TIPS FOR PROCESSING FOOD Preparing the Food Size Always cut large pieces of food into smaller pieces of even size – about 1⁄2 inch (1.25 cm) to a side or as specified under Operating Techniques on page 5/6. If you don't start with pieces that are small and uniform, you will not get an even chop. Quantity Do not overload the work bowl. Overloading causes inconsistent results and it strains the motor. Use the quantities given in the recipe section as a guide.
TO REMOVE PREP BOWL 1. Turn the work bowl cover clockwise and remove. 2. Turn the work bowl clockwise to unlock and lift off of the base. 3. Carefully remove the blade by lifting it up from the hub. CLEANING, STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl, cover, and blade immediately after each use, so that food won’t dry on them. Wash blade assembly, work bowl and cover in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry. Wash the blade carefully.
