Short Power Cord
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from entanglement
or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used with care; however, be sure
the marked electrical rating is at least as great as the electrical rating of this appliance.
The extension cord should be positioned such that it does not drape over the counter or
tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. The electrical rating of this
appliance is listed on the bottom panel of the unit.

RING (2) is in place inside the AUGER COVER. The sealing ring is made of white silicone.
2. Place the AUGER into the FEED TUBE
3. Place the AUGER COVER over the FEED TUBE and hand turn the AUGER COVER counter-
clockwise until hand tightened. There is no need to use the AUGER WRENCH when placing
the AUGER COVER over the FEED TUBE.
4. Insert the assembled FEED TUBE into the MOTOR HOUSING by aligning the HOPPER of the
FEED TUBE with the unlock graphic on the MOTOR HOUSING. Turn the FEED TUBE counter-
clockwise to the lock position.
5. To disassemble conduct the above steps in reverse direction.It may be necessary to use
the AUGER WRENCH to remove the AUGER COVER. To do so, place the AUGER WRENCH over
the AUGER COVER and turn clockwise.

This appliance has two functions, one is for frozen fruit, and the other is for slicing and
shredding. Before rst use clean all accessories according to the CARE & CLEANING section
of this manual. Be careful when handling blades as they are sharp.
OPERATION
1. Prepare your food by cutting it to the appropriate size to t within the HOPPER. Food must
not be wider than 2”.
2. Choose the blade type according to your processing needs (see section KNOW YOUR
PROCESSOR of this manual. Ensure that you assemble the pair of blades with the same
color.
3. Plug the appliance into a standard 120 V outlet and press the ON/OFF switch to the
ON position. Place a clean container under the CUTTING TUBE COVER to catch food being
processed.
4. Food should be cut to t within the HOPPER and not wedged tightly. The slicer/shredder
works best when the hopper is full with properly sized food (no greater than 2”). Do not
overll the HOPPER. Food can be stacked horizontally for longer slices,or vertically for shorter
slices.
5. Feed food to be processed thru the HOPPER of the CUTTING TUBE. Use the FOOD PUSHER
to push food down into the CONE for processing using steady pressure. Never use hands
or any other utensil to push food down the HOPPER to prevent damaging this appliance
or causing personal injury. Some foods require more pressure on the FOOD PUSHER than
others,such as vegetables that are very rm like carrots and sweet potatoes, or soft cheese.
See the helpful hints section for additional tips.
6. When processing is complete press the ON/OFF switch to the “OFF” position and unplug
appliance form the outlet.
SLICER/SHREDDER ATTACHMENT

HELPFUL HINTS – SLICING & SHREDDING
1. Only process food that is rm and always use fresh ingredients for best results.
2. Do not process solid frozen food or food that cannot be easily cut with a standard knife.
This processor is not intended to grate ice, slice hard baking chocolate bars, or grind coffee
beans.
3. Place food such as carrots and celery vertically in the HOPPER and ensure that the
HOPPER is full before processing. This will ensure even slicing during processing.
4. Carrots can cause staining of the Hopper, to reduce stains mix ½ cup of white vinegar
with ½ cup of water and wipe surface with a sponge.
5. Some food may become wedged between the BLADE CONE and CUTTING TUBE. This is
normal.
6. We do not recommend processing room temperature soft cheese such as cheddar
and mozzarella. For best results remove from refrigerator only when ready to process. Soft
fruits can also be placed in the freezer for 5 minutes prior to processing.
7. Some foods require more pressure on the FOOD PUSHER than others,such as vegetables
that are very rm like carrots and sweet potatoes, or soft cheese.
9. Do not overll the HOPPER. Food should be cut to t within the HOPPER and not wedged
tightly.
10. When processing cheese, only use the shredding blades as the slicing blades are not
designed to cut cheese.
11. As a general rule if food cannot be easily pierced with a knife tip, do not attempt to
process in this appliance.
8.
Do not operate the unit for more than 1 minute continuously or the food weight no more
than 0.5kg for each use. In-between processing jobs turn motor off until food is ready to be
processed again.

1. Prepare your food such as bananas, apples, strawberries, mango etc. Peel the fruit
before freezing and cut them to chunks no large than 1-1/2” square. Remove seeds or pits
from the fruit prior to freezing.
2. Place fruit in the freezer for at least 8 hours.
3. After 8 hours (or any time after 8 hours) take the fruit out of the freezer and let it sit out
for 15 minutes before processing. This will allow the fruit to pass easily through the auger
and provide you with a soft-serve consistency.
Note: Do not attempt to process rock-hard frozen fruit to avoid damaging the motor or
parts.
4. Assemble FROZEN FOOD ATTACHMENT according to the section “ASSEMBLY AND
DISASSEMBLY” of this manual.
5. Place a clean container under the AUGER COVER to catch food being processed.
6. Fill the HOPPER with fruit but do not wedge ingredients, if the fruit cannot freely fall into
the hopper cut to the proper size before processing. Use the FOOD PUSHER to push food
down into the FEED TUBE for processing using steady pressure. Never use hands or any
other utensils to push food down the HOPPER to prevent damaging this appliance or
causing personal injury. If excess pressure is needed to push the food into the FEED TUBE
wait a few seconds and reapply pressure.
7. Plug the appliances into a standard 120 V outlet and press the ON/OFF switch to the
ON position.
8. When processing is complete press the ON/OFF switch to the “OFF” position and unplug
appliance form the outlet.
FROZEN FRUIT ATTACHMENT

HELPFUL HINTS – MAKING FROZEN TREATS
1. Always remove seeds and peels on fruit PRIOR to placing in the freezer. Place in a
plastic storage bag, or sealed container to prevent avor transfer of other foods.
2. Do not attempt to process fully frozen food to avoid damaging the motor. When food
is removed from the freezer allow it to sit out for at least 15 minutes prior to processing. This
will prevent strain on the motor, and provide you with an even consistency in the processed
fruit.
3. Do not wedge food tightly in the HOPPER. Food should fall freely into the HOPPER and be
precut prior to placing in the freezer to a size no greater than 1-1/2” in width. Always use
fully ripe fruits.
4. Additional ingredients can be processed with the fruit such as chopped nuts,coconut,or
other spices that you may desire to suit your personal test. As a general rule all condiments
should be chopped or cut to a size no greater than a raisin. Alternate fruit with other
condiments within the HOPPER during processing.
5. While processing you can rotate the container catching the fruit to swirl around the
bowl.

1. All accessories should be cleaned after each use.
2. Unplug the power cord before cleaning.
3. Blades are sharp. Handle them carefully.
4. Disassemble all the accessories that you have used according to the Assembly and
Disassembly section of this manual.
5. All parts of this appliance can be placed in the dishwasher or washed in warm soapy
water with the exception of the MOTOR HOUSING.
6. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put the MOTOR HOUSING in water or
other liquid.
7. The MOTOR HOUSING surface can be wiped with a damp cloth and then dried thoroughly,
8. The FOOD PUSHER can also be used as blade storage box for the cutting blades. The
storage box can hold 4 blade sets (8 individual blades). The extra blade set should be
placed in the blade cone. To place blades in the storage box align all the blades up to
ensure they are evenly spaced with the exible tab nested in each blade group. Place the
narrow end of the blade sets into the storage box as show in the illustration below. Do not
attempt to place blades back into the storage container one at a time.
