The upper plate allows for adjusting the thickness of the cuts.
The thickness can be set up to a maximum of around 10 mm
(3/8”).

There are two tightening knobs on either side of La Mandoline,
which are to be loosened when changing the thickness of the slices (1);
there is no need to secure the tightening knobs too strongly, as it is
secure once you feel a reasonable resistance.
Once the knobs are loosened, the upper plate can freely slide up
and down and in turn increases or decreases the thickness of the
cut (2).
Once the desired thickness is obtained the knobs should then be
tightened again to produce the new thickness.
