MODEL KPFP850 FOOD PROCESSOR FEATURES Work Bowl Cover with Ultra Wide Mouth™ Feed Tube One of the industry’s largest feed tubes accommodates large items – like tomatoes, cucumbers, and potatoes – with a minimum of sectioning or slicing. 2-Piece Food Pusher For smaller items, remove the small pusher from the central tube in the large pusher. The small pusher and feed tube make it easy to process herbs, nuts, single carrots and celery.
Medium (4 mm) Slicing Disc Disc produces approximately 1⁄8-inch slices of most foods. Egg Whip The egg whip will quickly whip cream and egg whites for soft meringues, mousses, soufflés, and desserts. Medium (4 mm) Shredding Disc Disc produces approximately 1⁄8-inch shreds of most firm fruits, vegetables, and cheese. Die-Cast Metal Base The base features the on, off, and pulse buttons along with the power shaft, which rotates the blades and discs.
PREPARING THE FOOD PROCESSOR Before First Use Before using your food processor for the first time, wash the work bowl, work bowl cover, chef’s bowl, mini bowl, feed tube pusher, discs, and blades either by hand or in the dishwasher (see “Care and Cleaning” on page 21). Work Bowl Assembly 1. Place the food processor base on a dry, level countertop with the controls facing forward. Do not plug in the unit until it is completely assembled. 2.
6. Fit the pusher into the feed tube. 7. Plug the food processor into a 3 prong grounded outlet. NOTE: Your PRO LINE™ Series Food Processor will not operate unless the work bowl and work bowl cover are properly locked on the base, and the pusher is inserted to the maximum fill line on the feed tube. OPERATION Do not remove the work bowl from the base without first removing the work bowl cover. Damage to the work bowl may result.
PREPARING THE FOOD PROCESSOR FOR USE Slicing and Shredding Disc Assembly Mini Bowl Assembly Place the disc stem on the power shaft. Fit the disc over the metal pin on the disc stem, then rotate the disc until it falls fully onto the stem. Place the mini bowl inside the work bowl over the power shaft. Rotate the mini bowl until it falls into place. When properly seated in the work bowl, the mini bowl cannot be rotated. Fit the mini blade on the power shaft.
To remove the mini bowl after processing, lift the bowl using the two finger grips located along the top edge of the bowl. Egg Whip Assembly and Use The egg whip is designed to whip egg whites or heavy cream to create toppings or soft meringues. For the best results when whipping cream, use at least 1 cup of cream and no more than 2 cups at most. When whipping egg whites, use a minimum of 4 – smaller quantities may not whip to maximum volume.
PREPARING THE FOOD PROCESSOR 1. Place the egg-whip stem on the power shaft. Slowly turn the stem until it drops fully onto the shaft. 2. Align the L-shaped notch on the whip paddle with the small post on the stem cover, and slide the paddle onto the cover. Turn slightly to lock paddle. 3. Fit the stem cover and paddle over the egg whip stem. Push downward to engage the ridges of the stem with the gears of the paddle. 4. Fit the egg whip cap over the egg whip stem. Push downward to lock it into place. 5.
USING THE PRO LINE™ SERIES FOOD PROCESSOR WARNING Food Pusher Interlock The food pusher is part of the safety interlock system. The food processor will not run unless the pusher is inserted to the maximum fill line on the feed tube. OPERATION Rotating Blade Hazard Always use food pusher. Keep fingers out of openings. Keep away from children.
USING THE PRO LINE™ SERIES FOOD PROCESSOR Turning the Food Processor On and Off Using the Pulse Control 1. To turn on the food processor, press the On Button. The unit will run continuously and the blue indicator light will glow. The pulse control allows precise control of the duration and frequency of processing. It’s great for jobs which require a light touch. Just press and hold the Pulse Button to start processing, and release it to stop.
DISASSEMBLING THE FOOD PROCESSOR WARNING Cut Hazard 2. If using a disc, remove it before removing the bowl. Place two fingers under each side of the disc and lift it straight up. Remove the disc stem. Handle blades carefully. Failure to do so can result in cuts. OPERATION NOTE: If you have difficulty removing the pusher from the feed tube, it is likely that food particles have become lodged in the interlock system. To free the pusher, soak the work bowl cover in warm water or wash it in a dishwasher.
DISASSEMBLING THE FOOD PROCESSOR 4. Turn the work bowl to the left to unlock it from the base. Lift to remove. 20 5. The multipurpose blade can be removed from the work bowl before the contents are emptied. The blade can also be held in place as you remove food: grasp the work bowl from the bottom and place one finger through the center opening to grip the blade shaft. Then remove food from the bowl and blade with a spatula.
