USING THE MANDOLINE
4. Stab the food to be sliced onto the spikes
of the
Food Pusher (Figure K).
ALWAYS use the Food Pusher! NEVER
use your fingers, hands or other objects
to push the food on the
Slicer! The Food
Pusher is designed so that it will not touch
the
Blades as you slide it up and down the
face of the
Slicer.
NOTE: A small flat edge may need to be
sliced on the top of the food so there is a
stable area for the
Food Pusher to hold
on to.
5. Hold onto the
Removable Handle on
the
Mixing Container and using the Food
Pusher with the food attached, slide the
Food Pusher downward and forward to slice
(Figure L).
6. Maintain constant pressure so that the
spikes of the
Food Pusher continue to hold
the vegetable/fruit.
