THE BLADES
The blades cut, mince and purée. Great for vegetables (onions, shallots, garlic, bell peppers, cabbage, etc.), fruits (tomatoes, melons, strawberries, raspberries, etc.), herbs, nuts, ice and much more.
TO CRUSH ICE
Place the blades on the center post. Add up to 5 standard-sized ice cubes in the container. To maximize Pull Chopper performance, use ice cubes that just came out of the freezer. Start chopping by firmly pulling the handle. Pull as many times as needed until the desired ice texture.
NOTE:
Grinding ice requires some physical strength.

CLEANING

Wash the lid with a damp cloth. If water infiltrates the lid, there is a round tab underneath the lid to evacuate water. Unscrew it with a flat object and open it. Let dry for a few hours before reassembling. All other pieces are dishwasher safe.

STORAGE
Insert the blades in the protective sheath. Place the blades on the center post and put the lid back on the container.
