Solution
Food Processing
The ingredients should be cut evenly into ½- to 1-inch pieces before processing.
Process in batches to avoid overloading.
Place evenly cut food, cut side down, into the feed tube.
Apply even pressure on the pusher.
Feed tube should be packed full for best results.
It is normal for small pieces to remain; cut remaining bits by hand and add to
processed ingredients.
Cheese should be processed immediately after being removed from the
refrigerator. Soft cheese like mozzarella must be placed in the freezer for 30
minutes prior to processing to ensure it is firm enough for shredding.
Dough Kneading
Amount of dough may exceed maximum capacity of your food processor. Remove
half and process in two batches.
Dough may be too wet (see number 8). If motor speeds up, continue processing.
If not, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the motor speeds up. Process
until dough cleans the sides of the work bowl.
stream, or through the drizzle hole in the pusher, allowing the dry ingredients to
bottom of the work bowl.
Excessively sticky dough can cause blade to rise. Carefully reinsert blade and
immediately add 2 tablespoons of flour through feed tube while machine is running.

Technical
There is a safety interlock to prevent the motor from starting if it is not properly
assembled. Make sure the work bowl and work bowl cover are securely locked
into position.
If the motor still will not start, check the power cord and outlet.
The cover may have become unlocked; check to make sure it is securely in
position.
A safety protector in the motor prevents the motor from overheating, which
is caused by excessive strain. Press the Off control button and wait 20 to 30
minutes to allow the food processor to cool off before resuming.
motor to work harder. Simply reposition the food in the feed tube and try again.
The maximum load capacity may have been exceeded. Remove some of the
ingredients and continue processing.
Make sure the rubber feet at the bottom of the unit are clean and dry. Also make
sure that the maximum load capacity is not being exceeded.
