LEM Apple/Potato Peeler Use & Care Instructions
CAUTION! Please be careful when handling this machine - blades are exposed.

SET UP

1. Secure machine onto a clean, dry, smooth surface, such as a counter or table top,
by turning the lever on the suction base.
2. Using a screwdriver, attach crank handle with the screw provided to the handle arm.
3. Check the alignment of the 3 pronged gripper fork and the position of the corer/slicer
blade. (See diagram A&B.)
PEEL, COR E, AND SLICE
1. To release the groove clamp push down on the release switch, and pull the crank
handle all the way back.
2. Push produce securely onto the 3 pronged gripper fork.
3. Turn the crank handle until the produce comes in contact with the blade. If necessary,
change the depth at which the blade peels the produce by loosening the wing nut on the
peeler blade and adjust the gap between the blade and blade shelf lip. (See diagram C.)
NOTE: A little adjustment goes a long way.
4. To remove an apple core, release the groove clamp and firmly pull back on the
crank handle. The apple core will pop off the gripper fork.
COR E AND SLICE ONLY
Carefully pull back on peeler arm and flip the retaining latch in place to hold the peeler
arm in place. Leave corer/slicer blade in position.

PEEL ONLY

Loosen the corer/slicer blade wing nut and slide the corer/slicer blade
out of the way and retighten the wing nut.
