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
the PULSE button until
you achieve the desired
texture. Onions and other
food with a high water
content will quickly end
up as a purée unless
examined through the
work bowl after each
pulse to make sure they
are not overprocessed.
Try chopping other food,
like meat for hamburger
or sausage. Then make
mayonnaise, pastry or
bread, as described in
the following sections. To
obtain consistent results:
Be sure all the pieces you
add to the bowl are about
the same size.
Be sure the amount you
process is no larger than
recommended on the
inside cover of this booklet.
