USING THE FOOD PROCESSOR

When using the feed hopper attachment, bulk

product may be added to the feed hopper during

operation(Fig.21).

When using the pusher plate feed attachment, place

prepared products, such as potatoes, carrots, onion,

lettuce,cabbage,etc.,inthefeedcylinder(Fig.22).

When cutting French fries with the Julienne cutter,

place/pile the potatoes against one of the internal

guides (Fig. 22). The potatoes may be stacked

to cut several at one time. For consistent results,

stack product against the internal guide of the feed

cylinder, one pile only.

To slice round products, such as lemons and

tomatoes, position the product against the partition

wallofthefeedcylinder(Fig.22).Forbestresults,it

is advisable to remove tops and tails from products

like lemons, limes, or onions and place them in the

feed cylinder perpendicular to the desired cut.

A light pressure on the pusher plate is all that is

required to give the best cutting results.
