The appliance must be protected by
a 3A approved (BS1362) fuse.

Note:

●

For non-rewireable plugs the fuse
cover MUST be refitted when
replacing the fuse. If the fuse cover

to use your food
chopper

The knife blade unit comes in 2
p

arts, a lower and an upper blade.

●

For coarser chopping use the lower
blade on its own.

●

F

or finer chopping or pureeing use
both blades together. This will also
give a faster result. To use both
blades fit the upper blade onto the
lower blade and turn anti-clockwise
to locate in place . Take care as
the blades are sharp.
Note: After processing food, the
upper blade may disengage from the
lower blade. This is normal as the
blade assembly is designed to be
loose fitting to ease separation after
use.

1 Put the bowl base on the bottom of

the bowl. (This stops the bowl sliding
on the work top).

2 Place the unit on a clean, flat

surface.

3 Fit the desired knife blade assembly

into the bowl over the locating pin
.

4 Cut the food into suitably sized

pieces and place in the bowl. Larger
pieces of food should be cut into
approximately 1 to 2 cm pieces.

5 Fit the cover and turn clockwise to

lock into place .

6 Place the power unit onto the cover.
7 Connect to the power supply and

press down on the speed selector to
select the desired speed. When
operating the power unit, hold it
firmly on the cover and bowl.

●

Press the speed selector lightly to
obtain speed 1.

●

Press the speed selector firmly to
obtain speed 2.

●

Alternatively the speed selector may
be pressed down for short periods
of time to produce a pulsing action.
This can be used to avoid over
processing food.

8 Operate the food chopper until the

desired result is achieved.

9 Switch off and unplug after use.
10 Reverse the above procedure to

dismantle the unit.

peration.

●

Do not operate the food chopper if
the bowl is empty.

●

Never operate the food chopper with
the bowl filled with liquid.

●

Always allow hot food to cool before
processing.

hints

●

If the chopper labours, remove some
of the mixture and continue
processing in several batches,
otherwise you may strain the motor.

●

Remember that chopping hard foods
such as coffee beans, spices,
chocolate or ice will wear the knife
blades faster.

●

Beware of over processing some
ingredients. Stop and check the
consistency frequently.

●

Various spices such as cloves, dill
and cumin seeds can have an
adverse effect on the plastic of your
food chopper.

●

To ensure even processing, stop and
scrape down any food from the side
of the bowl with a plastic spatula.

●

The best results are obtained by
chopping small quantities at one
time.

●

Cut larger pieces of food into 1-2cm
pieces. A large load or large pieces
may cause uneven results.

●

Before chopping nuts, herbs,
breadcrumbs etc, ensure that both
the food and the blade, bowl and
cover are thoroughly dry.

Please refer to the mayonnaise
recipe in the recipe section for
information on how to assemble and
use the mayonnaise dripper.
