USING THE SLICE/GRATE DISC IN THE WORKBOWL
1. Lock the large workbowl into place.
2. Fit the blade shaft onto the centre post in the large workbowl.
3. Using the 2 large round holes to hold the disc you wish to use,
with the desired side up (slice or grate), place the disc onto the blade shaft (G).
4. Place lid on workbowl and lock into place by rotating counterclockwise.
5. Place food in feed chute and use food pusher to guide foods towards the slicing/grating disc.
6. Press the button for speed 2; press slowly and steadily on food pusher to guide food
through the food processor.
Note: Heavy pressure on the pusher does not speed up the work; use the pusher only as a
guide. Let the food processor do the work.
7. When nished, press OFF|PULSE and allow the disc to stop revolving and unplug the
appliance before removing the lid. Rotate the lid clockwise to unlock, and remove it from
the workbowl.
8. Carefully remove disc using the nger holes to lift straight up. Pull blade shaft out of the
workbowl. Unlock the workbowl by turning it clockwise and lift off base.
9. Empty the workbowl.
10. Unplug appliance when not in use.
HELPFUL TIPS WHEN SLICING OR GRATING
• Before slicing round fruits and vegetables through the food processor, cut a thin slice from
the bottom so food will be more stable. Place the food cut side down into the feed chute.
• Always remove seeds, core and pits before processing.
• Select foods that are rm and not over ripe.
• Remove the core from hard vegetables, such as cabbage.
• When slicing thinner vegetables, cut them just short of the length of the feed chute; place
them vertically in the feed chute so that they are solidly packed and cannot turn or tilt.
• A few large pieces of food may remain on top of the disc after slicing or grating. If desired,
cut these by hand and add to mixture.
• Soft and semi hard cheeses should be well chilled before grating. For best results with soft
cheeses such as mozzarella, freeze 15-20 minutes before processing. Cut to t feed chute
and process using even pressure.
• To slice uncooked meat, cut or roll food to t the feed chute. Remove all visible fat. Wrap
and freeze food until hard to the touch but not solidly frozen, 30 minutes to 2 hours
depending on the thickness of the food. Check that you can still pierce the food with the
tip of a sharp knife. If not, allow to thaw slightly and process using even pressure.
• To slice cooked meat, including salami and pepperoni, food should be very cold. Cut in
pieces to t the feed chute and process food using rm, even pressure.
• Remove the disc before removing the workbowl from the food processor.
