vegetables, cheese etc.
• For mincing, chopping and pureeing, increase the length of
pulses.
• For coarse chopping, use short, quick pulses and monitor
food texture.
• Pre-cut larger pieces to make them fit into the Master
Prep® Professional. When chopping hard foods (e.g. meat,
cheese) cut into 1-inch cubes.

Either you are chopping too much food at one time, or the pieces are not small
enough. Try cutting the food into smaller pieces of even size and processing
smaller amounts per batch.
The food has been over processed. Use brief pulses or process for shorter time.
Let blades stop completely between pulses.
You may be processing too much food. Turn the machine off. When the blades
stop rotating, remove the power head and the splash guard. Remove some of the
food being processed.
Do not use ice that has been sitting out or has started to melt. Be sure to use
short pulses in the beginning to break up large pieces.
