Attachments and Accessories
Several valuable time and labor saving attachments and accessories are
available for use with Hobart mixers. These tools will extend your usage of the
mixer and enhance your operation by effi ciently producing additional consistent,
uniform products. Thoroughly clean all parts which come in contact with food
both before and after use.
9" VEGETABLE SLICER
The 9" Vegetable Slicer attachment allows you to prepare many additional foods
with your Hobart mixer. The standard knife and shaft is adjustable to provide
variation in slice thickness from a maximum of about
5
/
8
"
to wafer thin. Thicker
settings are used for slicing vegetables for salads or cole slaw, slicing potatoes
for German (cottage fries) or American fried potatoes, slicing cucumbers,
bananas, nuts, apples, etc.
The 9" VS is easily adapted for grating or shredding processes by removing the
knife and shaft and using the shaft with the wheel, called a plate holder. One
grater plate and four shredder plates (with hole sizes of
3
/
32
,
3
/
16
,
5
/

and
1
/
2
") are
used for fi ne grating or fi ne to coarse shredding. The most coarse shredder plate
(
1
/
2
") is used for slaw, cutting soup stock, salad blends or hash brown potatoes.
Experience with the unit will suggest many other products to the operator. The
medium and fi ne shredder plates are for fi ner cuts on carrots, mushrooms or
cabbage hearts for salad or quick cooking uses. Medium shredder plates are
also used for shredding processed cheese for a topping when desired. The
grater plate is used for natural hard cheeses for pizza, grating hard vegetables,
spices, and crumbling dried bread.
Many different products can be prepared with the 9" Vegetable Slicer - in kitchens,
bakeries or delicatessen operations. As a mixer attachment, the vegetable
slicer should operate at second or third speed on the HL120, HL200, HL300
and HL400, third or fourth speed on the HL600 and dedicated speeds on the
HL662 mixer.
Never use the highest speed setting when shredding cheese.
The 9" VS easily disassembles for cleaning.
