down, place the assembly over the center hub. It should fit snugly and rest on the bottom of the work bowl. 5. Place work bowl cover onto work bowl, with the handle area just to the left of center .
• Before you do anything, wait for the blade to stop spinning. Once it does, remove the pusher assembly . Then turn the cover clockwise to unlock and remove by lifting it off.

T o chop parsley and other fresh herbs: The herbs, the work bowl and the metal chopping blade must all be thoroughly clean and dry .
10 smooth. Add any liquid ingredients last, while the processor is running, and process just long enough to blend. Process ingredients for spreads and dips the same way . They should be at room temperature and cut into 1-inch (2.5cm) cubes, or added by tablespoonfuls.
chop them first while the work bowl is clean and dry , then set aside until needed. Put dry ingredients like flour , salt and leavening in the work bowl and process with the metal blade for 5 seconds to mix.
not so tightly that it prevents the pusher from moving. When slicing or shredding, always use the pusher . Never put your fingers or a spatula into the feed tube. Never push down hard on the pusher .

touch but easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. Stand the pieces in the feed tube and apply light pressure to the pusher . IMPORT ANT : Never try to slice soft cheese like mozzarella or hard cheese like Parmesan. Y ou may damage the slicing disc or the food processor itself.
Processing dry ingredients: Put the flour in the work bowl with all the other dry ingredients. If the recipe calls for herbs, oil or solid fats like butter , add them with the flour . T urn the machine on and let it run for about 20 seconds. (Cheese, nuts and raisins may be added with the dry ingredients or during the final kneading.
remaining liquid slowly . Pour liquid onto dough as it passes under feed tube; do not pour liquid directly onto bottom of work bowl. Blade rises in work bowl: Blade may not have been pushed down as far as possible before processing started. Excessively sticky dough can cause blade to rise even though it cleans inside of work bowl.
TYPICAL SWEET DOUGH PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS Motor slows down: • Amount of dough may exceed maximum capacity . Remove half, and process in 2 batches. • Don’t process too long after all ingredients are incorporated. Rich doughs will give you good results after only 30 seconds of kneading.
T o clean the inside of the detachable stem, slide the stem release button on the side up as far as it will go and hold it there as you run water through the stem. IMPORT ANT : Never store any blade or disc on the motor shaft. No blade or disc should be placed on the shaft except when the processor is about to be used.
