SAFETY FEATURES
Blade Safety Guard
The Blade Safety Guard helps protect fingers and hands
from accidental contact with the blade. When the Handle is
squeezed, the Blade Safety Guard is lowered, exposing the
blades so the mandoline is ready for use. When the Handle is
released, the Blade Safety Guard returns to its raised position.
The Blade Safety Guard is only engaged when the Safety
Dial is set to Position 1: Store or Position 2: Blade Guard On.
The Blade Safety Guard is NOT engaged when the Safety
Dial is set to Position 3: Blade Guard Off or Position 4: Blade
Change. See below for more information.
