gasket and locking ring.

1. Before using the blender for the firsttime, it is recommended that theblender jar cover, closure/funnel andblade/base assembly, gasket andlocking ring be washed. Allcomponents, except the blade/baseassembly, are dishwasher safe.Remove the blade/base assembly fromthe blender:

First remove the locking ring, as shownin figure 6a and 6b. Then turn theblender over so that the base is facingupward, as shown in figure 7, andremove the blade assembly by turning

14

the blade assembly counterclockwiseuntil it stops and then lift up see figures7c and 7e.

Figure 6.

CAUTIONBlade/base assembly is very sharp.

Handle with care.

Figure 7.

If the blade assembly is too tight toturn by hand, the locking ring maybe used to loosen the blade assembly,as shown in figure 7d. After loosening,turn the blade assembly counter-clockwise until it stops and then lift up.The gasket may be removed forcleaning, as shown in figure 7f.

Wash the blade/base assembly underrunning water. Do not place the blade/base assembly in the dishwasher orallow it to stand in water. This will tendto wash out the lubricant. Aftercleaning, rinse thoroughly and drybefore using.

2. To assemble or reassemble blade/baseassembly into the blender, reverse thesteps that were used in the above toremove it.

3. The blender is used in mode 3, seetable 1. To place the blender on thepower unit the arm must be rotated tothe down position. Depress the releasebutton, see 4a, and lower the arm sothat the arm is vertical and the high-speed drive is straight up. If you havenot already done so, remove the motordrive cover from the high-speed driveand place the blender on the high-speeddrive and turn counterclockwise to lockthe blender in place.

Placing Blender into OperationMake sure that the power unit’s rotaryswitch is in the off position, “O/Off.” Pullthe electrical cord or unwind it to thenecessary length and then plug into thewall outlet. The blender is now ready foroperation.

Normally when blending, the blender jarshould be filled with the entire amount ofmaterial to be blended, if possible, beforeswitching the appliance to On. The coverand cover closure should always be in placeafter filling the blender jar and beforeswitching the power unit to On. Anysubsequent additions to the blendedmaterial should be made through the coveropening, see figure 8. For solids and/orgranular material, remove the cover closure/funnel to add the material, as shown infigure 8a. For liquids, the closure/funnelmay be left in place and the liquids can beadded by pouring them into the closure/funnel, see figure 8b.

When the blender is being used on drymaterials, such as nuts or bread, the bestresults will be obtained when the blenderjar is filled with approximately 1/2 cup ofmaterial to be blended. If the blender doesnot start (even after trying the highestspeed), the blade has become blocked bythe contents. The power unit should be:

1. Switched to off, “O/Off,” and unplugged.2. The mixture should be removed and the

contents at the bottom of the jarloosened.

Removing ContentsBefore beginning to remove the contentsfrom the blender, make sure that the powerunit has been turned to off position “O/Off.”Remove the blender from the power unit byturning the blender clockwise while lifting.With the blender removed from the powerunit, the contents of the blender may nowbe poured into a suitable container or bowl,as desired. Replace the cover on the high-speed drive.

Care and Cleaning of BlenderAll components of the blender, except theblade/base assembly, are dishwasher safe.It is recommended that the blade/baseassembly be cleaned only under flowingwater rather than in the dishwasher. Soapand detergent will tend to wash out thebearing lubricant of the blade/baseassembly. Do not use scouring cleaners onany of the blender parts.

The power unit of the kitchen machineshould be cleaned with a clean, damp clothonly. Never use coarse or caustic cleaningproducts to clean this appliance. Neverimmerse the power unit in water.

1. For long slices or long shreds, placefood into the feeding funnel lengthwise.

2. For short or circular slices, place foodin the feeding tube on end. Forexample, If you wish to have circularslices of zucchini or carrots:• cut to length not to extend above the

top of the feeding tube.• place the cut zucchini or carrots in

the feeding tube on end until thefeeding tube is packed.

To slice a single narrow item, a carrot forexample:• place the carrot in the feeding funnel

opposite the cutting edge of the disc.

The wall of the feeding funnel will then serveto hold the piece vertical.

When using the continuous shredder, besure to watch the level in the bowl and stopthe slicing, shredding or grating before thelevel of the material being sliced, shreddedor grated blocks the discharge tube.

Slicing and shredding tips:

1. Shopping for fruits and vegetables thatwill fit into the feeding funnel will simplifyfood preparation.

2. Foods that are to be used together maybe sliced together. This can be used toyour advantage. For example, greenonions and celery are often usedtogether, but feeding the green onionsinto the feeding funnel alone is difficult.Try slicing the green onions at the sametime as the celery by interspersingthem in the feeding funnel with thecelery.

3. Use the slicing disc to shred lettuce.
