Function Description:

The MultiQuick 5 Pro is a multi-functional hand blender system that comes with several interchangeable accessories, each designed for specific tasks:

Blending Shaft (6): This is the core component for blending. It's ideal for preparing dips, sauces, salad dressings, soups, baby food, beverages, smoothies, and milkshakes. For best results, the Turbo speed is recommended.
Whisk Accessory (8): Consisting of a gearbox (8a) and a whisk (8b), this accessory is used exclusively for whipping cream, beating egg whites, and preparing sponge cakes and ready-mix desserts. The highest speed setting is recommended for optimal results.
Puree Accessory (9): This accessory, comprising a gearbox (9a), a puree shaft (9b), and a paddle (9c), is designed for mashing cooked vegetables and fruits such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, plums, and apples.
Chopper Accessory «mc» (10): This 500 ml chopper includes a lid with gear (10a), a chopping blade (10b), a chopper bowl (10c), and an anti-slip rubber ring (10d). It's perfectly suited for chopping meat, hard cheese, onions, herbs, garlic, vegetables, bread, crackers, and nuts. For larger quantities and hard foods, the «mc» chopper is recommended, ensuring ingredients do not exceed the max line. Only the «mc» chopper with the special ice blade (10c) is allowed to crush ice cubes. Processing should be stopped immediately if motor speed decreases or strong vibrations occur.
Size Control Chopper Accessory (11): This 500 ml chopper offers precise size control for ingredients. It includes a lid with gear (11a), a chopping blade (11b), an ice knife (11c), a size control chopper bowl (11d), a size control insert (11e), a «mc» chopper bowl (11f), and an anti-slip rubber ring (11g). It's ideal for chopping hard cheese, onions, apples, chocolate, nuts, and ice. By using its knives, the size control chopper, and the size control insert, it can achieve food sizes of XS, S, and L. Similar to the standard chopper, only this accessory with its special ice blade (11c) is allowed to crush ice cubes.
Mini Food Processor Accessory «mini-fp» (12): This 500 ml accessory is the most versatile, capable of chopping, ice crushing, slicing, shredding, and grating. It consists of a lid with gear (12a), a coupling motor part (12b), a pusher (12c), a feed tube (12d), a chopping blade (12e), an ice knife (12f), a «mc» chopper bowl (12g), an anti-slip rubber ring (12h), and an insert holder (12i) with three different discs:
- Fine shredding / slicing disc (12i-i): For shredding and slicing foods like cucumbers, onions, mushrooms, apples, carrots, radishes, potatoes, zucchini, and cabbage.
- Coarse shredding / slicing disc (12i-ii): For shredding and slicing foods like apples, carrots, potatoes, beetroot, cabbage, and hard cheese (e.g., Parmesan).
- Fine grating / coarse grating disc (12i-iii): For grating foods such as potatoes, radish, ginger, Chinese yam, and lotus root. A crucial safety note for this accessory is never to open the lid while the discs are still rotating. It should also not be used to process foods or spices with high essential oil content (e.g., turmeric or cloves).
