Disc Operation

1.Plug in the housing base and place the work bowl on top, with the work bowl handle just to the left of centre. Turn the work bowl counter-clock- 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 disc underside. The raised ‘lock’ indica- tor on the left corner of the stem should be to the left of the mounting plate on disc.

•Place the work bowl over the centre stem and turn counterclockwise to lock in place.

•Insert the metal chopping blade and put ingredient pieces in the work bowl.
