IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including these:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
3. Your Waring®food processor is a piece of kitchen equipment, and like all other kitchen
equipment, extreme care must be used when operating it. Although training requirements
are minimal, only responsible and prudent individuals should be allowed to operate this
food processor. It should not be used by or near children or individuals with certain disabilities.
4. To avoid injury, never place cutting blade or disc on base without first having put the bowl
properly in place.
5. Keep hands as well as spatulas and other utensils away from moving blades or discs while
processing food to prevent the possibility of severe personal injury or damage to the food
processor. A plastic scraper may be used, but must be used only when the food processor is
not running.
6. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put base in water or other liquids.
7. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, before removing
food from workbowl, and before cleaning. To unplug, grasp plug and pull from electrical outlet.
Never pull cord.
8. Avoid contact with moving parts. Never feed food by hand when slicing or shredding. Always use
food pusher.
9. Make sure motor has completely stopped before removing the cover.
10. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after appliance has been dropped
or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for
examination, repair or adjustment.
11. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by Waring may cause fire, electric shock
or injury.
12. Do not use outdoors.
13. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
14. This product is UL listed for commercial use. Use it only for food preparation as described
in this book.
15. Do not attempt to defeat the cover interlock mechanism.
16. Be certain cover is securely locked in place before operating appliance.
17. If the machine malfunctions for any reason, discard any food being processed at that time.

INTRODUCTION
The Waring Commercial®WFP11S and WFP14S commercial food processors are the most versatile
food processors in their class. They both feature a seal technology, unlike any other food processor
in the industry, that enables operation with large volumes of liquid, without the need to remove the
S-blade while pouring. These professional machines take advantage of Waring’s forty years of
commercial food service experience as well as thirty years of food processing experience by the same
technical, engineering, manufacturing and development teams that have made Waring Commercial the
best known name in food processors.
These machines are both ETL Sanitation and Commercial UL listed.
This instruction book describes two models. The WFP11S and WFP14S. Both come with a sealed
work bowl (also known as a batch bowl) and a sealed cutter blade (or S-blade) to CHOP, GRIND,
PURÉE or MIX in the batch bowl. WHAT MAKES THIS MACHINE UNIQUE IS THAT
THE BATCH BOWL ALSO ALLOWS YOU TO PROCESS ANYTHING IN THE BOWL,
INCLUDING LARGE VOLUMES OF LIQUIDS, which means you can SHRED, GRATE, SLICE,
PURÉE, LIQUIFY and MORE, directly in the bowl! The WFP11S and WFP14S are shipped from
our factory with a starter kit that includes a 4 mm (5⁄32") shredding disc, 4 mm (5⁄32") slicing disc and
2 mm (5⁄64") grating disc.
Many additional processing accessories are available for both models.
Size, power and convenience
The wide feed tube is convenient for large-volume processing of large foods; the motor shaft is
built for durability; the housing, work bowl, chute, covers and pushers are all made from durable
polycarbonate for heavy-use conditions and easy cleanup. The clear bowl and processing covers are
convenient for viewing food processing results, as well as extremely heavy duty for standing up to
daily use.

Two pushers for feed tube
Pick up the large food pusher and the small food pusher.
The large pusher is for processing larger vegetables. The smaller
pusher nests in the larger pusher and can be used for smaller
vegetables, guiding long thin vegetables for more precise cuts,
or for jobs like slicing pepperoni.
Large pusher
Insert the small food pusher into the large food pusher opening.
When it is fully inserted, rotate the small pusher clockwise to
lock it into place. Now you are ready to insert the large pusher
into the feed tube opening. Drop the pusher into the feed
tube gently.
Small pusher
To use the small pusher, rotate it counterclockwise to disengage
the locking feature. Now you can lift the small pusher up and
out of the large pusher. When using the small pusher, the large
pusher becomes the feed tube for the small pusher.

should be cut flat at both ends. This will provide a consistent slice for all food processed.
FOOD PUSHER SELECTION
S-blade usage
The feed tube can be used for adding ingredients while the food processor is running. However, it is
recommended that the food pushers be left in place whenever possible to prevent splashing and avoid
unwanted additions to the work bowl.
Small pusher
This pusher with smaller chute is typically used when inserting vegetables vertically for smaller cuts.
It should be used when slicing foods such as carrots, celery, pepperoni, etc. when a consistent, flat result
is desired.
This pusher is also used when a shorter grate or slice is desired as opposed to a longer grate or slice
using the larger feed tube and pusher.
Large pusher
This pusher with larger chute is typically used when inserting vegetables horizontally for longer cuts.
This pusher is used when a longer grate or slice is desired. It is also used when processing large
volumes of food or bulky food items such as potatoes or onions.
RESETTING THERMAL PROTECTION
The WFP11S & WFP14S Food Processors are equipped with an automatic reset switch to protect the
motor from overheating.
If your food processor stops running under heavy use, turn the power switch off and unplug the power
cord. Empty the work bowl of all its contents and discard. Allow approximately 5 minutes for the
motor to cool down.
Reassemble unit, plug the power cord back into the outlet and run first with the bowl empty. Put food
into the bowl and continue processing.

