OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS:
Try chopping some practice
foods, such as a zucchini
or potato, before you
process food to eat. First,
cut the ingredients into
1-inch pieces.
• Place the work bowl over
the center stem and turn
counterclockwise to
lock in place.
• Insert the metal chopping
blade and put ingredient
pieces in the work bowl.
Put on the cover and turn
counterclockwise to lock
onto work bowl. Align the
pusher and the pusher’s
activating rod with the
corresponding openings
on the feed tube, and
push all the way down.
Press and release the
PULSE button two or three
times. Each time the blade
stops, let the pieces drop
to the bottom of the bowl
before you pulse again.
This puts them in the path
of the blade each time the
motor starts.
• Using the pulse/chopping
technique, you get an
even chop without
overprocessing. Check
the texture frequently
by looking through the
cover. If you want a finer
chop, press and release
the PULSE button until
you achieve the desired
texture. Onions and other
food with a high water
content will quickly end
up as a purée, unless
examined through the
work bowl after each
pulse to make sure they
are not overprocessed.
Try chopping other food
like meat for hamburger
or sausage. Then make
mayonnaise, pastry or
bread, as described in
the following sections. To
obtain consistent results:
Be sure all the pieces you
add to the bowl are about
the same size.
Be sure the amount you
process is no larger than
recommended on the
inside cover of this booklet.
Before you do anything,
wait for the blade to stop
spinning. Once it does,
remove the pusher assem-
bly. Then turn the cover
clockwise to unlock and
remove by lifting it off.
Never try to remove the
pusher, lid and work bowl
together; as a safety
feature, the pusher
assembly must be removed
before the lid and work
bowl can be unlocked.
They can then both be
unlocked at the same time.
Remove the bowl from the
base of the machine before
removing the blade. This
creates a seal to prevent
food from leaking. Turn the
bowl clockwise to unlock
from the base, and lift
straight up to remove.
To prevent the blade from
falling from the work
bowl onto your hand
when emptying the work
bowl, use one of the fol-
lowing methods.
Be sure your hands
are dry.