Cut Hazard Handle blades carefully. Failure to do so can result in cuts. 1 2 Press the Off Button and unplug the food processor before cleaning. Wipe the metal base with a warm, sudsy cloth and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads. NOTE: Do not use sharp objects to clean around the control buttons; damage may result. Use a soft brush. 4 5 Wipe cord with a warm, sudsy cloth; wipe cord clean with a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth.
TROUBLESHOOTING • If your food processor should fail to operate, check the following: – Make sure the work bowl and work bowl cover are properly locked on the base, and the food pusher is inserted to the maximum fill line on the feed tube. – See if the food processor is plugged into a grounded 3 prong outlet. If it is, unplug the food processor, then plug it into the same outlet again.
P R O L I N E™ S E R I E S AND RECIPES FOOD PROCESSING FOOD PROCESSING TIPS TIPS AND RECIPES Tips and Recipes Section Contents Using the Multipurpose Blade...........24 Using a Slicing or Shredding Disc......26 Using the Dough Blade.....................27 Using the Egg Whip ..........................28 Helpful Hints ....................................29 Recipes.............................................
FOOD PROCESSING TIPS Using the Multipurpose Blade To chop fresh fruits or vegetables: Peel, core, and/or remove seeds. Cut food in 1 to 11⁄2-inch pieces. Process food to desired size, using short pulses, 1 to 2 seconds each time. Scrape sides of bowl if necessary. To puree cooked fruits and vegetables (except potatoes): Add 1⁄4 cup liquid from recipe per cup of food. Process food, using short pulses, until finely chopped. Then process continuously until desired texture is achieved.
To mince garlic, or to chop fresh herbs or small quantities of vegetables: With processor running, add food through the small feed tube. Process until chopped. For best results, make sure work bowl and ingredients are very dry before chopping garlic or fresh herbs. To grate hard cheeses, such as Parmesan and Romano: Never attempt to process cheese that cannot be pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. You can use the multipurpose blade to grate hard cheeses. Cut cheese in 1-inch pieces. Place in work bowl.
FOOD PROCESSING TIPS Using a Slicing or a Shredding Disc NOTE: When cutting and packing food items in the Ultra Wide Mouth™ feed tube, do not exceed the maximum fill line; this will permit the pusher to engage the interlock and the unit to operate. To slice or shred fruits or vegetables that are long and relatively small in diameter, such as celery, carrots, and bananas: Cut food to fit feed tube vertically or horizontally, and pack feed tube securely to keep food properly positioned.
To shred spinach and other leaves: Stack leaves. Roll up stacked leaves and stand the rolls vertically in the feed tube. Process, applying even pressure. To slice cooked meat or poultry, including salami, pepperoni, etc.: Cooked meat should be very cold. Cut into pieces to fit feed tube. Process food, using firm, even pressure. To shred firm and soft cheeses: Firm cheese should be very cold. For best results with soft cheeses, such as mozzarella, freeze 10 to 15 minutes before processing.
FOOD PROCESSING TIPS Using the Egg Whip To make egg white meringue: Place 4 egg whites and 1⁄4 teaspoon cream of tartar in work bowl fitted with the egg whip attachment. Process about 15 to 20 seconds, until foamy. With processor running, slowly add 1⁄4 to 1⁄3 cup of sugar through the small feed tube. Process until stiff peaks form, about 4 minutes. Stop processor as necessary to check texture of mixture. 28 To whip cream: Pour 1 cup heavy cream in work bowl fitted with egg whip attachment.
HELPFUL HINTS Organize processing tasks to minimize bowl cleanup. Process dry or firm ingredients before liquid ingredients. FOOD PROCESSING TIPS 1 2 3 4 5 When cutting and packing food items in the Ultra Wide Mouth™ feed tube, do not exceed the maximum fill line. This will permit the pusher to engage the interlock and the unit to operate. After removing the work bowl cover, place it upside down on the counter. This will help keep the counter clean.
HELPFUL HINTS 6 7 8 To capitalize on the speed of the processor, drop ingredients to be chopped through the small feed tube while the processor is running. 9 Never process any food that is so hard or firmly frozen that it cannot be pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. Hard food can cause damage to the blade or motor. If a piece of hard food, such as carrot, becomes wedged or stuck on the blade, stop the processor and remove the blade. Using special care, remove food from the blade.
12 13 14 15 Soft and medium-hard cheese may spread out or roll up on the shredding disc. To avoid this, shred only chilled cheese. FOOD PROCESSING TIPS 11 Sometimes slender foods, such as carrots or celery, fall over in the feed tube, resulting in an uneven slice. To minimize this, cut food in several pieces and pack the feed tube with the food. For processing small or slender items, the small feed tube in the two piece food pusher will prove especially convenient.
HELPFUL HINTS 16 32 To remove the contents of the work bowl without removing the multipurpose blade, grasp the work bowl from the bottom and place one finger through the center opening to hold the blade in place. Then remove food from the bowl and blade with a spatula.
