Disc Operation
1. Plug in the housing base
and place the work bowl
on top, with the work
bowl handle just to the
left of center. Turn the
work bowl counterclock-
wise to lock it onto the
housing base.
2. Choose desired disc
and place underside-up
on tabletop. Pick up
detachable disc stem
and align it with the
raised plastic crescent
on the underside of the
disc. The raised ‘lock’
indicator on the left cor-
ner of the stem should
be to the left of the
mounting plate on disc.
3. Turn the stem to the
right, so the locking
tabs are covered by
the metal supports
and a ‘click’ locks
the stem in place.
4. With the stem facing
down, place the
assembly over the
center hub. It should fit
snugly and rest on the
bottom of the work bowl.
5. Place work bowl cover
onto work bowl, with
the handle area just to
the left of center. Turn
counterclockwise to
lock onto work bowl.
6. Align pusher with the
feed tube opening on
the work bowl cover and
slide the activating rod
down to the bottom.
7. Use the cord wrap
on the housing base
underside to add or
remove cord.
8. You are now ready to
operate the machine.

OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS:
Try chopping some practice
foods such as a zucchini or
potato before you process
food to eat. First, cut the
ingredients into 1-inch
pieces of even size
and length.
• Place the work bowl over
the center stem, with the
handle area just to the
left of center. Turn
counterclockwise to
lock in place.
• Insert the metal chopping
blade and put ingredient
pieces in the work bowl.
Put on the cover and turn
counterclockwise to lock
onto work bowl. Align the
pusher and the pusher’s
activating rod with the
corresponding openings
on the feed tube, and
push all the way down.
• Press and release the
PULSE button two or
three times. Each time the
blade stops, let the pieces
drop to the bottom of the
bowl before you pulse
again. This puts them in
the path of the blade each
time the motor starts.
• Using the pulse/chopping
technique, you get an
even chop without
overprocessing. Check
the texture frequently
by looking through the
cover. If you want a finer
chop, press and release
