5. Operating Instructions

The RAF Food Processor & Meat Chopper R.7019 features two speed settings for versatile processing.

1. Prepare Ingredients: Cut larger food items into smaller, uniform pieces (approximately 2-3 cm) to ensure even processing. Remove bones from meat and hard seeds from fruits.
2. Load the Bowl: Follow the assembly steps in Section 4. Do not overload the bowl. For best results, process smaller batches if necessary.
3. Select Speed:
   • Press button "I" for lower speed, suitable for softer ingredients or coarse chopping.
   • Press button "II" for higher speed, ideal for harder ingredients, fine chopping, or blending.
4. Process: Press and hold the desired speed button. For optimal control and to prevent over-processing, use short pulses rather than continuous operation. Release the button to stop.
5. Check Consistency: Periodically check the consistency of your ingredients. If needed, scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula (after unplugging and removing the motor unit and lid) to ensure even processing.
6. Unload: Once processing is complete, release the speed button and unplug the appliance. Carefully remove the motor unit, then the lid. Remove the blade assembly before emptying the bowl. Caution: Blades are very sharp.
