TROUBLESHOOTING

Food Processing
1. Problem: The food is unevenly processed.
Solution:
• The ingredients should be cut evenly into ½- to
1-inch pieces before processing.
• Process in batches to avoid overloading.
2. Problem: Slices are uneven or slanted.
Solution:
• Place evenly cut food, cut side down, into the
feed tube.
• Apply even pressure on the pusher.
3. Problem: Food falls over in feed tube.
Solution:
• Feed tube should be packed full for best results.
4. Problem: Some food remains on top of the disc.
Solution:
• It is normal for small pieces to remain; cut
remaining bits by hand and add to processed
ingredients.
5. Problem: Metal chopping/mixing/dough blade
cannot be removed from the stem adapter.
Solution:
• Place the blade / stem adapter assembly in a
bowl filled with warm tap water. This should help
loosen trapped food particles between the blade
and stem adapter. To see if food has loosened,
remove assembly from water by lifting from the
stem. Holding the stem, place the blade assembly
on counter top and press down on stem. This
should free the blade from the stem. If blade still
cannot removed, return to warm water and repeat
above steps.
Dough Kneading
1. Problem: Motor slows down.
Solution:
• 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.
2. Problem: Blade doesn't incorporate ingredients.
Solution:
• Always start the food processor before adding
liquid. Add liquid in a slow, steady stream, or
through the drizzle hole in the pusher, allowing
the dry ingredients to absorb it. If too much liquid
is added, wait until ingredients in the work bowl
have mixed, then add remaining liquid slowly (do
not turn off the machine). Pour liquid onto dough
as it passes under feed tube opening; do not pour
liquid directly onto bottom of the work bowl.
3. Problem: Blade rises in work bowl.
Solution:
• Excessively sticky dough can cause blade to rise.
Carefully reinsert blade and immediately add 2
tablespoons of flour through the feed tube while
the machine is running.
4. Problem: Dough doesn't clean inside of the
work bowl.
Solution:
• Amount of dough may exceed maximum capacity
of your food processor. Remove half and process
in two batches.
• Dough may be too dry (see number 7).
• Dough may be too wet (see number 8).
5. Problem: Nub of dough forms on top of blade and
does not become uniformly kneaded.
Solution:
• Stop machine, carefully remove dough, divide it
into 3 pieces and redistribute them evenly in the
work bowl.
6. Problem: Dough feels tough after kneading.
Solution:
• Divide dough into 2 or 3 pieces and redistribute
evenly in bowl. Process 10 seconds or until uni-
formly soft and pliable.
7. Problem: Dough is too dry.
Solution:
• While machine is running, add water, 1
tablespoon at a time, until dough cleans the
inside of the bowl.
8. Problem: Dough is too wet.
Solution:
• While machine is running, add flour, 1
tablespoon at a time, until dough cleans the
inside of the bowl.
Technical
1. Problem: The motor does not start.
Solution:
• 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.
