How To Use
1. Attach the food chamber to the motorized base.
Insert the two tabs on the back of the food cham-
ber into the two tab pockets on the motorized
base (Fig. B).
Rotate the food chamber clockwise until it is
upright and you hear it snap in place.
NOTE:
If the food chamber will not rotate to
the upright position, make sure the switch is in
the OFF position.
2. Insert one of the slicing or shredding cones into
the slicing/shredding chute. Adjust the cone
until you feel the end fit into the socket. Then attach the twist-lock ring by turning it
clockwise until it locks into place.
CAUTION!
The metal portions on the exterior of the slicing and shredding cones are
sharp. Handle with care.
3. The adjustable food guide can be separated to adapt to small
or large loads.
To use the food guide for large loads,
fill the clear food
chamber with the food that will be processed. Slowly push
the food down the chamber and through the chute using
the guide.
To use the food guide for small loads that you want to
process upright,
e.g. carrots, you will need to separate it
into two pieces.
Grasp the top rim of the guide and, while pressing the release
tab with your index finger (Fig C), pull back on the guide
slightly and lift the top of the guide out of the bottom piece.
Do not push forward on the guide while trying to separate
it. Another way to disengage the two pieces is to press the
release tab with your thumb and then lift up the on the edge
underneath the tab.
Notice that the bottom piece has an open compartment which
will hold the smaller food load (Fig D).
Place the bottom piece of the guide into the food chamber
and put the food you would like processed into the open
compartment (Fig E).
Use the top piece of the guide to push the food through the
chamber during processing.
Make sure the bottom piece
of the food guide remains in the food chamber when
processing small loads.
4. For best slicing and shredding results, it is important that the food
be prepared properly and placed in the food chamber as follows:
• Cut food so that it does not extend above the top of the food
chamber and will fit loosely in the chamber. Food that does
not fit loosely in the food chamber may become wedged in
the chamber and will not discharge properly.
If it is too large to fit loosely in the chamber, cut food into
smaller pieces. For small loads, use the adjustable food guide
as instructed in step 3.
• Stack food into the food chamber upright for short slices or
horizontally for longer slices (Fig. F).
• Push food through the food chamber using an even pressure
on the food guide.
5. The Professional SaladShooter
is designed to be hand-held,
providing you with the flexibility to point and shoot wherever
you want. It can also, however, be used on the counter.
Simply place a small bowl under the opening of the slicing/
shredding chute.
If you are going to slice or shred into a small bowl or onto a
small area, you may want to use the funnel guide. It directs
foods right where you want them. Position the funnel guide
so the embossed line on the outer rim is centered with the
clear food chamber (Fig. G). Then snap the funnel guide
onto the twist lock ring.
When using the slicer/shredder with the funnel guide at-
tached, hold the unit so that the open end of the funnel is over the spot on which you
wish to shoot the ingredients.
If moist ingredients, such as lettuce and carrots, do not readily come out of the funnel
during processing, shake the unit slightly.
When using the funnel guide with the slicing cones, be sure the diameter of the sliced
food is less than the diameter of the small end of the funnel.
6. Plug the cord into a 120VAC electrical outlet only. Begin slicing or shredding. Use the
power switch to turn the unit on and off.
CAUTION!
To avoid personal injury, never use your hands to push food through the food
chamber. Always use the food guide and always keep your hands away from the slicing/
shredding chute when the unit is running.
