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 (2.5cm) pieces of even size and length.

•Place the work bowl over the center stem and 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 the “Pulse” button until you achieve the desired texture. Onions and other food with a high water content will quickly end up as a purée unless examined through the work bowl after each pulse to make sure they are not overprocessed.

Try chopping other food like meat for hamburger or sausage. Then make mayonnaise, pastry or bread, as described in the following sections. To obtain consistent results:

•Be sure all the pieces you add to the bowl are about the same size.

•Be sure the amount you process is no larger than recommended on the inside cover of this book- let.

Before you do anything, wait for the blade to stop spinning. Once it does, remove the pusher assem- bly. Then turn the cover clockwise to unlock and remove by lifting it off.
