2) Remove the disc by lifting it from underneath
using the hub and if necessary, turn in an anti-

clockwise direction to release…
If you have been using a dicing unit, we recom-

mend you remove the grid and the disc at the same
time. This will be easier if you first rotate the

emptying disc.

3) When fitting dicing equipment, we recommend
that you clean the inside of the bowl with a damp
cloth or sponge, particularly the part onto which the
grid is to be fitted.

Always use a properly cleaned grid.

Never process soft foodstuffs after hard ones
without properly cleaning the grid beforehand.

machine and lock onto the motor base using the
fastening hook.

USES AND
CHOICE OF DISCS

The lid of the vegetable processor features two feed
openings:

- a wide feed opening for processing vegetables
such as cabbage and celery.

- a narrow feed opening for long vegetables,
guaranteeing a remarkable degree of cutting
precision. Cutting quality can be optimized if the
compartment is used as a cutting guide.

USING THE WIDE FEED OPENING

-Raise the pusher to gain access to the feed
opening.

- Fill the feeder right up to the top with vegetables.

- Lower the pusher so that it is flush with the top of
the feed opening.

- Exert a downwards pressure on the pusher. This
pressure should just accompany the cutting
process and will vary according to the type of cut.
Remember that too great a pressure will place
unnecessary strain on the appliance.

- Cut cabbages in half and remove the core before
processing, in order to avoid unnecessary strain
and ensure an end-product of a higher quality.

USING THE WIDE FEED OPENING

Fill the feeder right up to the top with vegetables.
Apply a downwards pressure on the pusher
and maintain it until all the vegetables have been
processed.

Always press the vegetables down with a pusher to
improve cutting efficiency.

CLEANING

WARNING

Always unplug your food processor before
cleaning (risk of electric shock).

Dishwashers are best avoided in order to prevent the
aluminum from becoming tarnished. Instead we

recommend that you clean the machine by hand,
using a “soft metal saf

e” detergent.

The continuous feed lead, discharge plates, and cutting
plates can be cleaned in a dishwasher. However, we
suggest that you use a mild (non- corrosive) detergent

des

igned for soft metals such as aluminum.

NEVER IMMERSE THE MOTOR BASE IN WATER.
CLEAN IT WITH A DAMP (NOT DRIPPING), CLOTH
OR SPONGE.

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

• BLADES, PLATES AND GRATERS

The blades on the slicing discs, the plates on the
julienne discs and the graters are all wearing parts,

which have to be changed every so often to ensure
high quality cutting.

SAFETY

WARNING

The cutting plates are very sharp. Wear cut
resistant gloves when handling the plates.

1) The CL 50 is fitted with a safety system that turns
the machine off when the lead is opened or if the lid
latch is opened. If this system should ever fail,

the machine should be removed from use and
serviced immediately.

To restart your machine, simply close the feed lead
close the lid latch and press the green switch.

2) The CL 50 is fitted with a temperature fuse that

automatically stops the motor if the machine is left
on for too long or overloaded. If this happens,

allow the machine to cool completely before restarting.
If the machine has become jammed press the off

n and UNPLUG the machine from the wall

butto
outlet, and restart by first pressing the reset button
located on the bottom of the motor base. Then close
the lead / attachment, cl

ose the latch, and press the

on button.

,

WARNING

Do not open the feed lead until the motor has
come to a complete stop.

Never tamper with or defeat the purpose of
the locking and safety systems.

Never place anything other than food pro­ducts into the entry port.

Never put anything into the exit port.
Always use the food pushers to force the food

through the entry ports.
Do not overload the machine or apply excess

pressure with the food pushers.
