TIPS & HINTS
• Choose vegetables and fruits that are firm
and not overripe.
• Ingredients do not need to be cut to fit the
height of the Feed Tube. Some ingredients,
however, may need to be trimmed to fit the
width of the Feed Tube.
• Sometimes, if ingredients are too wide to fit
through the Straight Feed Tube for
spiralizing, they can first be placed directly
into the Cutting Cone before assembling the
Feed Tube. If ingredient is still too wide to fit
the Feed Tube, the sides may be pared
down.
• Before spiralizing, slightly trim tops and
bottoms of ingredients to form a flat
surface. This will help secure the food to the
Pusher.
• Make sure Pusher is firmly inserted into the
desired ingredient before spiralizing.
• Put the narrowest end of the food into the
Feed Tube first.
• Round items that fit the Straight Feed Tube
spiralize best.
• Use consistent pressure when spiralizing/
slicing/shredding to achieve the most even
cuts.
• Switching between spiralizing and slicing
and shredding is easy—simply switch the
Feed Tube.
• When continuously processing ingredients,
remove the remaining scrap from the
Cutting Cone before processing the next
ingredient.
• If the machine runs for a long time (around
60 minutes) and shuts off, the unit may have
overheated. Your machine has an overload
protection device. It will shut down to
protect the motor. Turn off and unplug the
unit, and let it rest for a few minutes. The
machine will be recovered for use.
