SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

USING THE SPIRALIZER ATTACHMENT

SPIRALIZER ATTACHMENT BLADE CHART

NOTE: Cut the ends off food items to ensure that the food will properly fit on the Spiralizer, and to create flat surfaces for best spiralizing, slicing, and coring results.

Food should be 1.5-3.75 inches (3.81-9.5 cm) in diameter, and no longer than 5.5 inches (14 cm). This step also ensures proper placement onto the fruit and vegetable skewer.

When beginning to cut, start at the "Stir" speed, then adjust to the recommended speed for your blade listed in the chart.

ATTACHING THE SPIRALIZER TO THE STAND MIXER

1. For Stand Mixers with a hinged attachment hub cover: Flip up to open. For Stand Mixers with a removable attachment hub cover: Turn the attachment knob counterclockwise to remove attachment hub cover.
   
2. Insert the Spiralizer attachment shaft housing into the attachment hub, making certain that the power shaft fits into the square hub socket. Rotate the Spiralizer attachment back and forth, if necessary. The pin on the shaft housing will slip fully into the notch on the hub rim when it's in the proper position.
   
3. Tighten the attachment knob until the Spiralizer attachment is completely secured to the Stand Mixer. Visit kitchenaid.com/quickstart for detailed information on how to use your Spiralizer's different blades and features.
   

PREPARING TO PROCESS

To prepare food before spiralizing, wash food, then remove stems, cut the ends off squarely, and remove any eyes, if applicable.

1. Install fruit and vegetable skewer by slipping onto the skewer mount, and twisting counterclockwise until it clicks into place.
   
2. Place bowl or plate under the Spiralizer attachment, then affix food to the fruit and vegetable skewer.
   
   OPTIONAL: If using the peeler, install by sliding into the bottom of the blade carrier until it clicks into place.
   
3. Install the desired blade.
   
4. Pull the release lever, then push the blade carrier towards the Stand Mixer to align the blade core with the center of the food.
   
5. Press blade core into food for added stability before operating the Stand Mixer.
   
   When finished, remove the blade before removing your food item.
