using the cutting plates
shredding plate
Cut pieces of food to fit the feed tube. Fill the tube almost to the top and push down using the pusher with an even pressure whilst the machine is running.
Longer shreds can be obtained by stacking pieces horizontally in the feed tube eg carrot.
slicing plate
If necessary cut food to fit the feed tube. Core foods such as apples and peppers. Pack the food in an upright position in the feed tube. The height should be slightly shorter than the feed tube. Using the pusher, push down with an even pressure whilst the machine is running.
hints
●Use fresh ingredients.
●Don’t cut food up too small. Fill the feed tube fairly full, this prevents food from slipping sideways during processing.
●When slicing or shredding: food placed upright comes out shorter than food placed horizontally.
●After using a cutting plate there will always be a small amount of waste on the plate or in the food.
●Do not allow food to build up to the underside of the plate - empty regularly.
●Push food down the feed tube using an even pressure.
maxi blend canopy
When blending, use the maxi blend canopy in conjunction with the knife blade. It allows you to increase the liquid processing capacity of the bowl and improve the chopping performance of the blade.
1Place the canopy into the bowl over the knife blade - do not push down .
