Parts of Your Oskar®Jr. Chopper Plus

As you unpack your new Oskar®Jr. Chopper Plus, take a moment to identify each of the
various parts as shown in these illustrations. BE SURE TO HANDLE THE BLADE
CAREFULLY, AS IT IS VERY SHARP.

By following the simple, step-by-step instructions in this booklet, you will learn how
things go together and how wonderfully convenient your new Oskar

really is to use.

Assembling Your Oskar®Jr. Chopper Plus

Before you begin, please BE SURE THAT THE ELECTRIC CORD
IS UNPLUGGED.

Set up the motor base facing you on a dry, level surface
with the tallest side of the motor housing to the rear.
NOTE: An “ON” and “OFF” switch is located on the
back of the motor base.

Place the clear Container over the drive shaft on the motor base
and rotate the Container until it drops down evenly on the base.
Now turn the Container counter-clockwise until it locks firmly
into position.

Place the Chopping Blade over the drive shaft, rotating it slightly
until it drops into place. THE BLADE IS EXTREMELY SHARP.
USE CAUTION WHEN HANDLING THIS BLADE.

To attach the cover, place the cover on the container so that
the large locking tab of the Cover is to the right-hand side near
the horizontal slot at the back of the motor base. When turned
counter-clockwise, the tab will engage the automatic switch
and the Oskar
the Cover in the opposite direction it will turn OFF.

Using Your Oskar®Jr. Chopper Plus

Pulsing techniques:

The Oskar®Jr. Chopper Plus processes food very quickly; in most
cases, in seconds! Therefore, foods can easily become over
processed if you don’t watch carefully. We suggest that when
using the unit, you chop foods no more than a few seconds at
a time. Turn the cover ON and OFF frequently until the desired
results are obtained. To use this “Pulsing Technique,” simply rotate
the cover so that the locking tab moves in and out of the automatic
switch slot. Pulsing ensures excellent results every time.

4

Placing food into the container:

For the best, most consistent results, you should try to chop pieces of food that are of
about equal size. When you cut, break or tear foods into uniform pieces before you begin
chopping, the finished results will be more uniform too. You will get faster, more
consistent results if you do not overload the Container. Chop foods in small amounts.

Chopping meats:

Pre-cut meats into pieces about 3/4 inch. Place the pieces
in the Container, replace the Cover and process them using
the pulse technique for 5 or 7 seconds. Never process more
than 1/2 cup of meat cubes at one time.

Chopping vegetables:

When processing vegetables such as onions,
green peppers, and celery, cut into 3/4-inch pieces.
Place 4 to 6 pieces into the container, turning the Oskar
Chopper Plus ON and OFF 1 to 2 times to coarsely chop,
3 to 4 times more to finely chop.

Jr.

Adding liquid ingredients:

Liquid ingredients may be added while the Oskar®Jr.
Chopper Plus is operating by pouring them through the
pouring hole in the cover.

Chopping:

Now you can mince garlic, chop parsley and chop herbs in
seconds. Simply drop halved garlic cloves or parsley sprigs
into the container and mince. Chopped foods that cling to
the container are easily swept out with a spatula.

5

Removing the Blade:

When you have finished chopping, UNPLUG THE
ELECTRICAL CORD FROM THE OUTLET. Remove the Cover.
Remove the Chopping Blade with food clinging to it before
removing any food from the Container. The blade is extremely
sharp. Use caution when removing this blade. Clean the blade
with a scraper over the bowl.

NOTE: ALWAYS WAIT FOR THE BLADE TO COME TO
A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE REMOVING THE COVER

Removing the Container:

Place the Cover on the Container. Use the Cover to help
remove the Container. Rotate the Cover clockwise 180 degrees
until the two tabs on the cover meet the two Container tabs.
Continue to turn the Cover, using firm pressure, with your
thumb against the tabs until the Container is released. Empty
the remaining food from the Container.

Cleaning, Storing, and Caring for Oskar®Jr. Chopper

When you have finished chopping, unplug the unit from the electrical outlet and remove
the Cover, Chopping Blade and the Container from the Motor Base. Wipe the base of your
unit with a damp cloth, then polish it lightly with a dry one. NEVER IMMERSE THE
MOTOR BASE IN ANY LIQUID.

DO NOT WASH ANY PARTS IN AN AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.
Wash the Container and Cover in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry immediately.
Wash the Chopping Blade by hand. Avoid placing the Chopping Blade in soapy water
where it can be lost from sight.

REMEMBER TO USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN HANDLING THE CHOPPING BLADE.
IT IS VERY SHARP!

Cleaning the internal shaft of your Chopping Blade is most important. We suggest the use
of a small percolator or baby bottle brush to remove any food particles, then wash and dry
the shaft thoroughly.
Sunbeam suggests that you store the Oskar®Jr. Chopper Plus on a dry counter or table top
in your kitchen, where it will always be ready for immediate use. Store the Chopping Blade
in the clear Container (OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN). The Blade is EXTREMELY sharp!
Use caution when handling the blade.

6

After washing and drying the Container, you may wish to apply a small amount of
vegetable oil to the rim of the cover and container. This lubrication allows the cover
to move freely when in contact with the container.

ALWAYS STORE BLADE OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN!

A Few Things to Remember

1. Use the Oskar®Jr. Chopper Plus only on a dry level surface - never outdoors,
on a damp surface, or on a table edge.

2. Never remove the cover until the Blade has come to a complete stop and the unit
has been unplugged from an electrical outlet.
