Be very careful, especially of your hands,
with sharp knife blades and moving parts.

Never put your hands or fingers into the
bowl or in the feeder tube on the lid.
Before cleaning the machine, always
switch it off by moving the knob into the
"O" position and then removing the power
plug from the wall socket or alternatively
switch off the isolating switch.
Only a qualified service mechanic may
repair the machine and open the machine
housing.
These appliances are not to be operated by
children or persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or persons
lacking experience of such appliances,
unless they are given adequate instruction
or supervision.
UNPACKING

The machine supplier should be notified of any
shortcomings within eight days.
INSTALLATION
Remove the knife from the bowl before instal-
lation.
Connect the machine to a mains electricity
supply with specification in accordance with
the details on the data plate on the back of
the machine base.
Check that the shaft rotates anti-clockwise.
Check that the shaft stops rotating 4 seconds
after the safety arm has been turned away
from the centre of the lid.
Check that the machine does not start when
the bowl and lid have been removed but the
safety arm is over the shaft in the centre of
the machine.
If the machine does not perform correctly,
call in a qualified service mechanic to remedy
the fault before taking the machine back into
operation.
HALLDE • User Instructions
ALWAYS CHECK BEFORE USE
That with the bowl, lid and knife fitted, the axle/
shaft stops rotating within 4 seconds after the
safety arm has been turned away from the
centre of the lid. Test this at maximum speed.
That the machine cannot be started with the
bowl, knife and lid removed and with the
safety lever over the shaft in the centre of the
machine.
Remove the plug from the power supply socket
or open the isolating switch, and then check
that the electric cable is in good condition and
is not cracked on the outside.
If the electric cable is damaged or cracked,
or if any of the above safety functions does
not perform as intended, call in a qualified
electrician to remedy the fault before taking
the machine back into operation.
That all visible screws and bolts are securely
tightened.
That the knives are in good condition and
sharp.

USERS
Restaurants, shop kitchens, diet kitchens,

CAPACITY
The amount and size of the pieces that can be
processed at one time, and the length of time
the processing takes, depend on the consis-
tency of the foods and on the result desired.
For a good and even result with firm foods such
as meat, cheese, they should first be separated
into pieces of roughly equal size and no larger
than about 4x4x4 cm.
The maximum recommended quantities that
the machine can process at one time are shown
in the list below.
• Meat: 1.3 kg
• Fish: 1.3 kg
• Aromatic butter: 1.3 kg
• Parsley: 1 litre
THE SCRAPER
Always have the scraper fitted during all types
of processing since the four scraper blades
slow down the rotation of the food in the bowl
and guide the food toward the centre/cutting
zone of the bowl.
By turning the handle of the scraper back
and forth, the walls of the bowl can easily be
scraped and the food returned to the cutting
zone while the machine is operating.
ASSEMBLING
When assembling the machine, start by moving
the safety arm towards the rear as far as it
will go.
Place the bowl on the machine so that its
guide pin drops into the slots in the top of the
machine.
Fit the knife to the shaft and press it down all
the way.
Place the scraper in the bowl, with its cover
at "6 o'clock".
Place the lid on the bowl so that the arrow on
the edge of the lid points towards the scraper
handle, and press the lid down so that the
scraper and lid engage.
Lift the safety arm, at the same time turning it
towards the centre of the lid.
DISMANTLING
Start by lifting the safety arm slightly and
turning it towards the rear of the machine until
it is clear of the bowl. Then remove the bowl.
Always leave the knife in place when removing
the bowl, to prevent the bowl contents from
running out through the tube in the centre of
the bowl.
USING THE SPEED CONTROL
When the control lever is in position "O", the
machine is switched off.
In position "I", the machine will run conti-
nuously, and in position "II" (VCM-42), the
machine will run continuously at high speed.
In the "PULSE" position, the machine will run
as long as the lever is held in this position.
The PULSE setting is used for short cycles in
which accurate results are needed.
CLEANING
Read all of the instructions before you begin
to clean the machine.
BEFORE CLEANING: Always switch off the
machine and remove the power supply plug
from the socket or, if the machine does not
have a plug, open the isolating switch. Remove
all the removable parts that are to be cleaned.
REMOVABLE PARTS: All removable parts
are machine washable. Always use hand
dishwashing liquid when washing parts manu-
ally. Be very careful of the sharp knives in the
knife head!
MACHINE: Wipe the machine with a damp
cloth and then wipe it dry.
