Setup
- Unpacking: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or shipping.
- Cleaning: Before first use, wash all removable parts (bowl, lid, blades, and discs) in warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely. The base unit should be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
- Assembly:
- Place the food processor base on a stable, flat, and dry surface.
- Carefully place the 6-quart Lexan® polycarbonate bowl onto the motor base, ensuring it clicks securely into place.
- Insert the desired blade or disc onto the motor shaft inside the bowl. For the S-blade, ensure both pieces are properly aligned.

Operating Instructions
The Waring Commercial FP2200 is designed for continuous feed operation, allowing for high-volume processing. Always ensure the unit is properly assembled and locked before starting.
- Preparation: Cut food into pieces that fit easily into the feed chute. Do not overload the chute.
- Loading: For continuous feed, place food into the large feed chute. For batch processing with the S-blade, add ingredients directly into the bowl before securing the lid.
- Operation:
- Turn the unit ON using the control panel.
- For continuous feed, use the food pusher to guide ingredients through the feed chute. Apply even pressure. The 22 square inches of feed space accommodates larger items.
- For tasks like chopping, pureeing, or emulsifying with the S-blade, use the PULSE function for controlled processing or the ON setting for continuous blending until desired consistency is achieved.
- Stopping: Turn the unit OFF when processing is complete or when changing blades/discs. Wait for all moving parts to stop before opening the lid or removing the bowl.
