HELPFUL TIPS

CHOOSING FRUITS & VEGETABLES
The '50S-STYLE ELECTRIC SPRIAL TWISTER & PEELER works best with fruits
and vegetables that are firm, blemish free, and symmetrically shaped.
Avoid using soft fruits and vegetables. Soft fruit and vegetables will have
problems peeling and staying in place on the Cut Fork/Peel Fork.
Try using the '50S-STYLE ELECTRIC SPRIAL TWISTER & PEELER with
sweet potatoes, apples, beets, zucchini, cucumbers, and more!
PEEL AND SPIRAL/SHRED AT THE SAME TIME
Save time by peeling at the same time you shred or spiral cut. While following
the steps to SPIRAL or SHRED, simply make sure the Peeling Arm Release
is in the up position, so that the Peeling Arm can move freely.
PEELING TOO MUCH / NOT ENOUGH
If the Peeling Blade is taking off too much peel or not enough peel, you may need to adjust
the Peeling Blade. Generally, the Peeling Blade works best when adjusted to about ¹⁄₈ inch
past the head of the Peeling Arm. To adjust Peeling Blade, loosen the screw slightly. The
blade can be moved forwards to remove more peel or backwards to remove less peel. Firmly
tighten the screw after adjustment has been made. Finding the desired result may require a
few tests and further blade adjustments. NOTE: Use caution when adjusting, blade is sharp!
PEELING ARM SHUDDERS / STUCK
If the Peeling Arm is difficult to move or will not move when the Power Button
is turned to Drive/ON, be sure base of '50S-STYLE ELECTRIC SPRIAL TWISTER
& PEELER is clean and clear of all potato pieces. The starch found in potatoes
may become sticky when peeled and make moving the Peeling Arm difficult.
A particularly dense potato may also cause the Peeling Arm to shudder. If this
happens, a less dense potato must be used or you risk damaging the appliance.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
1. Make sure Power Button is in the Twist/OFF position.
Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet.
2. Wash all loose parts in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry.
3. Wipe the Base with a damp, non-abrasive cloth, and dry.
4. When all parts are clean and dry, place the Spiral Blade, Small Shredded Blade, Medium
Shredded Blade, Cut Fork, Peel Fork and Power Cord in the Storage Compartment.
NOTE: To protect the motor plug from getting wet, never immerse the Base in
any liquid. Never place any parts in the dishwasher. Always wash by hand.
To prolong the life of your '50S-STYLE ELECTRIC SPRIAL TWISTER & PEELER, be sure to follow the cleaning instructions above after each and every use.
