3 The Nicer Dicer Fusion smart in practical use
Insert the cutting top at an angle of 90° (vertically) to the cutting base in
the side slots provided. The cutting lid has an opening mechanism with 3
settings.
There are different pin blocks and a cutting stamp for the various blade
inserts to achieve the best possible cutting results.
There is an integrated pin block (A) in the cutting top. There are also two
detachable pin blocks (B) (large and small), which can be fixed in place
next to the integrated pin block.
They are fixed as follows:
There is a cross-shaped recess next to the integrated pin block. On the
back of each detachable pin block and the cutting stamp, there is a cross-
shaped mounting. Push the mounting on the pin block or cutting stamp
into the recess with gentle pressure until the block or stamp is fixed in
place and ready to use.
The automatic opening mechanism can be set by means of two pins (A) in
three positions. Lock the protruding pins to achieve the required setting (B):
• Setting 1 = pins
not
locked:
no
automatic lid opening
• Setting 2 =

• Setting 3 =
both

fast automatic
lid opening
Use of the detachable pin block and cutting stamp:
Blade inserts with two different cutting surfaces (for explanation, see 3.1):
-
Use of one
cutting surface = integrated pin block suffices, no other insert required
-
Use of both cutting surfaces = also use detachable pin block (small)
XXL blade with continuous cutting surface (for explanation, see 3.2)
-
Detachable pin block (large) must also be used.
Blade insert for cutting into quarters/eighths (for explanation, see 3.3)
-
Cutting stamp must also be used.
Note:
The pin blocks and cutting stamp are required for the cutting process as they push the ingredients to be
cut continuously through the blades, thereby ensuring a clean cut.

3.1 Blade inserts with 2 different cutting surfaces
The blade inserts have 2 different cutting surfaces, referred to as position 1
and 2 in these instructions for use (see figure). Food can be cut on both sur-
faces and it is possible to cut two different ingredients at the same time. The
following should be noted in this connection:
If one of the ingredients to be cut is
harder
than the other, place the
harder one in
position 1
(greater leverage).
If one of the ingredients to be cut is
larger
than the other, place it in
position 2
(longer lever travel).
Position 1
Position 2
