ASSEMBLY
BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using your Sage® food processor, become familiar with all the parts. Remove all packaging materials and promotional labels, being careful when handling the processing blades and discs as they are very sharp. Wash the processing bowl, processing lid and other attachments in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. (Refer to cleaning, care and storage section).
-
Place the motor base on a dry, level work surface. Place the processing bowl on to the motor base with the handle in line with the ALIGN HANDLE graphic on the motor base.
-
Turn the processing bowl clockwise until the handle aligns with the TURN TO LOCK graphic. The processing bowl should be securely locked into position.
-
If using a disc, first assemble the disc spindle onto the bowl drive coupling. Orientate the disc so that the side you wish to use is facing upwards. Hold the disc by the centre plastic moulding and position the central hole above the attachment spindle. Push down firmly until fitted correctly.
(Please note that these discs only fit the larger processing bowl). -
For using the processing blades, carefully grasp either the 4 blade processor, dough blade or mini processing blade using the central plastic support and position it over the bowl drive coupling and push down until inserted correctly. If using the mini processing blade, ensure the mini processing bowl is assembled into the main bowl first.
-
Place the processing lid onto the processing bowl so the feed chute is slightly right of the bowl handle and the arrow graphics are aligned .
Holding the feed chute and pressing down firmly at the same time, turn the lid clockwise (as indicated by the graphic) so the ‘Locking Tab’ on the lid slots into the ‘Interlocking Safety Catch’ on the handle. The lid should be securely locked into position. NOTE
The food processor will not operate unless both the processing bowl and lid are correctly locked into position.
CAUTION
The processing blade (including the mini bowl blade) and discs are extremely sharp, handle with care at all times. -
Insert the power plug into a 220–240 volt
power outlet and switch the power
outlet on. -
At the end of processing, always wait until the blades or discs have stopped spinning before unlocking and removing the lid.
To remove the processing lid, ensure the POWER / OFF button has been pressed, the power is switched off at the power outlet and the cord is unplugged from the power outlet. Holding the feed chute and pressing down firmly at the same time, turn the lid anti-clockwise so that the arrow graphics are no longer aligned. -
Remove the processing bowl (before removing blade or discs) by turning it anti-clockwise until the handle is in line with the ALIGN HANDLE. Lift the bowl off the motor shaft. When removing the discs – carefully remove by gripping the plastic hub on the centre of the disc and lifting the disc up and away from the pin on the spindle.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION SYSTEM
If the motor overloads, the food processor will go to STANDBY mode and
OVERLOAD icon in the LCD starts to flash. The food processor can still be
switched off by pressing the POWER / OFF button. To operate the food processor
again, allow the machine to cool for approx 30 minutes.
Some stiff mixtures, such as dough, may cause the dough blade to rotate more
slowly than normal. If this happens, do not process for longer than 1 minute.

CARE, CLEANING & STORAGE
CARE AND CLEANING
When finished processing, switch the food processor off at the power outlet
and unplug the power cord.
Motor base
Wipe the motor base with a clean, damp cloth after each use. Dry thoroughly
with a soft, clean cloth.
Processing bowl, lid and food pusher
Hand wash in hot, soapy water using a mild detergent. Do not use a scourer or
abrasive cleaners as they will scratch the plastic surface.
The plastic parts may occasionally be washed in the dishwasher (top shelf
only). It is not recommended on a regular basis, as prolonged exposure to hot
water temperatures and harsh detergents will damage and shorten the life of
the plastic.
NOTE
Do not place food pusher in the dishwasher as the heat may deform it.
Processing 4 blade processor, dough blade and discs
Hand wash the bowl and lid. Use the cleaning brush accessory to scrub stubborn
foods off the blades and discs. The handle end of the brush is designed for
scraping.
To avoid accidental cuts, do not leave 4 blade processor or discs to soak in
sudsy water. The 4 blade processor, dough blade, discs and spindle can also be
washed in the dishwasher (top shelf only).
NOTE
The 4 blade processor cover can be assembled onto the 4 blade processor while
it is placed in the dishwasher for added safety.
WARNING
- The 4 blade processor, mini and adjustable processing blades and discs are extremely sharp, handle with care at all times.
- Never immerse the motor base, power cord or power plug in water or any other liquid.
- Never store your food processor with the bowl fixed and lid locked into position. Doing so will cause unnecessary strain on the auto operating switch on the handle of the processing bowl and the automatic safety switch on the motor base.
- Do not put any part of the food processor in the microwave oven.
TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM | EASY SOLUTION |
---|---|
Food is unevenly processed | • Ingredients should be cut evenly into |
2.5cm pieces before processing.
• Ingredients should be processed in batches to avoid overloading.
Slices are slanted or uneven| • Load food in feed chute. Place pusher
onto food and apply pressure. Then press start.
Food falls over in the feed chute| • The large feed chute must be
packed full for best results. If processing smaller quantities, use the small
feed chute.
Chipper disk| • Always clear any blocked potato from the chipper disc
before processing more potatoes.
Some food remains on the disc after processing| • It is normal for
small pieces to remain after processing.
Motor slows down when mixing dough| • Amount of dough may exceed
maximum capacity. Remove half and process in two batches.
• Dough may be too wet (see next page). If motor speeds up, continue processing. If not, add more flour, 1 tablespoon
at a time until the motor speeds up. Process until dough cleans the side of the processing bowl.
Motor slow to start with the 4 blade processor| • The amount of meat may have exceed the maximum capacity. Refer to the Instruction Booklet for maximum quantities. Remove the meat and process in two batches.
• Note that for best results trim the meat of fat before processing.
The motor does not start| • There is a safety interlock switch to prevent the motor from starting if it is not properly assembled. Make sure the processing bowl, lid and the pusher are securely locked into position.
• If you are slicing or shredding and the above solution does not work, make sure that the food contents in the feed chute are cut below the maximum fill line so that the activation rod can engage the motor.
• If the motor still will not start, check the power cord and power outlet.
PROBLEM | EASY SOLUTION |
---|---|
The food processor shuts off during operation | • The lid may have become |
unlocked, check to make sure it is securely in position.
• If the motor overloads, the ‘OVERLOAD’ icon in the LCD will start to flash. Switch off by pressing the POWER / OFF button and unplug the power cord. Allow the food processor to cool for 20–30 minutes before resuming.
The motor slowed down during operation| • This is normal as some heavier loads may require the motor to work harder. Reposition the food in the feed chute and continue processing.
• The maximum load capacity may have been exceeded. Refer to the Instruction Booklet for maximum quantities. Remove some of the ingredients and continue processing.
The food processor vibrates/moves during processing| • Make sure the
rubber feet at the bottom of the unit are clean and dry. Also make sure that
the maximum load capacity is not being exceeded.
Dough doesn’t fully incorporate ingredients| • When kneading dough,
always start the food processor before adding liquid. Add liquid in a slow,
steady stream, allowing the dry ingredients to absorb it. If too much liquid
is added, wait until ingredients in the processing bowl have mixed, then add
remaining liquid slowly (do not turn off the machine). Pour liquid onto the
dough as it passes under the feed chute opening, do not pour liquid directly
onto the bottom of the processing bowl.
Dough feels tough after kneading| • Divide dough into 2 or 3 pieces
and redistribute evenly in processing bowl. Process 10 seconds or until
uniformly soft and pliable.
Dough is too dry| • While machine is running, add water through the
small feed chute, 1 tablespoon at a time until dough cleans the inside of the
processing bowl.
Dough is too wet| • While machine is running, add flour through the
small feed chute, 1 tablespoon at a time until dough cleans the inside of the
processing bowl.
