lever.
• Insert the power cord plug into a properly grounded outlet of the correct
voltage. Red LED will turn on.
• Use the “ON” ( ) switch for continuous processing, or the PULSE/OFF
(
)
lever for pulsing /on-off operation.
• Feed the items to be processed at a steady rate into the feed tube, using the
food pusher to push the food down. The same technique is used whether you

When processing, it is recommended that the machine be operated on a 50%
duty cycle, such as 5 minutes on / 5 minutes off. This can be accomplished
by processing for 5 minutes, then doing 5 minutes of food preparation.
Please remember to turn off the machine when not in use.
