INTRODUCTION TO YOUR NEW CL 30 VEGETABLE PREPARATION MACHINE

The CL 30 is perfectly geared to professional needs. It can perform any number of tasks, which you will gradually discover as you use it.

The CL 30 has a wide range of cutting plates for thin slicing, grating and julienne vegetables. It will also dice and cut French fries.

Its numerous functions will open the door to a whole new culinary world.

Thanks to its simple design, all attachments can be easily removed for cleaning and maintenance.

To make things easier for you, this manual gives a breakdown of all the various assembly operations.

This manual contains important information designed to help the user get the most out of his or her CL 30 vegetable preparation machine.

We therefore recommend that you read it carefully before using your machine. We have also included

a few examples to help you get the feel of your new machine and appreciate its numerous advantages.

The machine comes with a power supply cord having an integrally molded plug.

The CL30 should be connected to a 120 V/ 60 Hz/ 1 Phase power outlet.

W ARNING

This appliance must be plugged into a grounded socket (risk of electrocution).

ASSEMBLY

The vegetable preparation attachment consists of two detachable parts: the continuous feed attachment and the continuous feed lead.

1) With the motor base facing you, fit the continuous feed attachment onto the motor base; the exit chute should be on your right.

3) Place the white discharge plate onto the motor shaft. It should fall into place just off the bottom of the continuous feed attachment.

The discharge plate may be removed from the center hub and flipped over depending on the product.

SIDE A: Straight ejection ribs facing upwards, for any vegetables or citrus fruit which require careful handling (tomatoes, mushrooms...).

SIDE B: Curved ejection ribs facing upwards in all other cases.

4) Place the cutting plate of your choice onto the discharge plate. It may be necessary to rotate the cutting plate until it engages and drops fully onto the discharge plate.

SWITCHING ON THE MACHINE

• ADVICE ON ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Before connecting, make sure your power supply corresponds to that indicated on the machine’s serial number plate.

2) Turn the attachment back to the right (counterclockwise) until it comes to a stop locked in place on the motor base tabs.

5) Dicing Instructions : Diced products are

achieved by the use of a specially designed slicing plate along with its matching grid. Two sizes are available: 8x8 and 10x10.

Page 8

• INSTALLING THE DICING GRID:

With the discharge plate in place, position the dicing grid in the continuous feed attachment so that the grid lines up with the feed opening being used.

• Position 1: Using the large hopper. In this case, the dicing grid should be positioned so that its blades are vertically aligned with the hopper. (You must be able to see the grid blades when looking into the hopper.)

• Position 2: Using the cylindrical ope-

ning.

In this case, the grid must be positioned so that the blades are vertically aligned with the tube. (You must be able to see the grid blades when looking into the tube.)

Place the matching slicing plate on the discharge plate. You may need to rotate the plate a bit until it falls into place on the discharge plate. Screw the center plate-securing knob down by turning it clockwise and continue with step 5.

6) Using the French fries

combination

A specially designed slicing plate and matching grid have been designed for making French fries. Two sizes are available: 8x8 and 10x10.

With the discharge plate in place on the motor shaft, place the French fry grid into the continuous feed attachment with the vertical blades aligned toward the discharge chute.

Place the matching slicing plate onto the discharge plate. You may need to rotate the plate a bit until it drops into place on the discharge plate. Tighten the plate-securing knob by turning it clockwise.

USES AND CHOICE OF CUTTING PLATES

The vegetable preparation machine consists of two hoppers:

- one large hopper for cutting vegetables such as cabbage, celeriac,etc.

- a cylindrical hopper for long vegetables and highprecision cutting. For optimum cutting, use this section as a guide.

HOW TO USE THE LARGE HOPPER

- Pull up on the handle to open the large hopper.

- Place the product into the hopper.

- Put the hinged pusher back over the opening.

- Apply light pressure to the pusher.

- Press the on button.

- Maintain pressure until there is no more product in the hopper.

- Press the off button.

