Troubleshooting
PROBLEM EASY SOLUTION
Food is unevenly processed
•
Ingredients should be cut evenly into 1 inch (2.5cm) pieces before
processing.
•
Ingredients should be processed in batches to avoid overloading.
Slices are slanted or uneven.
•
Place evenly cut food into the feed chute. Apply even pressure on the
pusher.
Food falls over in
the feed chute
•
The large feed chute must be packed full for best results.
•
If processing smaller quantities, place items to the far left in the feed
chute, or use the small feed chute.
Some food remains on top
of the disc after processing
•
It is normal for small pieces to remain after processing.
Motor slows down when
kneading dough
•
Amount of dough may exceed maximum capacity. Remove half and
process in two batches.
•
Dough may be too wet (see next page). If motor speeds up, continue
processing. If not, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time until the motor
speeds up. Process until dough cleans the side of the processing bowl.
Dough blade doesn’t fully
incorporate ingredients
•
When kneading dough, always start the food processor before adding
liquid. Add liquid in a slow, steady stream, allowing the dry ingredients
to absorb it. If too much liquid is added, wait until ingredients in the
processing bowl have mixed, then add remaining liquid slowly (do not
turn off the machine). Pour liquid onto the dough as it passes under the
feed chute opening; do not pour liquid directly onto the bottom of the
processing bowl.
Dough doesn’t clean inside
of the processing bowl
•
Amount of dough may exceed food processor maximum capacity.
Remove half and process in two batches. Dough may be too dry.
Dough nub forms on
top of dough blade and
dough does not become
uniformly kneaded
•
Stop machine, carefully remove dough, divide it into 3 pieces and
redistribute them evenly in the processing bowl.
Dough feels tough
after kneading
•
Divide dough into 2 or 3 pieces and redistribute evenly in processing
bowl. Process 10 seconds or until uniformly soft and pliable.
Dough is too dry
•
While machine is running, add water through the small feed chute,
1 tablespoon at a time until dough cleans the inside of the
processing bowl.
