Robot Coupe R302V Operation Manual page 6

The continuous feed lead serves several functions.
Primarily, the lead protects the operator from the cut-
ting plate. When the lead is fully locked in place, the
plate is covered and the unit will be ready for opera-
tion.
The continuous feed lead has two feed openings,
one large and one small, with matching
pushers. The food is inserted in the chosen
opening by removing the pusher with one hand and
then depositing the food into the chute with the
other hand. The pusher should then be used to
"push" the food through the opening.
CAUTION: Keep hands out of the feed
openings.
The Food Processor is now assembled and ready to
perform its desired function. Before continuing the
operation-You should completely read the instructions
contained in the rest of this manual.
DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS: Simply reverse
the steps outlined in the assembly instructions with
the power cord unplugged from its wall socket.
III. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: This machine is equipped with manual reset
thermal overload protection. If the machine is over-
loaded or run too long under heavy load conditions,
the overload will trip. If this occurs, first remove the
bowl and reduce the amount of food being processed.
The reset button is located on the bottom right corner
of the motor base. Press the button in to reset the
overload protector.
A. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF THE
CUTTER BOWL
The cutter bowl attachment is used for grinding, pu-
reeing, blending, mixing, of ingredients. With the
power switch off and the bowl and blade secured in
place (per previous instructions) you are now ready
to add product to the bowl. There are two ways to
run your machine. Chopping using a quick start/stop
action or running continuously for a fine chop or pu-
ree. Most operations start by using the medium high
speed (1725 RPM). Use this speed for chopping and
general mixing requirements. Medium high is also
used to initially reduce meats and vegetables prior to
turning the machine to high speed. Some dough ap-
plications, like pie crust work best around 1100 RPM.
1. TO CHOP
To achieve a chopped consistency for vegetables,
meats, cheese, etc., fill the bowl 2/3 to 3/4 full with
portions no larger than 1 to 2 inch square. Start the
machine allowing the machine to come up to speed
then quickly press the stop switch. Continue this pro-
cess until the desired consistency is reached. If the
motor stalls, reduce the amount of product in the bowl.
2. TO PUREE OR FINE CHOP: For a fine
puree , emulsification or fine chop fill the bowl 2/3 to
3/4 full with chunks no larger than 1 to 2 inches square.
With the speed set at medium high, turn the machine
on and allow to run a short time until the product is
finely chopped, then increase to high speed to finish.
High speed is only used to finish a product after it has
been reduced at a lower speed. Some purees may
require the addition of a liquid to obtain the correct
consistency.
3. TO CHOP HARD CHEESE: Place uni-
form 1" to 1 1/2" cubes of chilled cheese up to 1 1/2
pounds into the bowl and pulse the machine. For
powdered cheese pulse the motor until the cheese is
about pea size then allow the motor to run continu-
ously until you have a fine powder.
