Hints & Tips for French Fry, Shredding, Slicing, Grating & Julienne Blades
•For shredding, place food horizontally into the feeder tube.
•For slicing place the food vertically.
•If grating potatoes or apples, add 1 tsp 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.
6.Turn the swivel head clockwise until it stops turning and push down until it “clicks” into place. (Fig. 6)
