The slider and its pusher
• La Mandoline Swing Plus is delivered
with its receptacle and its pusher. They pro-
tect fingers from the sharp blades and they
must be used at all times.
• Just slide the receptacle on the frame of la
Mandoline. It can not go off the rails.
• Food should be placed into the receptacle
(oversized vegetables or fruits should be
pre-cut in order to fit in the receptacle).
• Place the pusher in the middle of the
receptacle.
• The hand-held pusher actually pushes
the food toward the blades. The interior
pushing plate of the pusher has prongs
and pins to secure the food in place. The
pushing plate is mounted on a spring which
helps to press the food and then slowly
releases it as the vegetables or fruits dimin-
ish after each cut.
• 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”).
• Easy thickness adjustment thanks to a wheel. The upper plate eas-
ily slides up and down
