USING YOUR ELECTRIC MANDOLINE
Clean the Electric Mandoline and all of its components prior to assembly and use.
Remove any stickers and packaging before rst-time use.
DO NOT use the appliance to shred tough or hard foods such as meat or ice cubes. You
may need to cut larger foods into pieces so that they can t inside the Processing Chute.
Set Motor Base on stable surface and place Processing Base
on top. Processing base is a necessary part when using the
mandoline. Make sure to place the Processing Base on motor
unit before placing the blade on base.
Assemble Blade of choice (see Assembling Blades and Inserts
on page 10 for instructions).
When using the Cube, Large Cube, or Wavy Disks, the Cube
Insert must line up with the rectangular slot over the Food
Spout AND the tab under the Blade should be inserted into
the slot in the Motor Base. You may have to slide the Cube
Insert further into or out of the Disk in order to line up the
Cube Insert and tab with the appropriate places on the
Processing Base.

Set Blade on Processing Base, ensuring that the tab
under the Blade is inserted into notch in the Motor
Base.
NOTE: This notch will be in a different place each time
you stop the Mandoline. Pay careful attention to make
sure that the tab is inserted INTO the notch and not in
front of or behind the notch.

the sides of the Container with slots under the Motor Base until
the red arrow on the Container lines up with the red arrow on
the underside of the Motor Base.
NOTE: There is a micro-switch under the Mandoline that will
not be activated if the Container is not inserted properly.
Plug in Electric Mandoline. Place food in Processing Chute and

10 ∙ assembling blades and inserts
ASSEMBLING BLADES AND INSERTS
When handling Blades and Inserts, be very careful as their blades are sharp and can
cause injury.
To assemble the Julienne / Slicer Disk, select appropriate Insert
(see Blade Conguration Chart on page 11) and slide into
Julienne / Slicer Disk until the Insert locks into place. Now you
are ready to place the Disk onto the Processing Base.
To remove the Insert, carefully lift Blade Insert up and slide it off
of the Disk. For extra thick slices, do not use an insert.
No assembly required. Simply place on Processing Base and
put the Lid on top.
Slide Cube Insert into Disk by lining up the sides of the Cube
Insert with the slots under the Disk. The arrows on the Cube
Insert should be pointing outward (away from the Blade Disk).
TIP: If you are having difcult assembling the Cube Insert, turn
the Disk and Insert over so that the blade is facing away from
you as it may be easier to see the slots on the underside of the
Disk.
To disassemble, slide Cube Insert outwards.

accessories are hand washed with the Brush for best results.
WARNING: DO NOT SUBMERGE MOTOR BASE IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS.
THE MOTOR BASE IS NOT DISHWASHER SAFE.
1. Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
2. Do not submerge the Motor Base in water or other liquids. Instead, wipe down the
Motor Base with a damp cloth and then wipe dry.
3. To avoid staining the Blades and Inserts, rub them with a cloth dipped in cooking
oil prior to cleaning.
4. Clean the Lid and Container with warm water and mild soap.
5. The Processing Base, Pusher, Container, Blades, and Inserts should be washed with
warm water and mild soap or they can be placed in the top rack of your dishwasher

Inserts with care as their blades are sharp and can cause injury. If there is food left
in the Cube Insert, use the Cube Insert Cleaner to push out food residue before
cleaning.
6. Do not use corrosive or abrasive cleaning agents to clean the device or its
accessories as this could damage the appliance.
7. Dry all parts thoroughly before storing. Store the Electric Mandoline in a dry place
that is not accessible to children or animals. Store Disks and Inserts with covers to
prevent injury when removing Inserts from storage.
