IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Connect the power supply cord to a polarized outlet only. As a safety feature, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other). This plug will only fit in a polarized outlet one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
Getting Acquainted
Before using your electric slicer/shredder,
study the diagram to the right to become
familiar with the various parts of the unit and
read the instructions carefully.

How To Use Your Slicer/
Shredder
1. Select the slicing or shredding cone and
insert it, narrow end first, into the slicing/
shredding chute (Fig. A). Then attach the
twist-lock ring by turning clockwise until
it locks into place (Fig. B). The metal portions of the slicing and shredding cones are
sharp. Handle with care.
2. Attach the food chamber assembly to the
motorized base. With the food chamber
assembly held at an angle, fully insert the
driving end of the assembly into the socket
of the motorized base (Fig. C). Next, while pushing the food chamber
assembly firmly in towards the handle, rotate the assembly clockwise
until it is upright and it is centered with the handle.
Check to be sure that the interlock bracket on the food chamber
assembly (Fig. D) has been fully captured in the bracket slot located
at the front of the motorized base (Fig. E). If it is not captured, the
unit may not operate and the food chamber assembly will fall off
the base.
3. Plug cord in and load the food chamber.
For best slicing and shredding results,
it is important that the food be prepared
properly and placed in the food chamber
as follows:
Cut food so that it will fit easily and
loosely into the food chamber. Food
that does not fit loosely in the food
chamber may become wedged in the
food chamber and therefore will not
discharge properly. If it is too large to
fit loosely in the food chamber, cut it
into smaller pieces.
