Hints & Tips for Chopping Blades  
The lid and protective blade guards  
may be washed in lukewarm water  
and a mild dishwashing liquid. DO  
NOT place these in the dish-  
washer.  
Use both chopping blades for meats, fish, vegetables, cheese, etc. and have the  
speed level set to “Max”.  
For finer chopping, increase the length of time you process. DO NOT exceed  
processing times of more than 20 seconds per processing interval.  
For coarser chopping, use the “PULSE” button for a few seconds and monitor food  
texture.  
Pre-cut larger pieces to make them fit into the feeder tube. When chopping hard  
foods (e.g. meat, cheese) cut into 1-inch (2.4 cm) cubes.  
Processing Examples for Blades  
Recommended speed for processing with chopping blades is High.

Hints & Tips for Blades  
For shredding, place food horizontally into the feeder tube.  
For slicing, place the food vertically.  
If grating potatoes or apples, add 1 tsp of lemon juice to prevent them from turning  
black. Potatoes can be sliced using the thin slicing blade for chips or use the large  
french fry blade if making french fries.
