustic cleaning
products to clean this appliance. Never
immerse the power unit in water.
1. For long slices or long shreds, place
food into the feeding funnel lengthwise.
2. For short or circular slices, place food
in the feeding tube on end. For
example, If you wish to have circular
slices of zucchini or carrots:
• cut to length not to extend above the
top of the feeding tube.
• place the cut zucchini or carrots in
the feeding tube on end until the
feeding tube is packed.
To slice a single narrow item, a carrot for
example:
• place the carrot in the feeding funnel
opposite the cutting edge of the disc.
The wall of the feeding funnel will then serve
to hold the piece vertical.
When using the continuous shredder, be
sure to watch the level in the bowl and stop
the slicing, shredding or grating before the
level of the material being sliced, shredded
or grated blocks the discharge tube.
Slicing and shredding tips:
1. Shopping for fruits and vegetables that
will fit into the feeding funnel will simplify
food preparation.
2. Foods that are to be used together may
be sliced together. This can be used to
your advantage. For example, green
onions and celery are often used
together, but feeding the green onions
into the feeding funnel alone is difficult.
Try slicing the green onions at the same
time as the celery by interspersing
them in the feeding funnel with the
celery.
3. Use the slicing disc to shred lettuce.
