POLARIZED  
This appliance has a polarized plug—one  
PLUG  
blade is wider than the other. To reduce the  
risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into a  
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug  
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse it. If  
it still does not fit, contact a qualified elec-  
trician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety  
feature by modifying the plug in any way.

Figure A  
2. Grasp the Bowl firmly and place it on the  
Base. Line up the Locking Tabs on the Bowl  
and the Base and turn clockwise until the  
Bowl locks into place. (Figure A)  
3. Slide the Knife Blade down over the  
shaft. Be careful not to touch the Blade as it  
is extremely sharp.  
4. Place the Lid on the Bowl, with the  
Extended Tab on the same side as the Base  
Slot. Turn the Lid clockwise into the Base  
Slot as far as it will go.

NOTE: For your protection this unit has a Lid  
interlock system. The unit will not operate  
unless the Extended Tab is correctly locked  
into the Base Slot. Do not attempt to oper-  
ate the unit without the Lid being correctly  
placed.  
TO USE  
1. Place food in Bowl.  
The HandyChopper™  
Mincer/Chopper is  
designed to process  
about 1/2 cup of dry  
food at a time. (See  
“Chopping Guide”,  
page 10.) Larger  
amounts should be  
processed in small  
batches.  
2. Place the Lid on the  
Bowl, with the  
Figure B  
Extended Tab on the  
same side as the  
Base Slot. Turn the  
Lid clockwise into the  
Slot as far as it will  
go. (Figure B)

3. Depress the  
Pulse/On Button for a  
few seconds. Be  
careful not to over-  
process as most  
foods process in less  
than 6 seconds.  
(Figure C)  
NOTE: The longer the  
processing cycle, the  
finer the consistency.  
For coarsely chopped  
foods, use repeated  
short pulse action  
Figure C  
until the proper con-  
sistency is reached.  
If the Chopper does  
not operate, review  
the “To Use” proce-  
dure. Check to be  
sure the Locking Tabs  
on the Bowl and the  
Extended Tab on the  
Lid are properly posi-  
tioned.

toc  
4. Be sure the Blade has stopped turning  
completely before removing the Lid or plac-  
ing a spatula in the unit.  
5. Lift the Blade straight up by the Blade  
Shaft and move it away from you before  
emptying the contents of the Bowl.  
6. Use a spatula to remove the processed  
food from the unit.  
It is a good idea to wash out the Bowl, Knife  
Blade, and Lid immediately after usage  
either with warm, sudsy water or in the  
dishwasher. Wipe off the Base with a damp  
cloth - do not immerse in liquid.  
The Bowl, Knife Blade, and Lid are all dish-  
washer-safe.  
CARE  
AND  
CLEANING  
Your HandyChopper™ Mincer/Chopper will  
always be ready to use whether you leave it  
sitting on a countertop or store it in a draw-  
er. When the unit is not in use, leave it  
unplugged. Since the Knife Blade is  
STORAGE  
extremely sharp, store it safely in the unit.
