PROCESSING PRODUCT
Before processing product, please review the plate usage chart on Page 8, and please note that the feed
plate [Figure 2 (2)] is equipped with an adjusting nut and screw [Figure 2 (6-7)].
This assembly
should be adjusted until there is no chance of the feed plate being compressed against cutting surfaces.
If the feed plate meets a rotating cutting surface, both components will be damaged.
TO PROCESS:
Reconnect the electrical supply to the power source equipment, turn the VS2000, on.
Lift the feed plate to expose the plate unit, and drop product into the feed hopper. Keep hands clear.
With your hand holding the feed plate grip, gently compress product against the rotating plate unit.
If you experience problems in processing, shut down the power source equipment and refer to the
Trouble Shooting Guide on Page 9, and the safety precautions paragraph.

CLEANING
To avoid
damaging the VS9's highly polished fmìsh, never put any VS9 component through a
dishwashing machine. Wearing hand protection, wash all components by hand with a mild soap and
water solution. Use a long handled scrub brush on all plate units to avoid finger cuts. Again, do not
rest knives or shredding plates on any surface which will mar. Do not remove thrust bearings from
Shredder plate shafts. Dry component parts with a soft dry rag.
