OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Dry Blade Container
If purchased, your dry blade container should only be used for hard, dry materials such as grain, and for
kneading dough.
1.
Make sure that the Variable Speed Dial is set to 1.
2.
Securely fasten the 2-part lid. Always use the complete 2-part lid when blending (unless the tamper is
inserted through the lid plug opening). Especially when blending hot ingredients, make sure the lid is
securely latched
.
3.
With the motor off, set the dry blade container on the motor base by aligning it over the centering pad.
Do not ever attempt to put a container on an operating motor base or to operate a motor base without a
container properly in place.
4.
Start with the High/ Variable Switch in the Variable ( ) position. Always start your machine on
Variable speed 1. Activate the machine by turning the On/ Off Switch to On (
|
) then slowly increase
to the desired speed. Your container will shift and get into an aligned position.
5.
After turning the machine off, wait until the blades completely stop before removing the lid or container
from the motor base.
6.
Due to the machine’s speed, and the sometimes short processing times, count your time carefully to
avoid over processing
.
7.
Grinding dry material for more than 2 minutes could damage your machine. Regular use may result in
cosmetic marring of the container and cause the blades to become dull over time
.
8.
Grinding some herbs may release volatile oils, causing the container to discolor permanently. Others
have strong odors that may linger in the container, affecting the flavor of other foods. The grinding of
some herbs and spices may also cause the blade to dull over time, or the container to crack.
