PREPARING THE PRODUCT FOR PROCESSING
Cut products such as meat and cheese into equal pieces of approximately 1" cubes for easy
processing.
For bread crumbs or other dry products, place product into the bowl first, turn the machine on, then add
liquid ingredients.
For pureeing products, be sure to move the Scraper Handle back and forth to reintroduce partially cut
product into the cutting zone.
USING THE BOWL SCRAPER DURING PROCESSING
During processing, move the Scraper Handle back and forth to reintroduce partially cut product that
is clinging to the sides of the bowl back into the cutting area. The Bowl Scraper can also be used during
processing to stir or mix liquid products. The Bowl Scraper has four legs and four lid wipers — this
allows a 90° motion to fully wipe the entire Bowl and lid.
USE OF THE FEED TUBE
The Bowl Cover is equipped with a Lid Plug which can be pulled open for adding ingredients. When
replacing the Lid Plug, be sure to turn the Lid Plug so the underneath side of the plug is flat with the
underneath side of the Bowl Cover. With the Lid Plug in closed position, the Scraper Handle should
move back and forth over it.
