A Blade (7)
Caution! The blade is very sharp. Only take hold of it by the plastic knob.
Before use, carefully remove the protective cover (I A) by standing the blade

lifts off. To re-attach the protective cover after use, place the blade on the
table and slip the protective cover over the knob. Hold the protective cover
with one hand and pull the knob firmly with the other hand so that the blade
securely locks into the protective cover.
Place the blade into the bowl before adding ingredients.
After use, always remove the blade before removing the processed food.
