INTRODUCTION The Waring® FP25 and FP25C commercial food processors are the most versatile food processors in their class. These professional machines take advantage of Waring’s forty years of commercial food service experience as well as thirty years of food processing experience by the same technical, engineering, manufacturing and development team that has made Waring the best known name in food processors. These machines are both NSF and Commercial UL listed. The accessories are also NSF listed.
THE PARTS BATCH BOWL The Waring FP25 and FP25C food processors are compact, easy-to-use appliances. Completely assembled, the FP25 is only 19" high (48.9cm) and stores conveniently when not in use. For more compact storage, the cover can be stored upside down with the feed tube in the bowl. When stored this way, the unit is only 143⁄4" high (37.5 cm). ® CONTINUOUS FEED 5c 5c The Waring FP25 and FP25C food processors both consist of the following standard parts and accessories: 5b 1.
ASSEMBLY of BATCH BOWL PARTS FP25 & FP25C We will use the terms Work Bowl, Batch Bowl and Cutter Bowl interchangeably throughout this instruction book. They mean the same thing. • Clean and sanitize the motor base, and wash, rinse, and sanitize the bowl, cover, food pusher, food pusher insert and processing tools prior to initial use. • Place the base on a counter or table near a 3-prong electrical outlet. Position it so you look at the front of the unit and can see the control levers.
DISASSEMBLY of BATCH BOWL PARTS FP25 & FP25C ALWAYS UNPLUG THE CORD BEFORE DISASSEMBLING. • Turn the bowl cover clockwise until the safety interlock tab on the cover is disengaged from the magnetic safety interlock switch in the tower, and the tabs are clear of the groove in the tower. The bowl handle will be at a position between 7 o’clock and 9 o’clock. In this position you can lift the cover off the bowl. • Remove the large food pusher from the feed tube. Remove the small pusher from the large pusher.
Two Pushers for Feed Tube Pick up the large food pusher and the small food pusher. The large pusher is for processing larger vegetables. The smaller pusher nests in the larger pusher and can be used for smaller vegetables, guiding long thin vegetables for more precise cuts and for jobs like slicing pepperoni. Large Pusher Insert the small food pusher into the large food pusher opening. When it is fully inserted, rotate the small pusher clockwise to lock it into place.
FOOD PREPARATION • Prepare all food items to be processed by washing and peeling as required. Remove pits, stones, and large seeds. • Cut vegetables, meats, cheeses, etc. into sizes that will fit into your choice of small feed tube or large feed tube for processing with accessory discs, or into sizes as required by your processing task. • Preparation for slicing: Produce that is long and cylindrical such as carrots, cucumbers and celery should be cut flat at both ends.
Turn the Machine OFF with the OFF lever. • Always switch the food processor off by pressing and releasing the PULSE/OFF lever. This assures that the power is not supplied to the motor. • Always switch the food processor off and wait until rotation stops before removing the cover. • While the safety interlock switch will turn the machine off if the cover is rotated clockwise, or the cover is removed while running, this should not be the means of ON/OFF operation.
ACCESSORY DISC SELECTION AND USE Slicing Operation The FP25 and FP25C food processor disc accessories are made to perform a large variety of food processing tasks: slicing, waved slicing, grating, shredding, French fry and julienne cuts. As of this printing there are a total of 21 accessory discs available for these functions.
Grating Operation TROUBLESHOOTING • Prepare all food items to be processed by washing and peeling as required. Remove pits, stones, and large seeds. Be sure the food will fit into the proper feed chute. • Select which feed tube to use. Horizontal placement of carrots will result in a long grated product, while using the smaller chute and inserting the food vertically will give you a short grated product.
SAFETY RESET SWITCH The SAFETY RESET SWITCH is provided for your convenience and to extend the life of your Waring food processor. It is located on the back of your machine, on the safety interlock tower, protected by a round finger hole. The switch button is red. If the machine should become jammed or somehow overloaded, the safety-reset switch has a mechanism that will shut down the motor to prevent overheating and to prevent damage to the motor.
