EASY SOLUTION
•
Ingredients should be cut evenly into 1 inch pieces before processing.
•
Ingredients should be processed in batches to avoid overloading.
•
Place evenly cut food into the feed chute.
•
Apply pressure, then start the machine.
•
The large feed chute must be packed full for best results.
If processing smaller quantities, place items to the far left in the feed chute,
or use a smaller feed chute, depending on the food size.
•
Always clear any blocked potato before processing more potatoes.
•
It is normal for small pieces to remain after processing.
•
Amount of dough must not exceed maximum recommended quantity on the recipe.
Remove half and process in two batches.
•
Dough may be too dry. If motor speeds up, continue processing.
If not, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time until the motor speeds up. Process until
dough cleans the side of the processing bowl.
•
Amount of dough may exceed food processor maximum capacity.
Remove half and process in two batches.
•
Dough may be too dry.
•
Stop machine, carefully remove dough, divide it into 3 pieces and redistribute them
evenly in the processing bowl.
•
Divide dough into 2 or 3 pieces and redistribute evenly in processing bowl. Process
10 seconds or until uniformly soft and pliable. Allowing dough to rest allows the gluten
strands to relax and become more pliable.
•
While machine is running, add water through the small feed chute, 1 tablespoon
at a time until dough clears the inside of the processing bowl.
•
While machine is running, add flour through the small feed chute, 1 tablespoon
at a time until dough clears the inside of the processing bowl.
•
There is a safety interlock switch to prevent the motor from starting if it is not properly
assembled. Make sure the processing bowl and lid are securely locked into position.
Make sure the Main bowl is positioned such that its handle is pointing towards the user.
•
The food content in the feed chute should be below the maximum fill line.
•
If the motor still will not start, check the power cord and power outlet.
