In addition, the cutting center includes 
two cutting surfaces, the removable 
white cutting board and the surface of 
the cutting board base. You may cut 
on both surfaces using your regular 
kitchen knives, but you should always 
use the white cutting board with the  
LeverEdge

 knife and the ripple cut 

knife.
Each cutting surface has a cutting zone 
which is a triangular area defined by 
two lines (Fig. A). 

Caution: Knives 

are very sharp; to avoid injury al-
ways use extra caution when fingers 
are within or near the cutting zone.
