4. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for safe and effective operation:

1. Prepare Produce: Wash and peel your fruits or vegetables as needed. For round items, it is recommended to cut them in half to create a flat surface for easier and safer slicing.
2. Wear Safety Gear: Put on the protective glove on your non-slicing hand. Secure the food item onto the prongs of the food holder/finger guard.
3. Position Food: Place the food holder with the attached produce onto the mandoline blade.
4. Slice/Grate: With firm, even pressure, slide the food holder down the mandoline track, moving the produce across the blade. Repeat until the desired amount is processed.
5. Collect Processed Food: The sliced or grated food will fall directly into the collection container below. Empty the container periodically to prevent overflow and maintain stability.

• 2mm Mandoline Slicer Blade: For thinner, more delicate slices.
