the chopping blade
what it’s for
The chopping blade can be used to puree soft or cooked foods and chop/mince raw foods. You
can use it to make dressings, mash potatoes, make bread crumbs, chop herbs and mix/blend all
sorts of ingredients.
fitting it
The chopping blade is very sharp! Take care when handling or cleaning it.
If the blender jug is fitted on the base unit, remove it and install the safety cap.
Lower the processor bowl over the drive shaft, ensuring the symbol on the bowl is aligned
with the symbol on the processor base.
Rotate the processor bowl clockwise until the symbol on the bowl is aligned with the
symbol on the processor base.
Fit the chopping blade with its safety cover onto the large spindle.
Carefully remove the chopping blade safety cover from the chopping blade. DO NOT
HANDLE THE BLADES.
Slide the chopping blade/large spindle assembly over the drive shaft in the processor bowl.
You may need to turn the blade/spindle assembly until it drops all the way down onto the
drive shaft.
Lower the bowl lid onto the processor bowl ensuring the symbol on the top rim of the
bowl is aligned with the line on the bowl lid.
Rotate the bowl lid clockwise until the line on the bowl lid is aligned with the symbol on the
top rim of the processor bowl.
using it
For the processor to operate, the processor bowl, lid and safety cap must be correctly fitted.
Add the ingredients to the processor bowl, refit the processor bowl lid and press the Slice/Chop
button. Alternatively, press the Pulse button in short bursts to have greater control over texture
and consistency.
More ingredients can be added during processing through the feed tube in the processor bowl
lid. Remove the food pusher, add the ingredients then replace the food pusher. Don’t overfill the
processor bowl.
cleaning it
It’s best to clean your processor as soon as you have finished using it. When you have emptied the
contents of the processor bowl, refit it to the base unit and:
A
Fill the processor bowl a quarter full with warm water and add one drop of washing up liquid.
B
Refit the processor lid and press the pulse button for a few seconds.
C
Remove the bowl, lid and chopping blade assembly and rinse under clean running water.
D
Dry the processor bowl, lid and chopping blade with a soft cloth. Carefully refit the chopping
blade safety cover over the blade.
Never use any harsh abrasive cleaning products to clean your processor bowl or any other part of
your food processor.
