Begin processing by pushing down the switch and evenly pushing the food down, using the pusher. 5. The processed food will be released from the front of the unit, directly into your bowl or platter. USE AND CARE 1. Keep hands as well as spatulas and other utensils away from moving drums while processing food, to prevent the possibility of severe personal injury or damage to the food processor. A plastic scraper may be used, but only when the food processor motor is stopped. 2. Avoid contact with moving parts. Never push food down into feed tube by hand when slicing, shredding, or grating. Always use pusher. 3. The exterior of the drums are sharp. Store drums as you would other sharp objects, out of reach of children.
