CAPACITY
The amount and size of the pieces that can
be processed at one time, and the length of
time the processing takes, depend on the
consistency of the foods and on the result
desired.
For an even and good result with firm foods
such as meat and cheese, they should first be
separated into pieces approximately equal in
size and not bigger than 1x1x1 in.
The below list indicates the recommended
maximum amounts that should be processed
at one time.
• Meat: 35 oz
• Fish: 35 oz
• Aromatic butter: 35 oz
• Mayonnaise: 33 oz
• Parsley: 33 oz
THE SCRAPER
Always have the scraper fitted during all types
of processing since the three scraper blades
slow down the rotation of the food in the bowl
and guide the food toward the center/cutting
zone of the bowl.
By turning the handle of the scraper back and
forth, the lid and walls of the bowl can easily
be scraped and the food returned to the cutting
zone while the machine is operating.
ASSEMBLING
Place the bowl on the machine base so that
the locating plate of the bowl is inserted into
the recess on the top of the machine base.
Place the knife on the shaft and rotate the
knife while pressing it down so that it sinks
completely into its coupling.
Fit the sealing ring into the groove on the
inside of the lid.
Grip the center of the scraper ring and place
the lid on the scraper ring.
NemcoFoodEquip.com
Place the scraper handle on top of the lid and
the scraper ring under it. Turn the scraper
handle counterclockwise as far as it will go in
the scraper ring and the three parts are joined.
Place the lid on the bowl so that the text "Close
Open" is at 5 o'clock in relation to the outlet of
the machine base.
Turn the lid clockwise as far as it will go.
DISMANTLING
Turn the lid counterclockwise as far as it
will go and lift away the lid/scraper from the
machine base.
Press together the scraper ring and the scraper
handle (fitted to the lid), while rotating the
scraper handle clockwise as far as it will go
and separate the three parts.
Rotate the knife clockwise as far as it will go
and remove the knife and lift off the bowl.
If the contents of the bowl are liquid it should
be emptied before the knife is removed.
USING THE SPEED CONTROL
With the speed control in the "O" position the
machine is switched off. In the "I" position the
machine operates continuously at low speed
and in the "II" position continuously at high
speed. In the "P" (pulse) position the machine
operates until the speed control is released.
CLEANING
Read all of the instructions before you begin
to clean the machine.
BEFORE CLEANING: Always switch off the
machine and remove the power supply plug
from the socket. Alternatively, if the machine
does not have a plug, open the isolating switch.
Remove all the removable parts that are to
be cleaned. Remove the scraper blades and
sealing ring as well.
CLEANING IN A DISHWASHER: All removable
parts are machine washable.
CLEANING BY HAND: Always use hand
dishwashing liquid.
CLEANING MATERIALS: Use a dish brush to
clean the food zones. The knife shaft in the
center of the machine can be cleaned with a
small bottlebrush. Use a damp cloth to wipe
down the other surfaces on the machine.
DISINFECTING: Use isopropyl alcohol (65–
70%). Isopropyl alcohol is highly inflammable
so use caution when applying it.
WARNING:
• Do not pour or spray water onto the sides
of the machine.
• Do not use boiling or hot water.
• Do not use sodium hypochlorite (chlorine)
or any agent containing this substance.
• Do not use sharp objects or any objects not
intended for the purpose of cleaning.
• Do not use abrasive detergents or cleaning
products.
AVOID: Do not use cleaning sponges with
scouring pads (e.g. Scotch-Brite™) unless
absolutely necessary. This roughens the
surface and makes it less water repellent.
ADVICE ON CARE:
• Clean the machine immediately after use.
• Dry the machine immediately after cleaning
to avoid oxidation and discoloration of the
surface.
