Hints & Tips for Chopping Blades
•
Use both chopping blades for meats, fish, vegetables, cheese, etc. and have the
speed level set to "Max".
•
For finer chopping, increase the length of time you process. DO NOT exceed
processing times of more than 20 seconds per processing interval.
•
For coarser chopping, use the "PULSE" button for a few seconds and monitor food
texture.
•
Pre-cut larger pieces to make them fit into the feeder tube. When chopping hard
foods (e.g. meat, cheese) cut into 1-inch (2.4 cm) cubes.

Hints & Tips for Blades
•
For shredding, place food horizontally into the feeder tube.
•
For slicing, place the food vertically.
•
If grating potatoes or apples, add 1 tsp of lemon juice to prevent them from turning
black. Potatoes can be sliced using the thin slicing blade for chips or use the large
french fry blade if making french fries.
