7. Stab the food to be sliced onto the
spikes of the Food Pusher. FIGURE E
ALWAYS use the Food Pusher!
NEVER use your fingers, hands or
other objects to push the food on the
Slicer! The Food Pusher is designed
so that it will not touch the Blades as
you slide it up and down the face of the
Slicer.
NOTE: A small flat edge may need
to be sliced on the top of the food so
there is a stable area for the Food
Pusher to hold on to.
8. To adjust the thickness of the slices,
pull out and turn the Depth Adjustment
Knob and turn it clockwise. This will
lower the Depth Plate, making thicker
slices. Turning the Depth Adjustment
Knob counter-clockwise will raise the
Depth Plate, making thinner slices

9. Hold onto the handle on the Rear
Stand and using the Food Pusher with
the food attached. Slide the Food
Pusher downward to slice.

10. Maintain constant pressure so that
the spikes of the Food Pusher continue
to hold the vegetable/fruit.
11. As an alternative, fold the Rear
Stand up and place the Slicer on top of
a bowl. Be certain that the bowl edges
align with the notches on the Slicer,
both front and back, so that the Slicer
remains stable while slicing. FIGURE H
12. For julienne slicing, pull out and
turn the Julienne Blade Knob to expose
either the 1/4" (0.64 cm) or the 3/8"
(0.375 cm) Julienne Blades. FIGURE I
