1. Assemble clear work
bowl on base in
usual way.
2. Pick up adapter stem.
Note that round base
is notched at one end.
Center section is

on both sides.
Hold stem firmly by flat
top and push it down as
far as it will go on motor
shaft.
3. Hold slicing or shredding

sharp cutting blades.
Slide disc over stem and
push it down until its
center collar is flush
with hexagonal section
of stem.
4. Put cover on work bowl,
lock it into place and
insert food in feed tube.
(If you are slicing, first
cut one end of food flat.
Place in feed tube flat
side down.) See page 11
for guidelines on how to
get consistent slices and
shreds.
5. Insert pusher. Use mod-
erate pressure to push
down on pusher with
one hand while holding
control switch in PULSE
position with other hand

shredded. This will only
take a few seconds.
Wait until disc stops

this could damage

shredding disc before
removing work bowl. To
remove it, grasp flat top
section of adapter stem
and lift it straight up.
Then turn bowl clockwise
to remove it from base
