Instructions for Use
The two convex surfaces on the bottom of the food holder (see Figure 2) provide a secure hold for longer pie-
ces of food such as carrots, courgettes and cucumbers.

Use of
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, sim-
ply leave the Handy Hopper on the Nicer Slicer 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
fi tted, it can no longer be moved over the feed plate and cannot be removed. To insert or remove, the
thickness controller must fi rst 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 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 stain-
less steel V blade do not damage one another.
The food that is being held in place pushes the stamp out against the upper
surface of the food holder. During cutting, the palm of the hand or fi ngers
push the stamp down and thus ensure that the ingredient is being pushed
through automatically until it has been processed almost entirely.
