Spindles and Discs
1. Before placing the lid onto the processing bowl,
choose your spindle and position it over the
coupling in the centre of the processing bowl.
Then position your chosen attachment over
the spindle.Please note that the Quad®Blade
and Dough Blade do not require a spindle for
processing.
2. The disc spindle is required when using the
following discs: adjustable slicer, reversible
shredder, julienne, french fries cutter and the
peeler. Do not use the geared spindle for those
attachments.Failing to use the disc spindle will
damage the parts, and incorrect use this way
may cause the parts to fuse together.

3. The geared spindle is required when using the
dicing kit.To dice vegetables or fruit insert the
geared spindle into the bowl rst, followed by
the dicing grid, ensuring to align with the 4 tabs
in the bowl, then insert the dicing disc.
Make sure you follow the right order. If you
intend to dice larger quantities (more than
5 cups) please insert the dicing distributor
after placing your geared spindle into the bowl.
The dicing distributor will help to distribute
diced food evenly across the bowl.
Do not use your dicing kit with the disc spindle.
Always use the geared spindle.

Mini Processing Bowl
The mini processing bowl ts inside the main bowl.
Do not use any spindle, or the processing discs.
Use only the mini processing blade in the mini
bowl.Please note that the mini blade cannot be
used in the main processing bowl.
Lid
Place lid onto the processing bowl so that the
ALIGN / LOCK graphics on the lid and handle
align.To LOCK the lid, hold the chute and turn
clockwise so that the handle parts align.
Locking the lid correctly will engage the
interlocking safety catch on the handle, and allow
the motor to run.

13
EN
OPERATION
Getting started
The food processor will only operate when the
processing bowl, lid and large pusher are correctly
assembled.This engages the safety interlock,
and allows the motor to run.
The chute has a CHUTE FILL MAX graphic
to indicate the maximum volume of food that can
be placed in the chute for the pusher to activate
the safety locking catch.
Control buttons
The momentary PULSE button is ideal for
processing foods that need sudden bursts of
power. It also encourages ingredients to move
around the bowl.PULSE is also best when
processing foods that only require processing
for a short period of time.
After Processing
After processing, wait until the blades/discs have
stopped moving before unlocking the lid.To ensure
safe handling, turn o at the POWER button and
unplug at the power outlet before handling the
blades.
When removing blades/discs, lift the part by
carefully gripping the plastic hub in the centre.
DICING WITH THE DICING KIT
The dicing kit dices raw and cooked food into
cubes of the size of 12 x 12mm.
Always remember to place the geared spindle,
dicing grid and dicing disc into the food processor
before adding the food.
Do not dice more than 10 cups (2.4l) in your food
processor at a time.Exceeding this capacity could
lead to the product jamming in the disc. It will
also make the cleaning process of the dicing grid
challenging.
Clean dicing grid each time after dicing 10 cups.
Vegetables and fruits
The dicing kit can process raw and cooked
vegetables and also fruits.To improve dicing results
for harder vegetables like carrots and pumpkin,
par-cooking is recommended. Only par-cook
vegetables that need to be cooked afterwards.
For best results when dicing with raw, hard
vegetables feed carrots length-ways through the
small feed chute, and feed pumpkin through the
medium feed chute. Feeding this produce through
the large feed chute may lead to jamming of the
disc.
DO NOT DICE SWEET POTATO
(Yam/Kumara).
Due to its dry, brous texture dicing sweet potato
is not recommended with the Dicing Kit. Sweet
Potato places high load on the Dicing Kit which
causes high friction and potential damage to the
Bowl Lid.
Use the START / PAUSE button for control when
dicing food.
PEELING WITH THE PEELER
Potato peeling made easy
Take the hard work out of peeling potatoes.
The Sage peeler will peel potatoes in batches
of 6–7, depending on the size. Peeling is very fast,
and may nish quicker than expected. Keep your
eye on progress, and it should be done in
25–30 seconds.
Size matters
The best size potatoes to use are around
70mm x 70mm, which is about the size of this
illustration. Choose potatoes that are round,
rather than elongated.
Use whole potatoes, as cutting potatoes into half
or quarters creates square edges that won’t peel
eciently. Using rounder potatoes will reduce the
amount of waste.
Loading the potatoes
Position 6–7 potatoes evenly on top of the peeler.
Potatoes should have enough room to freely roll
and rumble.If potatoes are too tightly packed,
the peeling won’t be as eective. Keep in mind
that the peeling works best with a complete batch,
and peeling just a couple of potatoes won’t be as
ecient. Lock lid in place before starting, and never
insert potatoes through the chute.
Functions

