The two convex surfaces on the bottom of the food holder (see Figure 2) provide a secure hold for longer
pieces of food such as courgettes and cucumbers.
Tip
5.5 Use of the Handy Hopper
Figure 3:
Lid
Stamp
Runners
Squeeze the two clips on either side of the lid
together and remove the lid.
Put the ingredient on the feed plate in the
Handy Hopper (if already cut, with the cut
surface down).
Clips
Place the stamp in the centre of the food and push the lid onto the Handy
Hopper until you hear the clips lock in place. The spring inside the stamp
keeps the holding pins pressed into the food. This prevents the food from
slipping and it is pushed down automatically. To top up the ingredient,
simply leave the Handy Hopper on the Nicer Slicer smart and follow the
procedure described
below.
In the “lock” setting, the Handy Hopper cannot be inserted into the side guide. If it has already been
fitted, it can no longer be moved over the feed plate and cannot be removed. To insert or remove, the
thickness controller must first bee set to “0” (or greater).
Caution!
The runners on the Handy Hopper are fed into the side guides on both sides of the
Nicer Slicer smart from the handle. As a result, the Handy Hopper slides safely over
the stainless steel V blade and is always in the centre of it. The runners on both
sides of the Handy Hopper ensure that the holding prongs on the stamp and the
stainless steel V blade do not damage one another.
