13.  Operate appliance only when all parts are fully engaged and tightened.

14.  To reduce risk of injury and damage to appliance keep hands, hair, clothing 

and utensils away from moving parts during operation.

15.  NEVER feed appliance by hand, always use the PUSHROD.

16.  Place appliance on flat and steady support surface when ready for use.

17.  Remove all packaging and wash parts before using the first time.

18.  Do not use fingers to scrape food away from discharge disc while appliance is 

operating. Cut type injury may result.

Polarized Plug: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the 

other). To reduce risk of electric shock, plug is intended to fit into polarized outlet 

only one way.  If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still  

does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not try to modify the plug in any way.
Short Cord Instructions: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the 

risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension 

cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.  If an extension cord is used, 

the marked electrical rating of the cord should be at least as great as the electrical 

rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not 

drape over the tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over 

unintentionally.
