pulses.
• For coarse chopping, use short, quick pulses and monitor
food texture.
• Pre-cut larger pieces to make them fit into the Master

Advantage. When chopping hard foods (e.g. meat,
cheese) cut into 1-inch cubes.

PROBLEMS
POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS
Motor Doesn’t Start or Blades
Don’t Rotate.
Check that the bottom of motor head is clean and there is no food blocking
connection when placing on containers.
There is too much food in the pitcher.
The unit has overheated. Unplug and wait approximately 10 minutes before using again.
Make sure the splash guard is securely on pitcher.
Make sure the power head is securely placed on splash guard.
Check that the plug is securely inserted into the electrical outlet.
Check fuse or breaker. Replace fuse/reset breaker.
Food is Unevenly Chopped.
Either you are chopping too much food at one time, or the pieces are not small
enough. Try cutting the food into smaller pieces of even size and processing smaller
amounts per batch.
Food is Chopped Too Fine or is
Too Watery.
The food has been over processed. Use brief pulses or process for shorter time. Let
blades stop completely between pulses.
Food Collects On Splash
Guard/Safety Cover or On the
Sides of the pitcher.
You may be processing too much food. Turn the machine Off. When the blades stop
rotating, remove the power head and the splash guard. Remove some of the food
being processed.
You Cannot Achieve Snow
From Solid Ice.
Do not use ice that has been sitting out or has started to melt. Be sure to use short
pulses in the beginning to break up large pieces.
