Attention
–
Never use your fingers to push nuts. Always move food using the pusher
V3
only,
move it slowly and to not push to a processor too much.
–
Never process food with a diameter of more than 40 mm!
–
We do not recommend processing pistachios, pecans, peanuts, edible chestnuts.
–
If during the processing of a larger number of nuts it will be necessary
to adjust the machine to a smaller size of nuts, it must be cleaned
first. Switch the processor off, remove the accessory and shake out
any remaining kernels and shells (pic. 4). Then the machine can be
adjusted and mounted on the processor again.
–
Nuts which due to their shape and size cannot be crushed even when the nutcracker is
set to
Min.
need to be cracked in another way, e.g. ‘manually’.
Food preparation
The accessory can be used to process walnuts, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, Brazil nuts,
almonds.
Recommendation
–
If you are processing animal feed in addition to food, do not use it for food purposes
and subsequent consumption.
–
Preparation time (processing) depends on the quantity, type and quality of the food
used but the processing is usually completed in minutes.
Setting ‘fineness / roughness’ of crushing
(pic. 3)
Depending on the type/size of the used nuts and the degree of crushing required, use the
control disc
V1
to set the optimum distance of the crushing mechanism so that you are able
to crush the shell. By turning the disc clockwise (i.e. to the right), you reduce the distance
between the crushing wheel and the wall (
Min. 9 mm
); by turning it counterclockwise
(i.e. to the left), you achieve a greater distance between the crushing wheel and the wall
(Max. 29 mm
). Use a few larger nuts for easier setup.
Application
Place either a stainless steel bowl or another suitable container in which you will collect
nuts with the crushed shells under the attachment. Plug the power cord into a socket.
Switch the appliance on by turning the speed control to level
3
. Insert the food into the
filling hole gradually to prevent the neck of the attachment body from filling up to the upper
edge. The pusher
V3
is designed to smoothly move the food into space. Use it with
reasonable force after inserting the individual pieces into the filling opening but not to push
the completely filled neck with food up to the upper edge. The food comes out through the
outlet into the prepared container. Nuts that have not been crushed when passing through
for the first time can be processed after resetting the nutcracker for the second time. After
processing, switch the power unit off by turning the knob to
0/OFF
position.
Storing nuts
Nuts are not intended for long-term storage as they tend to turn rancid soon, catch mould
quickly or are attacked by various pests (food moths), making them unusable for food
purposes. Do not store nuts in an environment where there are strong odours or smells
nearby, as they absorb them.
