1. Read all instructions.
2. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
3. Your Waring food processor is a piece of kitchen equipment and like all other kitchen equipment,
extreme care must be used when operating it. Although training requirements are minimal, only
responsible and prudent individuals should be allowed to operate this food processor.
4. To avoid injury, never place cutting blade or disc on base without first having put the bowl properly
in place.
5. Keep hands as well as spatulas and other utensils away from moving blades or discs while processing
food to prevent the possibility of severe personal injury or damage to the food processor. A plastic
scraper may be used, but must be used only when the food processor is not running.
6. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put base in water or other liquid.
7. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
To unplug, grasp plug and pull from electrical outlet. Never pull cord.
8. Avoid contacting moving parts. Never feed food by hand when slicing or shredding.

INTRODUCTION
The Waring®FP40 and FP40C commercial food processors are the most versatile food processors in their
class. These professional machines benefit from Waring’s forty years of commercial food service experience
as well as thirty years of food processing experience by the same technical, engineering, manufacturing and
development team that has made Cuisinart the best known name in food processors.
These machines are both NSF and Commercial UL listed. The accessories are also NSF listed.
This instruction book describes two models. One model, the FP40, comes with a work bowl (also known as
a batch bowl) and a cutter blade (or S-Blade) to CHOP, GRIND, PURÉE, MIX or KNEAD in the batch
bowl. WHAT MAKES THIS MACHINE UNIQUE IS THAT THE BATCH BOWL ALSO ALLOWS
YOU TO PROCESS IN THE BOWL, which means you can SHRED, GRATE, SLICE, or JULIENNE
in the bowl WITHOUT NEED OF A CONTINUOUS FEED CHUTE! The FP40 is shipped from our
factory with a starter kit that includes a
The second model, the FP40C, comes with the same attachments as the FP40 but also INCLUDES a
CONTINUOUS FEED CHUTE to do large volume processing such as shredding, grating, slicing
and julienne.
Many additional processing accessories are available for both models. More will be added.
Size, Power and Convenience
The full one-and-one-half horsepower motor of this food processor is more powerful than other food
processors of comparable 4.0 quart size.
The wide feed tube is convenient for large volume processing of large foods; the drive shaft is of stainless
steel for durability; the housing, work bowl, chute, covers and pushers are all made from durable
polycarbonate for heavy use conditions and easy cleanup. The clear bowl and processing covers are
convenient for viewing food processing results, and extremely heavy duty for standing up to daily use.

ASSEMBLY of BATCH BOWL PARTS
(FP40 & FP40C)
We will use the terms Work Bowl, Batch Bowl and Cutter Bowl interchangeably throughout this
instruction book. They mean the same thing.
• Clean and sanitize the motor base, and wash, rinse, and sanitize the bowl, cover, food pusher, food pusher
insert and processing tools prior to initial use.
• Place the base on a counter or table near a 3-prong electrical outlet. Position it so you look at the front of
the unit and can see the control paddles. Be certain that the cord is unplugged and the OFF switch paddle
has been pressed. Do not plug in the cord until the processor is completely assembled.
• Pick up the transparent work bowl, holding it in both hands with the handles at the 4 and 10 o’clock position.
• Place the bowl on the base, fitting its central tube over the motor shaft on the base and placing its handles
at the 4 and 10 o’clock positions.
• Press the bowl down so the lower rim fits around the circular platform. Turn the bowl counterclockwise
as far as it will go. It will lock into position with the tabs on the sides of the platform.
Read this if Assembling the Batch Bowl Parts to use S-Blade (Cutter Blade).
• Do not put any food in the bowl before assembling the S-Blade to the shaft.
• Pick up the metal blade, being careful to grasp the plastic hub. Do not touch the metal blades, as they are
very sharp.
• Place the S-Blade over the tip of the motor shaft, lining up the inside of the hub with the shaft. Press it
down firmly, rotating the center hub until the blade assembly is fully seated. It should easily drop into
place. Be sure it is pushed down as far as it will go. If it is not all the way down, it may become damaged.
Push only on the center section (plastic part); never touch the cutting blade as it is extremely sharp.
• Check to be sure the blade is all the way down by turning it back and forth while lightly pushing it down.
If properly installed and fully seated, the lower blade will be positioned just above the inside bottom of
the bowl.
• If processing food with the S-Blade, now is the time to add the food or liquid to the work bowl.
Read this if Assembling Batch Bowl Parts to use Accessory Discs in Batch Bowl.
• Do not put any food in the bowl before placing the accessory disc onto the shaft.
• Select the appropriate accessory disc: Grating disc, shredding disc, slicing disc, waved slicing disc, pulping
disc, or julienne/French fry disc.
• Each of these discs had a disc stem. The disc stem fits over the double flat in the food processor’s stainless
steel motor shaft. The stem will also fit inside either the clear plastic tube inside the bowl or the
continuous feed chute and slinger.
• After selecting the appropriate disc, pick up the disc, either using the finger holes on the disc surface,
or holding the disc firmly between both hands. Be careful not to grab the blades or scrape your hands
on the shredding / grating nodules.
• Carefully guide the center disc hub over the metal shaft so the double slots in the hub line up with the pin
in the shaft. Put the disc on top of the shaft and rotate until it drops down and into place. Be sure it is
pushed down as far as it will go. Push on the outside rim only; never touch the cutting blades. It should
easily drop into place, but if not, then gently rock back and forth until you feel the disc drop into place.
• The FP40 and FP40C food processors have a locking mechanism that will secure the discs in place while
the machine is running. T
hold it securely in place.
• When it is time to remove the accessor
the disc straight up. The r

Batch Bowl Assembly continued…….
• Place the cover on the bowl, with the feed tube on the left, slightly toward the front. The locking tabs on
the cover should be at the left of the locking tabs on the front rim of the work bowl.
• Rotate the cover counterclockwise to lock it into place. When the cover is rotated into place, the safety
interlock tab on the back rim of the cover will deactivate the safety interlock mechanism located in the
safety interlock tower.
• The cover must be in place correctly, with the cover’s safety interlock tab firmly engaged with the
tower’s magnetic safety interlock mechanism, for the food processor to operate. This is an important
safety feature.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO START THE FOOD PROCESSOR
WITHOUT THE COVER LOCKED INTO POSITION.
Two Pushers for Feed Tube
Pick up the large food pusher and the small food pusher. The large
pusher is for processing larger vegetables. The smaller
pusher nests in the larger pusher and can be used for smaller
vegetables, guiding long thin vegetables for more precise cuts
or for jobs like slicing pepperoni.
Large Pusher
Insert the small food pusher into the large food pusher opening.
When it is fully inserted, rotate the small pusher clockwise to lock it
into place. Now you are ready to insert the large pusher into the feed
tube opening. Drop the pusher into the feed tube gently.
Small Pusher
To use the small pusher, rotate it counterclockwise to disengage the
locking feature. Now you can lift the small pusher up and out of the
large pusher. When using the small pusher, the large pusher now
becomes the feed tube for the small pusher.
