Cubes in 3 easy steps

Start at bottom and slide up for first cut

Once on top, make a 90° turn

Slide down for the second cut and release of cubes

USEFUL TIPS

1. Holding the sides of the transparent guard will release the pins and allow food to be properly secured under the hand guard.
2. Food should fit completely inside pusher; you may need to cut ends to do so. This will increase stability of food.
3. First cut may be harder; starting by the shorter side of vegetable may help.
4. When grating, turn thickness adjustment knob so that the platform is leveled with the grating blade.
5. Raw sweet potatoes being very hard and fibrous, we recommend caution. Cutting sweet potatoes require much more strength.
6. To turn julienne adjustment knob you must push cubing locking slider to the right until you hear a click to release the julienne blades.
7. You may cut in half longer foods such as carrot and cucumber, this will make self-feeding function easier.
8. To cut waffle chips, slice downward on the end of a potato with the wavy blade. Rotate the potato 90° and slice downward again. Repeat this process until the entire potato is sliced.

CLEANING

• Wash before first use.
• Pull out and turn thickness adjustment knob to storing position (rear platform adjusted to the highest position).
• All pieces are dishwasher safe.

STORAGE

When not in use and for storage

• Fold legs into base.
• Turn thickness adjustable knob (left dial) to storing position.
• Place storage box on top of mandoline by inserting the 2 tabs underneath the blade box into the top front notches of the slicer.

WARNING!

• Always use hand guards when in use. Never hold the food directly in your hand.
• Never insert thumb or fingers in self-feeding opening.
• Always use the small protective pusher to pressure down small food.
