USING THE ATTACHMENTS (con’t)
Suggestions for Use:
1) Use fresh ingredients. Do not cut food too small. Fill the
width of the large feed tube fairly full. This prevents the
food from slipping sideways during processing.
Alternatively, use a small feed tube.
2) When slicing and shredding, food placed upright comes
out shorter than food placed horizontally.
3) There will always be a small amount of excess food on the
plate or in the bowl after processing.
Stainless Steel Discs: Figure 8
Double Sided Thick / Thin Slicing and Shredding Discs:
1) Use the shredding section for cheese, carrots, potatoes
and foods of a similar texture.
2) Use the slicing section for cheese, carrots, potatoes,
cabbage, cucumbers and onions.
3) Thick disc (2.5 mm) / Thin disc (1.5 mm)
Julienne Disc: (4x4 mm)
1) Use it to cut: potatoes for Julienne-style French fries or
ingredients for salads, casseroles and stir frys
(Ex. carrots, cucumbers, etc.) Note: Never remove the lid
until the disc has completely stopped rotating. Handle the
discs with care, they are extremely sharp.
2) Fit the detachable drive shaft and bowl onto the power unit.
Holding the disc by the center grip, place the disc onto the
drive shaft with the side that you want to use facing upright.
Fit the lid.
3) Choose which size feed tube you want to use. The large
feed tube contains a smaller feed tube for processing
individual items or small ingredients. To use the small feed
tube, place it inside the large feed tube.
4) Put the food in the feed tube. Turn the unit “on” and push
food down evenly with the stomper. Note: Never put your
fingers in the feed tube when the unit is “on”.
