Using The Food Processor; Controls - Black & Decker FP1300 Series Use And Care Book Manual

CONTROLS

On — When this button is pressed, the unit will run continuously until the Off button is pressed.
Use the On position for longer processing tasks, such as making dressings, smooth
spreads, peanut butter, dips, etc.
Off — The Processor should always be left in the Off position when the unit is not in use.
Pulse — The Pulse position must be pressed and held for the unit to operate. When it is
released, the unit will stop. Use Pulse for short processing tasks, such as chopping
nuts, raw meats, or vegetables. This lets you check processed results and control the
fineness.
IMPORTANT: For your protection this unit has an Interlock System. The processor won't operate
unless the tab on the Cover is correctly locked into the slot on the Base. Be sure the Cover is
turned fully into the slot toward LOCK until you hear it click into place. Do not attempt to operate
the unit without the Cover being correctly in place. Be sure the Bowl is locked into the Base and
the Base is on a flat, dry, clean surface before you begin processing.
How To Slice Or Shred
1. Place the Bowl over the Center Post in the Base
with the handle at the left. Turn the bowl towards
the Base until it drops down into place. Snap the
Bowl in towards the Base and be sure the Locking
Tab locks into place (A).
2. To process into a serving/mixing bowl using the
Continuous Flow Food Chute (FP1400 Only), place
the Disc Stem onto the Center Post in the Bowl
and slip the Discharge Disc onto the Stem.
NOTE: Be sure you have the appropriate side of
the Discharge Disc up for leafy or other
vegetables. The Tabs on the Disc should be up for
leafy vegetables. Grasp the Slice/Shred Disc by
the Hub or very carefully by its edge with the
desired side (Slice or Shred) up and push it down onto the Disc Stem over the Discharge Disc.
Remember to remove the Shield from the Food Chute/Cover. To process directly into the
Bowl, follow the same procedure only do not use the Discharge Disc and be sure the Shield is
pushed down into place. Clip the Food Fingers onto the Food Chute to keep food from tilting and
help get even slices.
For models without the Continuous Flow Food Chute (FP1300), place the Disc Stem onto
the Center Post in the Bowl, then carefully grasp the Slice/Shred Disc by its Hub with the
desired side (Slice or Shred) up and push it down onto the Disc Stem.
3. Place the Food Chute/Cover onto the Bowl so that its Tab is facing the Base. Twist the Food
Chute/Cover in toward the Base to LOCK until you hear it click into place.
4. Plug the cord into an electrical outlet.
5. Use the Food Guide to help you prepare food for slice/shred processing. Fill the Food Chute
with food and position the Pusher over the food.
6. Select the Hi or Lo Speed, then press down lightly but firmly on the Food Pusher while
pressing the desired Pulse or On Control.
NOTE: Let the Processor do the work. Heavy pressure will not speed up operation. Do not use
the Processor continuously for more than 3 minutes at a time.
7. After processing food, press the control to Off or release the Pulse Control. Allow the Disc to
Cover
