WHAT THE ACCESSORIES ARE USED FOR

SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS

Shown below are the main tasks that you would use the accessories for.
Please note that some of the accessories fit onto the spindle.

Metal Blade

Basic attachment for mixing,
chopping, kneading, making
breadcrumbs, crushing biscuits and
batters. You can also use it for
blending and puréeing instead of the
liquidiser, but the texture for soups is
not usually as smooth. The blade is
fitted onto the spindle.

Plastic Kneader Blade

For kneading and mixing. Ideal
for making bread, pastry, biscuits
and cakes. The blade is fitted onto
the spindle.

Grating Disc

Use for grating cheese, vegetables
and fruit. The appropriate disc is fitted
to the holder and then placed onto the
spindle. (A) fine grating and (C) coarse
grating plus optional Parmesan grating
disc. With all grating a piece of
unprocessed food always remains
between the holder and lid, this
is normal.

Slicing Disc

For slicing vegetables and fruit. The
appropriate disc is fitted to the holder
and then placed onto the spindle.
2 discs - (D) fine slicing and (H)
coarse slicing. The fine disc gives
wafer thin slicing but the coarse
disc gives food sliced to about
2-3 mm thickness.

Balloon Whisk Attachment

For whisking egg whites, meringues
(2 to 7 egg whites) and whipped
cream (up to 0.5 litre). Making
mayonnaise and mousses. Note: for
whipping egg whites the total time
taken is about 1

milkshakes and cocktails, pureeing
soft fruits or cooked vegetables and
fruit, making batters. Maximum
capacity of total ingredients 1.5 litre.

and vegetables such as apples,
pineapples, grapes, carrots, and
celery. This accessory has its own
lid and food pusher.

Mini Chopper

ham, small amounts of bread or
French bread for breadcrumbs, nuts
(quantities up to 80g) and prepares
baby food. Note: It is not able to
