Sharp Blade Hazard.
Blades are sharp and can cause cuts. To avoid
injury from sharp blades, handle with caution.
Prior to first use, it is important to clean the equipment. Wash new blades
with warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly to remove the thin protective oil
film.
1. Place the equipment on a clean, flat work surface.
2. Before each use, check that the equipment is clean and the blades are
in good condition. If loose or broken blades are found, blades must be
serviced.
3. Before each use, check for proper blade alignment. Slowly set the
pusher head (D) onto the blade assembly (E). See Figure 1. They should
slide together with no obstructions. If there are obstructions, verify they
are a matching set. Rremove the obstruction.
4. Verify that the blade assembly and pusher head assembly are the
desired size.
5. Prepare the food product to be processed. For lemons, limes and some
other fruit the equipment will work better if the ends are cut off. Remove
the stem scar on tomatoes.
6. Lift the handle (B) and place the food on the blade assembly (H) (center
spike for wedge blades).
7. Remove hand from the blade assembly (H) area and place that hand on
one of the legs (F).
8. Using a strong, quick, downward thrust, force the food product through
the blade assembly.
9. Repeat this process until you have prepared enough food product for
your daily needs.
10. Clean and lubricate your equipment immediately after each use. See the
CLEANING section of this manual for more information.
