This appliance 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 should be attached to the appliance before connecting to an electrical outlet.
The plug will t into a polarized outlet only 1 way. If you are unable to insert the
plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied
electrician. DO NOT attempt to modify the plug in any way. Montgomery Ward can
not accept any liability for damage or injury resulting from failure to observe these
safety procedures.

Always use the food pusher.
• BLADES ARE VERY SHARP. Be extremely careful when handling blades!
Notes: • This appliance includes a safety switch which prevents operation unless
