process, add more liquid.

quad knife blade/ dough tool
To fit the quad knife blade, first fit the drive shaft onto the metal
pin in the bottom of the bowl. Then assemble the knife blades in
the order shown taking care to rotate the top blade clockwise
until it fits fully into place. Then fit the knife blade assembly onto
the drive shaft inside the bowl. To remove, grip the assembly by
the top of the drive shaft and remove the entire blade assembly
from the bowl. To separate the quad knife blade, take extra care
to hold each section by the plastic component and rotate the top
blade anticlockwise until it becomes free from the bottom blade.
The knife blade is the most versatile of all the attachments. The length of the
processing time will determine the texture achieved. For coarser textures use
the pulse control.
Use the knife blade for cake and pastry making, chopping raw and cooked
meat, vegetables, nuts, pate, dips, pureeing soups and to also make crumbs
from biscuits and bread.
Use the dough tool for yeasted mixes.