HOW TO USE THE CYLINDRICAL HOPPER

- Remove the pusher.

- Fill the hopper with product.

- Apply light pressure to the pusher.

- Press the on button.

- Maintain pressure until there is no more product in the hopper.

- Press the off button.

THE UNIT SHOULD BE OFF EXCEPT WHEN PROCESSING IS UNDERWAY. It is recommended

that the machine be operated on a 50% duty cycle. This is easily accomplished since the preparation time (cleaning, coring, peeling, and loading) takes longer than the processing time. This will increase the life of your machine.

CLEANING

W ARNING

As a precaution, always unplug your appliance before cleaning it (risk of electrocution).

WARNING: NEVER USE PURE BLEACH.

Always dilute the detergent following the instructions given by the manufacturer.

Clean per the following instructions or as required by local health department regulations.

NOTE: The high temperatures of dish machines will tend to shorten the life of the plastic and rubber parts. Hand washing using a three-pot sink will provide for the longest life of these parts.

The continuous feed assembly, pushers, and cutting plates are dishwasher safe. They can be washed in a dish machine or three-tank system pot sink. Pre-rinse the attachments before washing to remove any bulk food on the parts. A stiff bristle brush or power sprayer faucet attachment is effective in knocking the food out of the crevices as a pre-rinse procedure. The washer should have an industrystandard wash, rinse and sanitization cycle. Allow the parts to air-dry after sanitizing and before reassembly.

WEAR CUT-RESISTANT GLOVES WHEN CLEANING THE CUTTING PLATES.

MOTOR BASE: Cleaning of the motor base assembly

must be done with care. First unplug the unit. A sponging with a cloth lightly

soaked (not dripping) in a mild detergent is acceptable, making sure the water is not permitted to penetrate the shaft seal or around the switches. Clean around the shaft seal with a small brush, taking care to remove all food. Do not forget to clean the motor shaft. Rinse the motor base first

using a cloth lightly dampened (not dripping) with water, then with a sanitizing solution, and dry the machine with a soft cloth removing all liquids from seal areas.

IMPORTANT

Check that your detergent is suitable for cleaning plastic parts. Some washing agents are too alkaline (e.g. high levels of caustic soda or ammonia) and totally incompatible with certain types of plastic, causing them to deteriorate rapidly.

MAINTENANCE

• MOTOR-SHAFT SEAL

An examination should be made periodically to assure that a seal against liquids is being maintained around the motor shaft. The seal should be lubricated regularly with a food-grade grease or oil. With proper care and depending on use, the seal should last for a year or more. However, it can and should be replaced whenever wear or erosion is noted or minimally once every three to six months. It is recommended that the seal be replaced by an authorized repair agency.

•BOWL LOCKING BUSHINGS

These bushings are located on the underside of the continuous feed assembly and hold it in place. If they become worn, the continuous feed assembly will not fit tightly, and the machine may not operate. Check your machine periodically to be sure the continuous feed assembly fits snugly on the motor base. If not, replacement bushings can be ordered.

SAFETY

The CL 30 is fitted with a magnetic safety device and motor braking system.

When you open the feed lead, the motor stops. To restart the machine, simply close the feed lead, and press the green switch.

W ARNING

The cutting plates are extremely sharp. Handle with care.

When you open the hinged pusher, the motor will stop. The motor will restart when the pusher is back in place.

The CL 30 is equipped with a thermal overload. If the machine is overloaded, the breaker will trip. If this occurs, first allow the machine to cool for a period of up to 30 minutes then, press the overload reset located on the motor base. Try to restart. If the machine will not start, remove the bowl, reduce the amount of food being processed, and try again.

REMEMBER

Never try to override or defeat the purpose of, the locking and safety systems.

Never put nonfood objects into the openings. Do Not overload the machine. Never leave the machine running unattended. Do Not process frozen products. Do Not remove the continuous feed lead

while the motor is running. Do Not attempt to julienne or dice meats or

cheeses.
