12-Cup Food Processor and the
accessories for it:
12- and 4-cup work bowls, work bowl cover,
large and small metal chopping/mixing blades,
dough blade, adjustable slicing disc, reversible
shredding disc, stem adapter, large and small
pushers, spatula, and instruction/recipe book.
CAUTION: THE CUTTING TOOLS HAVE VERY
SHARP EDGES. To avoid injury when
unpacking the parts, please follow these
instructions.
1. Place the box on a low table or on the floor
next to the kitchen counter or table where
you intend to keep the food processor.
Be sure the box is right side up.
2. Open top flaps. You will see a rectangular
block of plastic foam that holds the processor
parts, each fitted into a cavity in the foam.
Remove the instructional material first.
The spatula and stem adapter (A) are in
cavities at one short side of the foam block.
Remove them next.
The bowl cover (B) is in a cavity at the center
of the foam block. Grasp the edge of the bowl
cover and lift it straight up to remove it.
The adjustable slicing disc (C) and reversible
shredding disc (D) are on either long side of
the foam block. Slide them out of their
grooves WITH GREAT CARE. THE BLADES
ARE VERY SHARP.
Remove the large (E) and small (F) metal
chopping/mixing blades from the foam block.
CAREFULLY REMOVE THEM BY
GRASPING THE CENTER HUB AND
LIFTING THEM STRAIGHT UP. NEVER
TOUCH THE BLADES, AS THEY ARE
RAZOR SHARP.
3. Lift out the top foam block.
4. The 12- and 4-cup work bowls (G), large/small
pushers (H), and dough blade (I) are in the
middle foam block. Remove them next.
5. Lift out the middle foam block.
6. The housing base (J) is at the bottom of the
box. Assemble the work bowls on the base
by placing them over the shaft and using the
handle to turn the work
bowl
counterclockwise
to lock it, then remove the
housing base (J) from the bottom of the box.
7. Place the food processor on the countertop
or table. Read the Assembly and Operating
Instructions (pages 8–10) thoroughly before
using the machine.
8. Save the shipping cartons and plastic foam
blocks. You will find them very useful if you
need to repack the processor for moving or
other shipment.
