For the R 652 and R 652
V.V. models, serrated
and fine-serrated blades
are available as optional
extras.
The serrated blades are recommended for grinding
and kneading tasks.
CLEANING
Diswashers are best avoided especially for the lid.
Instead we recommend that you clean the machine
by hand, using washing-up liquid.
If you do use a dishwasher, we suggest that you use
a detergent designed specially for aluminum.
• BLADE
The stainless steel blade of R 652 - R 652 V.V. is
easy to dismantle and to clean.
• MOTOR BASE
Never immerse the motor base in water. Clean
using a damp cloth or sponge.
• BOWL CUTTER ATTACHMENT
After removing the lid, remove the bowl from the
motor base by pushing the trigger fitted in the
handle. Pull up to disengage, leaving the blade in
the bowl in order to prevent any spillage when wor-
king with liquids.
If the food has a solid consistency, remove the blade
and empty the bowl.
Replace the bowl, place the blade back on the shaft
and switch on the machine in order to remove any
mixture which may have stuck to the blade.
If you wish, you can rinse the bowl by filling it with
hot water and switching on for a few minutes.
• VEGETABLE PREPARATION ATTACHMENT
Remove each of the parts, i.e.: the lid, disc, sling
plate and bowl by pushing the stainless steel button
and clean.
MAINTENANCE
• BLADE
We strongly recommend that the blades (smooth
ones) are sharpened daily using sharpening stone
supplied with machine.
The quality of the cut depends mainly on the sharp-
ness of your blades and the degree of wear. The
blades are actually wearing parts, which should be
replaced occasionally to ensure consistent quality in
the final product.
• MOTOR SEAL
The motor seal on the shaft should be lubricated re-
gularly using a food safe lubricant.
In order to keep the motor completely watertight, it
is advisable to check the motor seal regularly for
wear and tear and replace if necessary.
The motor seal can be easily replaced without
having to remove the motor, so we strongly advise
you to ensure that is in good condition.
After cleaning the blade, always dry the blades well
to prevent rusting.
WARNING
As a precaution, always unplug your appliance
before cleaning it (risk of electrocution).
Ensure power supply to machine is discon-
nected.
1 - Place blade dismantling tool over shaft
onto motor base.
2 - Fit blade onto shaft ensuring it is correctly
positioned.
3 - Inser t bar into blade cap and turn anti-
clockwise to dismantle .
When re-assembling do not over tighten.
A - Upper blade.
B - Lower blade.
IMPORTANT
Check that your detergent is suitable for
cleaning plastic parts. Some washing agents
are too alkaline (e.g. high levels of caustic
soda or ammonia) and totally incompatible
with certain types of plastic, causing them to
deteriorate rapidly.
