5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Dicing Vegetables/Fruits

1. Prepare your food: Peel fruits and vegetables with thick skin (e.g., cucumbers, carrots). Remove stems and trim ends. Cut larger items into pieces that fit onto the blade grid.
2. Place the prepared food onto the center of the selected dicer blade.
3. Firmly and quickly press down the chopper lid. The food will be pushed through the blades and collected in the container below.
4. Repeat until all food is diced.

5.2 Spiralizing Vegetables

1. For spiralizing, ensure the ribbon or spiral blade is securely installed.
2. Insert a firm, cylindrical vegetable (e.g., zucchini, carrot) into the spiralizer opening.
3. Apply gentle pressure while twisting the vegetable clockwise. The spiralized ribbons or noodles will fall into the collection container.
4. Use the spiked grip at the other end of the vegetable for better control as it shortens.

6. Cleaning and Maintenance

Proper cleaning and maintenance will extend the life of your Fullstar Chopper.

• Dishwasher Safe: All parts of the Fullstar Original Pro Chopper and its attachments are dishwasher safe. Place them on the top rack for best results.
• Hand Washing: For hand washing, use warm, soapy water.
• Removing Stuck Debris: Use the provided cleaning brush for hard-to-reach areas and stuck food. For the spiralizer blades, the brush is particularly useful. Do not use the brush on the dicer blades as it may damage them.
• Disassembly for Cleaning: To thoroughly clean the top rack of the chopper, push inside the locks and separate the parts. To reassemble, hold the locks down and push the parts back together until they click.
• Ensure all parts are completely dry before storing to prevent rust or damage.

7. Troubleshooting

• Food not dicing properly: Ensure the food item is cut to a size that fits the blade grid. Apply firm and quick pressure. Very hard vegetables may require more force or pre-cutting.
• Blades seem dull: The blades are made of rust-resistant 420 stainless steel and are designed to stay sharp. If performance degrades, ensure no food debris is lodged in the blades.
• Difficulty cleaning: Utilize the provided cleaning brush for hard-to-reach areas and stuck food. For dicer blades, use the cleaning fork to push out trapped pieces.
