knife, a ripple cut knife, a blade
lock, a blade guide which doubles as a finger shield, and
a Professional Cutting Tips & Tricks DVD.
In addition, the cutting center includes
two cutting surfaces, the removable
white cutting board and the surface of
the cutting board base. You may cut
on both surfaces using your regular
kitchen knives, but you should always
use the white cutting board with the
LeverEdge
knife and the ripple cut
knife.
Each cutting surface has a cutting zone
which is a triangular area defined by
two lines (Fig. A). Caution: Knives
are very sharp; to avoid injury al-
ways use extra caution when fingers
are within or near the cutting zone.
Prior to using the Presto
cutting center, become familiar with
the various parts of the unit (Fig. A),
read the instructions carefully, and
view the Professional Cutting Tips
DVD. Before initial use, wash all parts
in warm, sudsy water; rinse and dry.
