PROCESSING PRODUCT
Before processing product, please review the plate usage chart on page 8, and please note that the feed
plate is equipped with an adjusting screw and jam nut. This assembly should be adjusted until there is no
chance of the feed plate coming in contact with the cutting surfaces. If the feed plate comes in contact
with the rotating cutting surfaces, both components will be damaged.
TO PROCESS PRODUCT:
Connect the VS2000 electrical power supply cord, and turn the unit on.
Lift the feed plate to expose the processing plate unit and drop product into the feed hopper. Keep
hands and fingers out of the hopper. With the feed plate, gently push the product into the rotating plate
unit.
If you experience a problem in processing, shut the VS2000 power unit off and refer to the trouble
shooting guide on page 14.
