Thank you for purchasing a Ginny’s
Brand Salad Assistant. Enjoy fast and
easy prep time…and maybe even the in-
spiration to include more variety in your
cooking and baking. Making a salad?
Line up whatever you like: hard-boiled
eggs, carrots, radishes and cucumber,
for instance. Give them a quick turn in
the salad assistant and you suddenly
have a nutritious, delicious and color-
ful creation! No more slow and tedious
cutting and chopping. It’s also great
for shredding chocolate as a dessert
garnish, chopping nuts, and readying
potatoes for hash browns or American
fries. The sky’s the limit. Enjoy!

PART NAMES
This Salad Assistant is equipped with a polarized plug in which
one prong is wider than the other. This is a safety feature, to reduce
the risk of electrical shock. The plug will t into a polarized outlet
only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug into the electrical
outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still does not t, contact a
qualied electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
No user-serviceable parts inside. A short cord is provided to reduce the
hazards resulting of entanglement or tripping over a long cord.
An extension cord may be used with care, however, the marked
electrical rating should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
this appliance. The extension cord should not be allowed to drape
over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children
or tripped over.
