6. Operation

6.1 Using the Core Remover

1. Select a hawthorn or similar fruit.
2. Position the tip of the core remover at the stem end of the fruit.
3. Gently push and twist the core remover through the fruit to extract the core.
4. Discard the core and prepare the fruit for flattening.

6.2 Flattening Hawthorns

1. After coring, thread the hawthorns onto a skewer, leaving a small space between each fruit.
2. Carefully place the skewer with the fruits into the designated groove on the flattening machine's base. Ensure the fruits are aligned under the pressing plate.
3. Gently lower the pressing plate handle. Apply appropriate, even force to flatten the hawthorns. Avoid excessive force to prevent crushing.
4. Once flattened to your desired thickness, lift the pressing plate handle to release the pressure.
5. Remove the skewer with the flattened hawthorns.
6. Repeat the process for additional fruits.
