ASSEMBLING THE UNIT

Bowl Locking Tabs to the Locking Slots.
2. Turn clockwise until the Bowl locks. (A)
3. Slide the Knife Blade down over the shaft. Be careful not to touch the Blade as
it is extremely sharp.
4. Place the Cover on the Bowl, with the Extended Tab on the same side as the
Base Slot. Turn the Cover into the Base Slot as far as it will go. The Cover
Handle will line up with the Pulse/On Switch. (B)
NOTE: For your protection, this unit has a Cover Locking System. The unit
will not operate unless the Extended Tab is correctly located inside the Base
Slot. Do not attempt to operate the unit without locking the Cover in place.
