Operation
Installation
Before operating, clean the machine carefully, following the instructions in the MAINTENANCE section.
Do not overload the bowl; the mixture should not rise above the bowl’s rim. Do not rest mixture containers on
the edge of the bowl or on the safety guard as this could cause accidents or mechanical damage. Use extreme
caution when adding or removing the mixture; do not put your hands near the knives or reach into the bowl.
If necessary, use ice chips to lower the temperature of the mixture. Do not use cubes or blocks of ice as these
could damage the knife edge. Never reach into the bowl with your hands or arms while the cutter/chopper is
running. Never put your hands under the stainless steel lid. Eliminate any possibility of having your hands,
clothing or other personal effects trapped by or dragged under either of the lids or into the machine. This
machine is not designed to withstand permanent, uninterrupted use, but rather to run intermittently with pauses
to allow for the dissipation of built-up heat, the amount of which will vary depending on the consistency of the
mixture.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR 2-SPEED ELECTRIC CUTTERS
Start with the machine totally off, that is, with both the main safety switch and the speed control knob in the
“0” (stop) position. Close the two lids one after the other (steel, then plastic). Be careful not to trap your hand
under either lid in this process. Turn the main safety switch to the “I” (on) position. The digital thermometer
display will light up. Turn the speed control knob to position “1” (low). The knives and the bowl will begin to turn.
The speed control knob has three positions: “0” (stop), “1” (slow), and “2” (fast). These can be selected as
needed at any given moment. To stop the machine completely, turn the speed control knob to the “0” (stop)
position. The knives and bowl will stop moving. Do not stop the machine using the main safety switch as this
should only be used with the speed control knob in the “0” (stop) position. Wait until the bowl and knives have
stopped completely before opening the knife lid. When finished using the machine, turn it off completely by
turning the main safety switch to the “0” position.
and activate the main switch. The thermometer display on the switchboard should light up. Make sure that
the plug is appropriate for use with this type of machine. The machine is now ready to use.
IMPORTANT
Verify the proper turning direction of the knives and the bowl as follows: push the I-Start button. The machine
will begin to work and the bowl will start to turn counterclockwise. If the bowl turns in a clockwise direction, stop
the machine immediately and change 2 of the 3 phases at the power source/plug.
