INSTRUCTIONS
AND USE
CHOPPING/MIXING BLADE
The metal chopping blade chops raw and
cooked fruits, vegetables, meat, fish and
cheese to the exact consistency you want,
from coarse to fine, even to a purée. It
chops nuts, makes nut butters, mayon-
naise and sauces, and mixes tender, flaky
pastry. The metal chopping blade also
mixes cakes, frostings, cookies, quick
breads, muffins and biscuits.
1. With the machine properly assembled
and engaged, and ingredients in the
work bowl, turn the dial to desired
speed. LO speed is recommended for
making doughs and batters. HI speed
is recommended for most other
chopping, processing and slicing/
shredding tasks.
2. To use the Pulse feature, assemble
unit as stated above. Turn the dial to
the left Pulse position. The Pulse will
operate for as long as it is held in
position. We recommend 2-second
pulsing to achieve even, controlled
chopping and processing.
3. Wait for the blade to stop spinning.
Once it does, turn the cover counter-
clockwise to unlock, and remove by
lifting it off.
Remove the bowl from the base of the
machine before removing the blade.
Turn the bowl counterclockwise to un-
lock from the base, and lift straight up
to remove. To prevent the blade from
falling from the work bowl onto your
hand when emptying the work bowl,
use the following method: Be sure your
hands are dry. Grab the blade hub and
remove the metal blade before tilting
the bowl, using a spatula to scrape off
any food. Carefully lift the blade out of
the work bowl.
REVERSIBLE
SLICING/SHREDDING DISCS
The slicing disc makes whole slices. It
slices fruits and vegetables, cooked meat
and semi-frozen raw meat. The shredding
disc shreds most firm and hard cheeses.
It also shreds vegetables like potatoes,
carrots and zucchini.
1. Properly assemble machine and fit with
desired slicing/shredding disc.
2. Trim ingredients to fit the feed tube.
Remove pusher and place ingredients
in feed tube. Best results are achieved
when feed tube is mostly full.
3. Insert the pusher. While using medium
pressure, turn the dial to HI speed until
all ingredients have passed into the
work bowl.
4. Turn the dial to the Off position
when finished.
5. Remove the pusher and refill
ingredients as needed. Repeat.
NOTE: Always use pusher when slicing
or shredding. Never put your hands in
the feed tube when unit is running.

you get an even chop without
overprocessing. Check the texture
frequently by looking through the

continue pulsing until you achieve
the desired texture.
