- Attaching the Chopping Bowl: Place the mini blade system into the chopping bowl. Position the lid onto the chopping bowl, ensuring it is properly seated. Then, align the motor body with the opening on the chopping bowl lid and push down until it clicks into place.

Operating Instructions
General Operation

Using the Immersion Blending Shaft
Ideal for milkshakes, smoothies, cocktails, soups, dips, and baby food.
- Attach the immersion blending shaft to the motor body.
- Immerse the blending shaft into the ingredients. The 8-inch immersion depth allows blending directly in tall pots or containers. The non-scratch base protects cookware.
- Press the trigger button to start blending. The unique anti-suction technology and internal ribbing reduce suction and fold food onto the blades for thorough blending without excessive up-and-down movement.

Using the Chopping Bowl
Suitable for chopping onions, fresh herbs, meats, nuts, cheese, ice, and crumbling cookies.
- Place the mini blade system in the chopping bowl and add ingredients. Ensure ingredients are cut into similar sizes and do not exceed the MAX line.
- Secure the lid and attach the motor body.
- Use short pulses by pressing and releasing the trigger button to chop ingredients to the desired consistency. Avoid over-processing.
- For added stability, the chopping bowl can be placed inside the 42oz jug, allowing you to hold the jug's handle while chopping.

- Attach the whisk to the whisk attachment base, then attach the motor body.
- Immerse the whisk into the ingredients.
- Gently turn up the speed to the highest setting (15) and raise and lower the whisk until the desired consistency is achieved. Avoid hitting the edges of the bowl.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Breville BSB510XL, consider the following common solutions:
- Appliance not turning on: Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Check if the motor body is correctly attached to the desired accessory.
- Inconsistent blending/chopping: Ensure ingredients are cut into similar, manageable sizes. Do not overfill the chopping bowl or jug. Adjust speed settings as needed.
