less flesh with the peel. See page 6 for
instructions.

fruit when first starting to peel.

Peeling arm and/or peeling blade
needs to be adjusted. See page 6
and page 7 for instructions.

Peeling blade and peeling arm have
been adjusted, but peeling blade is still
digging in/gouging fruit when first
starting to peel.

Use only firm fresh apples. If the
apple is soft or the peel is wrinkly the
blade will dig in to the fruit. Carefully
check peeling blade for sharpness. If
blade is damaged or dull contact
customer service.

Apples do not stay in place on fork
when peeling.

Use only firm fresh apples and make
sure it is pressed completely onto the
fork. If the core of the apple is too
soft it will break apart and fall off.

non-

porous. A surface may feel smooth, but
is still a porous surface. Granite, for
example, may feel smooth, but is a
porous surface. Use a surface which is
both smooth and non-porous.

If you have been processing a lot of
juicy apples, you may need to clean up
some of the juice. Clean and dry the
work surface. Clean and dry the suction
base. Reattach the peeler to the surface.
