Safety Instructions
Remember that the blades are VERY SHARP; be careful when handling and operating the equipment to keep hands
away from the cutting edges.
Operation of Easy Chopper 3
1.
Always check the equipment before each use to ensure that it is clean & free of debris. Also inspect the blades to ensure
there are no broken, nicked, or dulled blades and if found, replace the blade assembly before using the equipment again.
2.
Place the chopper on a firm, clean, and flat work surface.
3.
Be sure that the cleaning gasket is in place before using. Also, ensure that the color of the push block matches the colored
indicator on the blade assembly to confirm they are a matching set.
4.
Prepare the produce to be cut (Chopped, Sliced, or Wedged).
5.
Lift HANDLE and place the produce on the blades with the flat side down.
6.
Remove hand/fingers from the cutting area, use free hand to grasp the leg of the frame, and with a strong, quick thrust,
bring the PUSH BLOCK down to force the produce through the BLADES. Lift and repeat.
7.
Clean the machine after prep work is completed using cleaning instructions below.
Caution
: Do not attempt to chop produce larger than the opening in the BLADE HOLDER (4-1/4” x 4-1/4”).
Note:
Additional blade and PUSH BLOCK sets can be purchased separately. Be sure to always use a PUSH BLOCK and blade set
that are compatible or damage to the equipment will result. To check for compatibility, compare the color of the push block to the
colored indicator on the blade assembly. The color of the cleaning gasket should match the push block and blade assembly as
well.
To Clean
1.
Remove the PUSHER assembly off the GUIDE RODS. Using the tabs on the cleaning gasket, pull the cleaning gasket from
the push block to remove debris from the slots.
2.
Remove the blade assembly from the locating pins.
3.
Thoroughly wash the PUSHER & BLADE assemblies, and cleaning gasket using warm water and a mild detergent.
CAUTION:
Do not wipe across the sharp side of the blades, or use abrasive pads on the blades. Wiping across the sharp
side of the blades in any form may cause injury and will dull the blades.
4.
To aid cleaning, spray pressurized water across the blade assembly from the dull side to force out debris. Pressurized water
can also be sprayed on the push block to force out remaining debris.
5.
Allow all pieces to air dry.
6.
Once all pieces are dry, reassemble the components to the Chopper. It is suggested that mineral oil is applied to the guide
rods every time the equipment is cleaned.
Chopping Tips
Cut produce before chopping and place a cut surface against the BLADES. Onions and tomatoes dice best if cut from top to
bottom. They may be cut in half, or if smaller dices are desired, they can be cut several times in this direction.
To Lubricate
When needed, lubricate the GUIDE RODS with Mineral Oil, Food Grade Lubricant, or rub them with Paraffin.
DO NOT LUBRICATE WITH COOKING OIL – IT GETS STICKY!
