to use your food chopper The knife blade unit comes in 2 parts, a lower and an upper blade.

For coarser chopping use the lower blade on its own.

For finer chopping or pureeing use both blades together. This will also give a faster result. To use both blades fit the upper blade onto the lower blade and turn anti-clockwise to locate in place . Take care as the blades are sharp. Note: After processing food, the upper blade may disengage from the lower blade. This is normal as the blade assembly is designed to be loose fitting to ease separation after use. 1 Fit the bowl onto the power unit, then turn clockwise to lock into place . 2 Fit the blade assembly into the bowl.

Always fit the bowl and blade assembly onto the food chopper before adding ingredients. 3 Cut the food into suitably sized pieces and place in the bowl. Larger pieces of food should be cut into approximately 1 to 2 cm pieces. 4 Fit the lid and turn clockwise to lock into place . 5 Connect to the power supply and press down on the speed selector to select the desired speed .

Press the speed selector lightly to obtain speed 1.

Press the speed selector firmly to obtain speed 2.

Alternatively the speed selector may be pressed down for short periods of time to produce a pulsing action. This can be used to avoid over processing food. 6 Operate the food chopper until the desired result is achieved. 7 Reverse the above procedure to dismantle the unit.

If the chopper labours, remove some of the mixture and continue processing in several batches, otherwise you may strain the motor.

Remember that chopping hard foods such as coffee beans, spices, chocolate or ice will wear the knife blades faster.

Beware of over processing some ingredients. Stop and check the consistency frequently.

Various spices such as cloves, dill and cumin seeds can have an adverse effect on the plastic of your food chopper.

To ensure even processing, stop and scrape down any food from the side of the bowl with the plastic spatula supplied.

The best results are obtained by chopping small quantities at one time.

Cut larger pieces of food into 1-2cm pieces. A large load or large pieces may cause uneven results.

Before chopping nuts, herbs, breadcrumbs etc, ensure that both the food and the blade, bowl and cover are thoroughly dry. care and cleaning
