Shredding Instructions
Place the processing bowl (5) onto the base and lock into place.
Attach the slicing/shredding blade onto the blade holder with the shredding blade in the down position.
Lower the blade unit into the bowl.
Place the processing lid with food chute onto the machine by turning the lid clockwise so that the center
tab clicks into the unit. The food will exit the machine to the right so be sure to place a bowl underneath!
Prepare the food by trimming the ends flat and, if necessary, trim lengthwise to comfortably fit into the
chute.
Place the food in the chute BEFORE TURNING UNIT ON and rest the plunger on top with light pressure.
Press the Start button with your left hand while gently pushing the food into the chute.
Tips:
When shredding long, thin foods such as celery and carrots, group the food tightly to fill the chute
vertically. This helps to keep the slices consistent.
When shredding cheeses, the colder, the better! If you are shredding a soft cheese, freeze for 10
minutes before shredding. Be careful not to apply too much pressure on the plunger while shredding; let
the machine do the work!
Avoid slicing dense, greasy meats such as pepperoni and hard salami.