Chopping meat
Cut meat into 1-inch (25.4 mm) pieces to ensure an even chop. Process no more than 1 lb. meat (for
WFP11S) and 1.75 lb. meat (for WFP14S). Press the PULSE/OFF lever 3 or 4 times at a rate of 1
second on, 1 second off. If the food is not chopped fine enough, let the processor run continuously for
a few seconds. If the machine has trouble starting, reduce the amount of meat in the bowl and start
again.
Chopping hard cheese
Place up to 8 oz. (for WFP11S) and 3 cups (for WFP14S) of uniform 1-inch (25.4 mm) cubes of chilled
cheese into the bowl and pulse the machine with the PULSE/OFF lever. For powdered cheese, pulse
until the cheese is in small chunks (pea size), then allow the processor to run continuously until you
have fine powder. Cheese with high moisture content can ball up if processed too long.
Chopping onions, celery, cabbage, etc.
Cut onions in quarters, and other vegetables into 1-inch (25.4 mm) cubes. Place the cubed food into
the work bowl up to the top of the bowl’s inner tube, and pulse until you reach the desired consistency.
Note: If you let the blade run too long, the ingredients on the bottom will become puréed or give
you uneven results.
Purée or Mix
To purée tomatoes, vegetables and fruits, make sauces, or mix and blend ingredients, place the
ingredients into the bowl, turn the unit on and allow it to run continuously until you reach the
desired consistency. Do not let the machine run unattended. If your recipe exceeds more than
10 cups of wet ingredients, please process in several batches.
Do not fill liquid past “Max liquid fill” line.

Removing processed food from the batch bowl
1. Turn the machine off and wait for the blade to stop moving before removing the lid and pusher.
2. If the blade holds the bowl locked when the motor stops, move the handle of the bowl rapidly
back and forth – first clockwise, then counterclockwise.
3. If using a disc, remove before tilting the bowl, using a spatula to scrape off any food sticking to it.
If using S-blade, it will stay locked in the bowl when you tilt to pour. Use spatula to scrape food
out of bowl. NEVER USE FINGERS TO REMOVE FOOD WHILE BLADE IS IN BOWL.

CLEANING
Clean the food processor and accessories prior to initial use and after each use. Do not use harsh
abrasive-type cleaners on any part of the food processor. Cleaning must follow NSF guidelines.
Wash the motor shaft with a small brush.
Wash, rinse, sanitize and dry the bowl, cover, small food pusher, large food pusher, accessory discs, and
S-blade prior to initial use and after use, unless they will be used again immediately. These
items are all dishwasher-safe, and may be cleaned and rinsed in the dishwasher instead of manually
in the sink.
Wash and rinse all of the above items after each use.
The bowl cover has a black seal around its outer rim that is easily removable for cleaning and should
be cleaned periodically. There are three small holes on the outer lip of the top of the cover for pushing
the seal out. Use a small, dull object like a toothpick or paper clip, to push the seal downward and out
of the groove. DO NOT USE ANYTHING SHARP THAT CAN CUT THE SEAL. Hand wash
with warm soapy water, rinse, and dry. To reassemble, insert the clean and dry seal back in to groove
with your fingers, with the round edge at the top and the slotted edge at the bottom, facing in. Make
sure the seal is fully inserted and in proper position. Note picture below.
Note: The flap of the cover seal must be downward and the opening must face to center of cover.
A stiff bristle brush will help to knock food particles out of the crevices of the discs and blades before
washing. Handle very carefully as the blades are sharp.

For manual cleaning, it is recommended that you use washing solutions based on non-sudsing
detergents, and chlorine-based sanitizing solutions that have a minimum chlorine concentration
of 100 PPM. The following washing, rinsing, and sanitizing solutions, or their equivalents, may
be used:
SOLUTION PRODUCT DILUTION IN WATER TEMPERATURE
Washing *Ajax®Sanitizer ¼ oz. per Hot 115°F (46°C)
Cleaner Powder 2½ gallons
Rinsing Plain Water Warm 95°F (35°C)
Sanitizing **Clorox®1 tablespoon per Cold 50°F (10-21°C)
Institutional gallon
To clean and sanitize the motor base
Clean and sanitize the motor base prior to initial use and after each use. Unplug the unit, then
wipe down the exterior surfaces of the motor base with cloth or sponge dampened with a soluble
detergent. Next, wipe down with rinse water. Prevent liquid from running into the motor base by
wringing out all excess moisture from cloth or sponge before using it.
NEVER IMMERSE THE MOTOR BASE IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
Allow the unit to air-dry before using again.
Never use harsh abrasive-type cleaners on any part of the commercial food processor.
