Cleaning and care

When cleaning the entire unit, hand washing is recommended.

After washing, dry all parts thoroughly by hand. Do not allow to
air dry.

Peeling and coring/slicing blades can be washed in a dishwasher.

A drop of vegetable oil on the moving parts will insure smooth
operation for next use.

Tips and tricks

When the coring/slicing of the apple is finished, the apple looks
like a spring. Use a paring knife to slice down one side of the
apple for uniform rings. Use a paring knife to slice down
opposite sides of the apple for uniform slices.

Apples and potatoes that are firm, blemish free, and uniform in
shape work best. For best results, use small and medium sized
apples. Very large apples may have undesirable results.

US Grade #1 potatoes will yield the best results.

Avoid using soft fruit. Soft fruit will have problems peeling and
staying in place on the fork. Freshly picked apples are less likely
to be soft or mealy inside, making them a great choice.

If no suitable mounting surface is available for the suction base
model, attach to a clean cookie sheet or glass baking dish. This
will provide a smooth and non-porous surface while also
containing the juice and waste for easy cleanup.

If no suitable mounting surface is available for the clamp base
model, consider a collapsible wooden tray table. Make sure sure
the edge is squared and not beveled.

Dehydrating Apples

1. Dehydrating apples not only allows you to preserve apples for

future use, but to make a nutritious, sweet snack. With your
Johnny Apple Peeler the most difficult step will be deciding
which type of apple to use.

2. Choose firm, unblemished apples.

3. In a bowl, mix two quarts of cool water with one cup of lemon

juice. This mixture will be used for dipping the slices to prevent
the apples from browning.
