Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Jonscook Safe Mandoline Slicer, please consider the following:
- Food Not Slicing Evenly: Ensure the food is properly centered in the chute and the thickness dial is set correctly. Apply consistent pressure with the food pusher.
- Difficulty Pushing Food: Some harder vegetables may require more effort. Ensure the blades are clean and free of debris. If the food is too large, cut it into smaller pieces that fit the chute.
- Slicer Not Stable: Verify that the tripod base is fully extended and the anti-slip suction cups are engaged on a clean, dry, flat surface.
