Getting Acquainted; How To Use - Presto Professional SaladShooter Instructions Manual

Important Cord and Plug Information
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit
into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
Connect the power supply cord to a 120VAC electrical outlet only.

various parts of the unit and read the instructions carefully.
Before initial use, and after each subsequent use, wash all parts except the motorized base in warm, sudsy water. Wipe the motorized
base with a damp cloth to clean. Never immerse the motorized base in water or any other liquid.

How To Use

1. Select one of the cones and insert it narrow end first into the slicing-shredding chute (Fig. A).
Then attach the twist-lock ring by turning it clockwise until it locks into place (Fig. B). The metal
portions of the slicing and shredding cones are sharp. Handle with care.
2. Attach the food chamber assembly to the motorized base by inserting the portion containing the
driving end of the slicing or shredding cone into the socket of the motorized base (Fig. C). Then
rotate the food chamber assembly clockwise until it is upright and centered with the handle. To
be sure the food chamber assembly is attached properly, check to see that the interlock bracket
is positioned in the bracket slot (Fig. D).
Proper assembly is important. The unit is designed with safety in mind. Thus, the food chamber
assembly cannot be removed from the motorized base unless the switch is in the OFF position.
Likewise, the motor will not turn on unless the food chamber assembly is attached to the unit,
and the motor automatically stops if an incorrectly attached assembly slips off the motorized base
during operation. Should the motor stop in the middle of operation, turn the switch to the OFF
position. Reassemble, making sure the interlock bracket on the bottom of the slicing-shredding
chute is positioned in the bracket slot on the motorized base before using the unit again.
3. The adjustable food guide adapts to small or large loads. For small loads, you will need to separate
the two-piece food guide. With the food guide placed in the food chamber, pull the lock tab on
