3-PART FOOD PUSHER
3-PART FOOD PUSHER:
The 3-part food pusher separates into small, medium, and large food pushers to guide ingredients through the different-sized feed chute openings. Use the small feed chute opening (which also doubles as a measuring cup) for ingredients like carrots, the medium feed chute for ingredients like cucumbers and zucchini, and the large feed chute for ingredients like potatoes.
NOTE: As a safety feature, the large food pusher must be inserted in the feed chute for the unit to run. DO NOT exceed the CHUTE MAX FILL line on the large feed chute. The unit will not run if ingredients exceed this line.
DISC ASSEMBLIES
ADJUSTABLE SLICING:
The adjustable slicing disc allows you to customize the slice thickness (0.3–8mm). Great for mushrooms, zucchini, cucumbers, and potatoes. The disc has 8 main settings with
1/3–mm micro settings between each (for a total of 24 individual settings) ranging from 0.3mm–8mm.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the disc is NOT on the S (storage) setting before installing it. Return disc to S position after use.
DISC SPINDLE:
Install the disc spindle onto the gear shaft of the Precision Processor® Bowl to use the disc assemblies or 4.5 Cup Nesting Workbowl.
