on top, with the work

bowl handle just to the

left of center. Turn the

work bowl counterclock-

wise to lock it onto the

housing base.

2. Choose desired disc

and place underside-up

on tabletop. Pick up

detachable disc stem

and align it with the

raised plastic crescent

on the underside of the

disc. The raised ‘lock’

indicator on the left cor-

ner of the stem should

be to the left of the

center hub. It should fit

snugly and rest on the

bottom of the work bowl.

feed tube opening on

the work bowl cover and

slide the activating rod

down to the bottom.

OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS:

Try chopping some practice

foods such as a zucchini or

potato before you process

food to eat. First, cut the

ingredients into 1-inch

pieces of even size

and length.

•

Place the work bowl over

the center stem, with the

handle area just to the

left of center. Turn

counterclockwise to

lock in place.

•

Insert the metal chopping

blade and put ingredient

pieces in the work bowl.

Put on the cover and turn

counterclockwise to lock

onto work bowl. Align the

pusher and the pusher’s

activating rod with the

corresponding openings

on the feed tube, and

push all the way down.

•

Press and release the

PULSE button two or

three times. Each time the

blade stops, let the pieces

drop to the bottom of the

bowl before you pulse

again. This puts them in

the path of the blade each

time the motor starts.

•

Using the pulse/chopping

technique, you get an

even chop without

overprocessing. Check

the texture frequently

by looking through the

cover. If you want a finer

chop, press and release
