THE MACHINE

INCLUDES:

1.Housing base with a vertically projecting shaft and convenient touchpad control panel

2.9-cup work bowl

3.Cover with Cuisinart® Supreme Wide Mouth Feed Tube

4.Pusher assembly that slides inside the feed tube

5.Dough blade

6.Sharp metal chopping/mixing blade

8.Shredding disc

9.Detachable stem for discs (not shown) 10. Plastic spatula (not shown)

The metal chopping blade chops raw and cooked fruits, vegetables, meat, fish and cheese to the exact consistency you want, from coarse to fine, even to a purée. It chops nuts, makes nut butters, mayon- naise and sauces, and mixes tender, flaky pastry. The metal chopping blade also mixes cakes, frostings, cookies, quick breads, muffins, and biscuits.

The slicing disc makes beautiful whole slices without torn edges. It slices whole fruits and vegetables, cooked meat, semi-frozen raw meat and loaves of bread.

The shredding disc processes most firm and hard cheeses into long, attractive shreds. It also shreds vegetables like pota- toes, carrots and zucchini, and processes nuts and chocolate to a grated texture.

The detachable stem fits both discs, mak- ing disc storage compact in limited space.

The pusher assembly has two parts.

1.A small, removable, clear pusher that fits into a small center-located feed tube. This tube is for narrow food like carrots, for adding liquid, and for continuous feeding of small food like garlic.

2.A large pusher that fits into the Cuisinart® Supreme® feed tube opening and moves freely within it.

Upon contact, the large pusher meets an activating rod in the center of the work bowl handle, permitting the motor to start.

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 center. Turn the work bowl counterclockwise 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’ indicator on the left corner of the stem should be to the left of the mounting plate on disc.

3.Turn the stem to the right, so the locking tabs are covered by the metal supports and a ‘click’ locks the stem in place.
