mechanical adjustment.
Operation
1. Keep hands as well as spatulas and other uten-
sils away from moving blades or discs while pro-
cessing food, to prevent the possibility of severe
personal injury or damage to food processor. A
plastic scraper may be used, but only when the
food processor motor is stopped.
2. Avoid coming into contact with moving parts.
Never push food down by hand when slicing or
shredding. Always use pusher.
3. Make sure motor has completely stopped before
removing cover.
4. Never store any blade or disc on motor shaft. To
reduce the risk of injury, no blade or disc should
be placed on the shaft except when the bowl is
properly locked in place and the processor is in
use. Store blades and discs, as you would sharp
knives, out of reach of children.
5. Be sure cover and feed tube are securely locked
in place before operating food processor.
6. Never try to override or tamper with cover
interlock mechanism.
Cleaning
To protect against risk of electrical shock, do
not put base in water or other liquids.
