PB18 OPERATION
Make sure the BC18 is cleaned before using. See cleaning instructions at the end of
this manual.
Operating Tips:
1. All products should be clean and prepped for cutting beforehand.
2. Product should be cut so that it fits into the opening between the bowl cover
and the bowl.
3. For course cuts, allow product to only pass through the blades once.
4. For finer cuts, allow the product to pass through the blades multiple times
until consistency is met.
The stainless steel bowl (Figure 1, Item 6), locks into place with a counterclockwise
twisting motion. When the bowl is properly seated, it will activate the bowl safety
switch, which allows the unit to operate. If the bowl is not securely fastened, the
switch will not engage and the unit will not run.
Locate the BC18 Bowl Cover Latch (Figure 1, Item 4) at the rear of the cover. This
locks into place by closing the cover securely and turning the handle in a clockwise
motion. The "T" shaft activates a safety switch, which enables the unit to operate if
the bowl is securely fastened. Both safety switches must be engaged for the unit to
operate.
The bowl cover conceals the blades and is designed to insure that only the food
product being sliced comes in contact with the blades. Do not attempt to clear a
jam with hands or a foreign object reaching under the cover. This can result in
damage to the machine and or serious injury. If a jam occurs, shut the machine
off, unplug the unit from the outlet, open the cover and remove jam. Make sure you
are careful when removing the jammed product from the blade area. Blades are
sharp and can result in serious injury.

PTO OPERATION

The BC18 Bowl Cutter is equipped with a PTO (Power Take-Off) (Figure 1, Item 3)
for the additional operation of a Vegetable Slicer/Shredder or Meat Grinder. Take
the chrome cap off the front of the PTO Housing. Make sure the "square" drive PTO
Adapter is in place. This adapter connects the square shaft ends together in order
for the attachment to operate. The Square drive PTO Adapter is slid over the PTO
shaft on the BC18 and is held in place by a spring loaded ball bearing. This is similar
to a ratchet to socket connection. Loosen the thumbscrew and slide the attachment
into the housing, taking care to align the alignment pin into the hole on the face of the
PTO housing. The attachment shaft will slide into the PTO Adapter to allow the unit
to be slid into place. Once in position, tighten the thumbscrew. Be sure to read the
operations manual for the attachment being used before using the PTO feature
of the BC18.
SAFETY NOTES
Always turn the power off to the BC18 when installing any attachments to the PTO.
Cover the PTO hub with the chrome cap when not in use.
