1. Place the food chopper on a clean,
dry, level surface.
2. Line up the locking tabs on the food
chopping bowl with the locking slots
on the main unit. Turn the chopping
bowl clockwise until the chopping
bowl locks in place. (Fig. 1)
CAUTION
: Make sure that the
unit is unplugged from the
power source before inserting or
removing the chopping blade
and before cleaning.
4. Place the food that
you want to process
into the chopping
bowl and place
the chopping
bowl lid on the
bowl. Make sure
that the extended
locking tab on the
lid is placed on the
same side as the base slot. (Fig.3)
Turn the lid clockwise to make sure
that it is locked in place.
Note:
Do not overload the food chopping
bowl. Overloading causes
inconsistent results and it strains the
motor. Larger amounts should be
processing in batches.
3. Insert the main chopping blade over
the blade support of the chopping
bowl. Then insert the double blade
over the main blade. (Fig. 2) Be
careful not to hold by the blades as
the blades are very sharp.
