French Fries 

Disc

French Fry 

Cut

•  Potatoes
•  Sweet Potato
•  Carrots

•  Lay ingredients horizontally in large 

feed chute to maximize length.

•  For potatoes and softer produce, 

use the large feed chute to maximize 

length; however, for best results on 

harder, fibrous produce, use the 

medium chute for more control.

Dicing kit
(8, 16mm)

Dicing

•  Raw and cooked 

vegetables and fruits

•  Use small or medium feed chutes for 

harder ingredients such as carrot or 

pumpkin. To further improve results you 

can also pre cook.

•  When dicing tomatoes, avocadoes 

firmer fruit will give a better result

•  Always use the Dicing Distributor 

assembled to the dicing gearbox. This 

will keep the area underneath the chute 

clear and prevent blockages.

Potato Peeler

Peeling

•  Raw potatoes

•  For best results, use consistent shaped 

potatoes.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Due to the harder and more fibrous nature; 

DO NOT DICE the following:

•  Cheese
•  Raw sweet potato / kumara.
•  Meat including hard deli meats.
•  Fruit and vegetables with tough skin 

such as pineapple and watermelon. 

These should be peeled first.

IMPORTANT NOTES

For optimal results, position food in the chute 

and use the pusher to push food with light 

downward force prior to starting the food 

processor.

Always use the small or medium size feed chute 

for processing hard produce like pumpkin and 

sweet potato. Feeding hard produce through 

the large feed chute could cause damage to the 

discs.

Smaller Ingredients

For long thin foods such as carrots, cucumbers, 

zucchini, etc., use the small or medium feed 

chute. This will avoid the ingredient from tipping 

over, during slicing.

Larger Ingredients

The wide feed chute is 14cm wide and can fit 

ingredients up to this size. The food should fit 

snugly so it is supported in an upright position 

in the chute, but not so tight that it could prevent 

the food from moving down the chute. Ensure 

not to overfill the chute, as the pusher will not 

activate the interlock safety catch if the chute is 

too full. Do not fill over the MAX indicator.

Pressure

When processing, never force the food down the 

chute as this can damage the discs. Apply light, 

even pressure for soft foods such as tomatoes 

and bananas. Apply medium, even pressure for 

firmer foods such as potatoes, cheese, deli meats 

and apples.

Mini Bowl

The mini processing bowl is used inside the main 

processing bowl. It is for better control when 

processing small quantities of food, or herbs. 

Use the mini-spindle with the mini bowl and then 

add the mini-blade for chopping, mixing and 

blending a variety of ingredients. Alternatively, the 

‘Adjustable Slicing’, Shredding or French Fries 

discs can be used on the mini-spindle to process 

smaller quantities into the mini bowl.

Dicing kit

Do not dice raw sweet potato / kumara. Its dry, hard 

and fibrous nature may cause damage to the bowl 

and lid due to heavy load.

Do not fill the Bowl with ingredients above the 

MAX level on the side of the Bowl.

Do not assemble the cutting disc onto the gearbox 

without the grid in place.

Always use the Dicing Distributor on the gearbox.
