ASSEMBLING THE FOOD PROCESSOR ATTACHMENT
Important: Always make sure the base of the
appliance is unplugged and placed on a flat, level
surface before starting to assemble.
Important: For your protection this appliance
has an interlock system. The appliance will not
operate as a food processor unless the cover is
properly locked in place.
1. Lower workbowl over center shaft/workbowl's
base assembly and rotate bowl clockwise to
lock the two parts together.
2. Place either the chopping blade or the slicing/
shredding disc onto center shaft.
3. Place cover on work bowl with the latch
closest to the feed chute counter clockwise
from the latch to the right of the workbowl's
handle. Line up the pin on the lid with the pin
on the center shaft.
4. Gently press down the lid to depress the lower pin and rotate the cover
clockwise until cover locks into place.
5. Place workbowl onto base and twist clockwise to lock.

• Organize processing tasks to avoid multiple cleanups of the bowl; process
dry before wet.
• Do not process foods that are so frozen or hard that the tip of a knife
cannot be inserted into the food.
• If a piece of hard food, such as a carrot, becomes wedged or stuck on
the blade, stop the appliance and unplug, then remove the blade. Gently
remove food from the blade.
• Meat and cheese should be well chilled before slicing or shredding.
• Insert a funnel into the feed chute when adding ingredients such as, oil,
flour and sugar.
• Do not use the food processor attachment to:
- Grind coffee beans, bones, grains or hard spices
- Slice or chop warm meat

• The chopping blade works very quickly. Watch carefully to avoid over-
processing foods.
• For best results, process foods that are about the same size.
• The appliance will be more efficient if workbowl filled no more than 1/2
to 2/3 full.
• Processing nuts or other hard foods may scratch the surface finish on the
inside of the workbowl.
• Never walk away from the appliance while it is on.
• Use hot, but never boiling liquids.
• The PULSE feature offers the best control.

• Before slicing round fruits and vegetables with the disc, cut a thin slice
from the bottom so food will be more stable. Place food cut side down in
the feed chute.
• Always remove seeds, core and pits before processing
• Select foods that are firm and not over ripe.
• When slicing thinner vegetables cut them just short of the length of the
feed chute; stand them vertically in the feed chute so they are solidly
packed and cannot turn or tilt.
• Soft and semi hard cheeses should be well chilled before shredding.
• Do not let the food accumulate too high (over 2/3 full); stop and empty
the workbowl.
