FUNCTIONS OF HOPPERS

AND THEIR TOOLS

• PUSHER FEED-HEAD

This hopper allows you to prepare all types of vegetables:

- the large feed hopper is used to prepare bulky vegetables such as cabbage, celery, lettuce, etc.,

- the tube is used to prepare long or fragile fruit or vegetables.

The lever-fitted feed tube can be adjusted to 3 positions depending on the height of the operator. To change the position, loosen the attachment and adjust to the desired position.

Two types of tool are designed for the lever-type hopper:

1) The loading cone, which guides

the vegetables (except for cabbage) towards the blades. This tool must be screwed firmly onto the motor shaft.

2) The hollowing cutter used only to prepare cabbage.

A special tool for unlocking the cabbage corer.

• HOLE FEED HEADS

4 TUBES FEED-HEAD

This feed-head is equipped with 4 straight holes: 2 straight tubes of 50 mm diameter and 2 straight tubes of 70 mm diameter.

This hopper is designed for the preparation of long vegetables like carrots, cucumbers,leeks, etc., or of fragile fruit and vegetables such as tomatoes, bananas, etc.

STRAIGHT AND SLOPING TUBE HOPPER

This hopper consists of two straight tubes with a diameter of 75 mm diameter, a 50 mm insert and 2 pushers of 50 mm and 70 mm. The insert allows you to modify the

diameter of the tubes.

This hopper performs the same functions as the one described above with its straight tube. But it is different in that it is equipped with a sloping tube especially designed for slanted cutting.

No special tool is required to attach these hoppers onto the disc.

• AUTOMATIC FEED-HEAD

This hopper is intended for continuous cutting tasks.

It is ideal for slicing delicate vegetables such as mushrooms and tomatoes, grating carrots, slicing potatoes and cutting french fries, to mention but a few of its uses.

This hopper is not suitable for certain specific tasks, such as :

- slicing long vegetables (use the hole feed-heads).

- preparing bulky vegetables which are too big to be fed into this hopper (use the pusher feed-head).

Make sure that the agitator is in place, in order to avoid blockages and variations in cutting quality. It is vital that this tool be fitted each time the automatic hopper is used.

Two types of tool are designed for the lever-type hopper:

1) The agitator, which guides the

vegetables (except for cabbage) towards the blades.

2) Introducing the vegetables too quickly can result in a logjam. If this occurs, clear the blockage using the crank supplied for that purpose (all other means are strictly prohibited).

The crank serves to clear the machine if it becomes clogged up with bulky vegetables.

CLEANING

WARNING

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

After removing the head of the vegetable preparation machine, take off the disc, followed by the grid and discharge plate where necessary.

Dishwashers are best avoided in order to prevent the aluminium from becoming tarnished. Instead we recommend that you clean the machine by hand using washing-up liquid.

If you do put your machine in a dishwasher, we suggest that you use a detergent designed specially for alu minium.

Never immerse the motor base in water. Clean it with a damp 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

• MOTOR SEAL

The motor seal on the shaft should be lubricated regularly using a food safe lubricant.

In order to keep the motor completely watertight, it is advisable to check the motor seal regularly for wear and tear and replace if necessary.

The motor seal can be easily replaced without having to remove the motor, so we strongly advise you to ensure that is in good condition.

• BLADES AND PLATES

The blades on all our discs are wearing parts that need to be replaced from time to time, in order to maintain consistently high cutting quality.

• GRATING DISCS

Grating discs deteriorate over time. We recommend you replace them from time to time, in order to maintain consistently high cutting quality
