INSTALLATION

carton, inspect the unit for signs of damage. If there
is damage to the unit:

l Notify carrier within 24 hours after delivery.
l Save carton and packing materials for inspection

purposes.

Prince Castle Customer Sales Department at

reduce blade damage do not force onions onto carrier
plate. If onion touches blades at this point, slices will
vary and blades will be damaged.
