• Always use the PULSE button for pulsing. Never move the
bowl and cover assembly on or off to control pulses. It is less
efcient and could damage the machine.
Turning the machine off with the OFF button
• Always switch the food processor off by pressing and releasing
the OFF button. This assures that the power is not supplied to
the motor.
• Always switch the food processor off and wait until rotation
stops before removing the cover.
• While the safety interlock switch will turn the machine off if the
bowl is rotated clockwise or the cover is removed while running,
this should not be the means of turning the machine on or off.
• As a safety precaution, always make sure the machine is off by
pressing the OFF button before pushing down the lid.
FOOD PREPARATION
• Prepare all food items to be processed by washing and peeling
as required. Remove pits, stones, and large seeds.
• Cut vegetables, meats, cheeses, etc., into sizes that will t
into either the small or large feed tube for processing with
accessory discs.
• Preparation for slicing: Produce that is long and cylindrical such
as carrots, cucumbers and celery should be cut at at both
ends. This will provide a consistent slice for all food processed.
FOOD PUSHER SELECTION
The feed tube can be used for adding ingredients while the food
processor is running. However, it is recommended that the food
pushers be left in place whenever possible to prevent splashing
and avoid unwanted additions to the batch bowl.
Small pusher
This pusher is typically used when inserting vegetables vertically
for smaller cuts. It should be used when slicing foods such as
carrots, celery, pepperoni, etc., when a consistent, at result is
desired.
