USEFUL TIPS

1. Holding the sides of the transparent guard will release the pins and allow food to be properly secured under the hand guard.
2. Food should fit completely inside the pusher; you may need to cut ends. This will increase the stability of food.
3. The first cut may be harder; starting with the shorter side of the vegetable may help.
4. When grating, turn the thickness adjustment knob so that the platform is leveled with the grating blade.
5. Raw sweet potatoes are tough and fibrous, we recommend caution. Cutting sweet potatoes requires much more strength.
6. To turn the julienne adjustment knob you must push cubing locking slider to the right until you hear a click to release the julienne blades.
7. You may cut in half longer foods such as carrots and cucumber, this will make  self-feeding function easier.
8. Make delicious homemade chips using the thinnest thickness options. Slice your potatoes, add a small amount of salt and oil, and put them in the microwave on top of a parchment paper.  Cook at the highest temperature for 2–5 minutes or until potatoes are golden brown.

CLEANING

• Wash before first use.
• Pull out and turn the thickness adjustment knob to storing position (rear platform adjusted to the highest position).

STORAGE