14
The best size potato
for the peeling disc is
around 70mm x 70mm.
Choose potatoes that are
round, rather than elongated.
Peeling other produce
The peeler disc can peel potatoes very well but it
can also be used to peel other rm, round produce
such as beetroot.
It can also peel carrots and sweet potatoes.
Depending on the size, we recommend cutting
carrots and sweet potatoes in 2–3 pieces before
placing them into the bowl.
CHOPPING WITH THE QUAD®BLADE
The micro-serrated Quad blade chops raw and
cooked food to the consistency required, from
coarsely chopped to minced.The blades process
very eciently, and may take less time than
expected to process many large tasks.
Raw vegetables, fruit and cooked meats
Trim and cut food into 2.5cm cubes.
Process no more than 7 cups at a time using
the PULSE button at 1–2 second intervals until
chopped to desired size or consistency.
Raw meat, chicken and sh
Trim excess fat and sinew, and cut food into 2.5cm
cubes.Ensure all bones are removed. Chill well in
freezer until rm as this will help to cut through the
food more easily. Process no more than 4 cups
(600g) of raw meat at a time. At this capacity the
motor should run for no more than 30 seconds
at a time.Use a combination of the START and
the PULSE button until chopped or minced to the
desired consistency.
Leafy herbs
Wash and dry herbs thoroughly. Remove any
coarse stems.Process no more than 3 bunches
of herbs (approx. 5½ cups) at a time using the
PULSE button at 1–2 second intervals until
chopped to the desired consistency.
Use leafy herbs immediately for the most aromatic
results in your recipe.
Nuts
Process no more than 5 cups of shelled nuts
at a time using the PULSE button at 1–2 second
intervals until chopped to the desired consistency.
Nut butters
Process no more than 5 cups of shelled roasted
nuts at a time using the START button until
chopped to the desired consistency.
Soft breadcrumbs
Break stale bread into chunks (fresh bread will
stick to blades). Process no more than 6–8 slices
at a time with the processing bowl, using the
PULSE button at 1–2 second intervals until
crumbed to desired consistency.
Dried breadcrumbs
Tear bread into chunks and toast in oven until
golden and crisp. Do not over brown. Process no
more than 6–8 slices at a time with the processing
bowl, using the PULSE button at 1–2 second
intervals.
Biscuit crumbs
Break biscuits into quarters, and weigh a
maximum of 500g (2 standard packets). Process
using the PULSE button at 1–2 second intervals
until chopped to the desired consistency. Sweet
or savoury biscuit crumbs can be used as an
alternative to pastry for sweet or savoury pies.
Do not process very hard biscuits (for example
gingernut biscuits) as this may damage the blades.
Dried fruit
For dates and other larger dried fruits, remove pits
and cut into quarters before processing. Process
no more than 1 cup at a time.
Dried fruit can be sticky, and may stick to the
blades during processing.
We recommend putting dried fruit in the freezer for
about 10 minutes before processing. Process no
more than 2 cups (1 cup for large fruits) at a time
using the PULSE button at 1–2 second intervals
until chopped to the desired consistency.

15
EN
PURÉEING WITH THE QUAD®BLADE
The micro-serrated Quad blade purées raw and
cooked food to the consistency required, including
baby food. The blades process very eciently, and
cut the time needed to puree many tasks.
MIXING WITH THE QUAD®BLADE
The Quad blade mixes ingredients for cakes,
batters, and cookie doughs.
The Quad blade can also emulsify egg-based
sauces such as mayonnaise.
Pastry dough
Place our and chilled, cubed butter into the
processing bowl.
Do not process more than 3L cups (500g) of our
using the START / PAUSE button in intervals until
the butter is absorbed into the our.
Steadily add liquid through the small feed chute
with the motor still running.
Process until the mixture forms a ball.
KNEADING WITH THE
DOUGH BLADE
Always remember to place the dough blade into
the processing bowl before adding the food.The
edges of the plastic dough blade create a softer
action for combining dough ingredients.
The dough blade encourages the gluten strands
to be stretched rather than cut, and should be used
for all yeast doughs, and any other doughs that
require kneading.
Do not process more than 3 cups (500g) of our
or using the START / PAUSE button in intervals.
Steadily add liquid (including oil, if applicable)
through the small feed chute with the motor still
running. Process until the mixture until it forms
a soft, elastic dough ball.
If processing more than two batches of dough
(500g each), allow the motor base to cool for
an extended period (approx.30 min) before
subsequent kneading to prevent the motor from
overloading.
SLICING, GRATING
AND SHREDDING
IMPORTANT
The spindle must be used with both
the adjustable slicer and the reversible
shredder/grater.
Adjustable slicer
The adjustable slicer will slice food to an even
and consistent thickness.It can be adjusted
to 24 settings, from very ne (0.3mm) to thick
(8.0mm).To adjust the slicing thickness, hold the
adjustable slicing disc by the outer edge with one
hand, keeping hand away from blade, and turn the
adjustment dial on the underside with the other
hand. An arrow graphic indicates the thickness
of the slice you have chosen.
Reversible grater and shredder
This disc has an array of small blades on both
sides of the disc. Align the disc so larger holes face
up for courser textured results, or with the smaller
holes facing up for ner results. The discs are
labelled showing which side faces up.
CONTROLLING THE INGREDIENTS
For optimal results, position food in the chute and
use the pusher to apply light downward force prior
to starting the food processor.
Always use the small or medium size feed chute for
processing hard produces like pumpkin and sweet
potato. Feeding hard produces through the large
feed chute could cause damage to the discs.
Smaller ingredients
For long thin foods such as carrots, cucumbers,
zucchini, etc., use the small or medium feed chute.
This will avoid the ingredient from tipping over
during slicing.
Larger ingredients
Take care not to overll the chute, as the pusher
will not activate the interlock safety catch if the
chute is too full. Do not ll over the MAX CHUTE
FILL graphic.
Pressure
When processing, never force the food down the
chute as this can damage the discs.

