2.Release the feed cylinder lock by turning the lock handle counterclockwise. Then swing the feed cylinder out to the right.
3.Place the ejector plate on the knife shaft. Press the ejector plate all the way down and turn until the plate is in the locked position.
4.Select the appropriate cutting tool for the job. Place it on the shaft, turning until engaged.

2.When dicing, place a suitable dicing grid (see Cutting Tool Guide) in the knife chamber and turn the dicing grid clockwise as far as it will go.
When cutting straight potato chips, place the potato chip grid in the knife chamber and turn the potato chip grid clockwise as far as it will go. For best cutting results, the direction of the potato chip grid blades and positioning of the potato should be as shown in Fig. 5.
3.Select the appropriate cutting tool. Place it on the shaft, turning until engaged.
4.Screw the decoring screw hand tight counterclockwise into position in the cutting tool center.
5.Swing the feed cylinder back to the left and turn the lock handle clockwise into locked position.
If you use the wrong combination of dicing grid and slicing tool (see Cutting Tool Guide), the following may result:
•The feed cylinder cannot be closed.
•The space between the dicing grid and the slicing tool is too large and leads to poor cutting results.
