Proper Cleaning Instructions

 

 
In order ensure operational tranquility and the support general welfare of 
yourself and your new machine; please use the following cleaning 
instructions! 

 

1.

 

Do not wash the body of the machine in water. After each use, 
disassemble the unit and wash it with mild soap and water. Then rinse 
parts and dry them well.  

2.

 

Wipe down the body of the unit with a lightly damp cloth and dry it 
completely; never immerse the entire unit nor its’ motor in water nor any 
other type of liquid.  

3.

 

Never use paint thinner, mineral spirits, nor any solvent of the like, to 
wipe any part of the machine, whether plastic or the body.  

 

Basic Operational Instructions

 

 

Please read the following instructions in order to properly operate the 
machine. 

 

1.

 

Extend as much cord from the processor as required. 

2.

 

After ensuring that the machine is in the “off” position, insert the unit’s 
plug into an outlet that is compatible. The machine is “off” when the 
lever is pulled up; thus releasing the head of the processor. 

3.

 

Raise the machine head. It will open to the left and rest. 

4.

 

The base plate should always be attached in order to “shoot” out food. 
Attach which ever type of disc you desire. For example; if using the 
“jullian” disc, the center ring and hollow part should be facing down so 
that the disc locks into place. 

5.

 

Prior to processing food, make sure that it is cleaned, and that the food 
has been cut into small enough pieces to fit into the feeder opening. Use 
the pusher to feed food; never use hands! 

6.

 

Close the head of the machine and lock the clamp (on the right) all the 
way down until it locks in place. 

7.

 

Make sure that the cutting area (or “discs”) revolves properly prior to 
placing food into the processor. 

8.

 

 Push food into feeder opening slowly and steadily. Never use excessive 
force with pusher, this can cause it to deflect into cutting knife.  

9.

 

Once processing is complete, flip the switch upward to the “off” position 
and disconnect the cord from its’ outlet.
