If the chopper labours, remove some
o
f the mixture and continue
p
rocessing in several batches,
otherwise you may strain the motor.

Remember that chopping hard foods
such as coffee beans, spices,
chocolate or ice will wear the knife
blades faster.

Beware of over processing some
ingredients. Stop and check the
consistency frequently.

Various spices such as cloves, dill
and cumin seeds can have an
adverse effect on the plastic of your
food chopper.

To ensure even processing, stop and
scrape down any food from the side

The best results are obtained by
chopping small quantities at one

Cut larger pieces of food into 1-2cm
pieces. A large load or large pieces
may cause uneven results.

Before chopping nuts, herbs,
breadcrumbs etc, ensure that both
