IMPORTANT NOTES
For optimal results, use the chute size appropriate
to the food to be processed. Position food in
the chute and use the pusher to push food with
light downward force prior to starting the food
processor.
Smaller Ingredients
For long thin foods such as carrots, cucumbers,
zucchini, etc., use the small or medium feed chute.
This will avoid the ingredient from tipping over,
during slicing.
Larger Ingredients
The wide feed chute is 14 cm wide and can fit
ingredients up to this size. The food should fit
snugly so it is supported in an upright position in
the chute, but not so tight that it could prevent the
food from moving down the chute. Ensure not to
overfill the chute, as the pusher will not activate the
interlock safety catch if the chute is too full. Do not
fill over the MAX indicator.

Pressure
When processing, never force the food down the
chute as this can damage the discs. Apply light,
even pressure for soft foods such as tomatoes
and bananas. Apply medium, even pressure for
firmer foods such as potatoes, cheese, deli meats
and apples.
NOTE
If foods do get stuck inside the chute, remove the
pusher, remove the lid from the bowl, and while
the chute is away from the bowl and away from the
blades; dislodge the food stuck inside the chute
by hand.