16
Cheese
Caution should be taken when processing cheese
in a food processor. For soft cheese such as
mozzarella, partially freeze it until rm. This will help
prevent jamming the disc.
Round cheeses such as mozzarella should be
trimmed at one end to encourage them to sit at
in the feed chute with the disc starts.
Hard cheeses such as parmesan must be checked
rst to ensure they are not too hard (to avoid
damaging blade edges).The cheese should slice
easily with a sharp knife and remove the rind
before processing.
Wedged shaped cheeses such as parmesan can
be packed side by side to form a rectangular shape
in the chute.
Chocolate
Break a block of chocolate into small pieces,
and chill until rm. Pack into the small or medium
feed chute, and then shred.
WARNING
Oils in citrus rind can damage the bowl
and lid. When processing citrus rind
clean out bowl and lid immediately
after processing. Do not soak parts
in hot water.

Processing bowl and lid
Due to the interlock components, we do not
recommend immersing the bowl in water for long
periods.
To keep your bowl and lid clean, and to avoid food
drying on, follow these steps as soon as possible
after use:
• Rinse most of the ingredients o the bowl and lid.
• Hand wash in clean warm, soapy water using
a mild liquid detergent and non-abrasive sponge.
• The processing bowl and lid may occasionally
be washed in the dishwasher (top shelf only),
however washing in the dishwasher is not
recommended on a regular basis, as prolonged
exposure to harsh detergents, hot water and
pressure will damage and shorten the life of the
plastic and the interlock components.
Geared spindle and Food Pushers
• The large food pusher and geared spindle should
only be hand-washed.Do not place them into the
dishwasher.Washing the geared spindle in the
dishwasher will damage the spindle.
WARNING
Do not touch the
blades of the Dicing
Grid. They are
extremely sharp.
Blades and discs
• Blades and discs are razor sharp, do not touch.
Always use a spatula or brush to remove food or
when cleaning blades.
• Disc spindle, blades and discs can be washed
in the dishwasher.
Dicer
Use the dicer cleaning cap to clear out excess food
built up in the dicing grid after EACH USE or each
10 cups.
• Straight after dicing, remove the dicing disc from
the bowl while leaving the dicing grid inside the
bowl.
• Attach the cleaning cap to the bottom of the large
pusher.
• Align the markings on the cleaning cap with the
markings on the dicing grid, push down to clear
out the food in the grid.
• Repeat four times going around the grid until the
entire grid is cleared.

Stubborn food stains and odours
Strong smelling foods such as garlic, sh and
some vegetables such as carrots may leave an
odour or stain the bowl or lid.
To remove, pour warm soapy water and ll
to the MAX LIQUID mark. Set aside to soak for
5 minutes, without immersing the whole bowl.
Then wash with a mild detergent and warm water,
rise well and dry thoroughly. Store the bowl with
the lid o.
Storage
Place the large food pusher (with medium and
small pushers inserted) into the feed chute for
storage.
Store your food processor upright, with the bowl
and lid resting in position, but not locked. Locking
the bowl and lid can put unnecessary strain on the
safety interlock.
All accessories should be kept in the storage
container and out of the reach of children to avoid
accidental cuts.It is not recommended to store the
discs in a drawer with other utensils.
Do not place anything else on top of your food
processor during storage.
