Remove the rind before slicing or shredding, if desired. Whole peppers are an exception Remove the stem and cut the stem end flat. Remove the core and scoop out the seeds. Leave the end opposite the stem whole, to keep the structure stiff. Large fruits like pineapple Cut the ends flat, cut in half and either core or remove the seeds. If necessary, cut the halves into smaller pieces to fit the feed tube. Cabbage and iceberg lettuce Turn the head on its side and slice off the top and bottom, leaving a center section about 3 inches (8cm) deep. Remove the core, then cut in wedges to fit the feed tube. Remove the core from the bottom and top pieces and cut into wedges to fit into the feed tube. The optional 2mm and 1mm Slicing Discs are excellent for slicing cabbage for coleslaw. If the fruit or vegetable doesn't fit, try inserting it from the bottom of the feed tube, where the opening is slightly larger. For long slices or shreds, cut the food in feed tube widths and pack the pieces horizontally. For small, round slices or short shreds from carrots, zucchini and other long vegetables, cut in feed tube heights and pack tightly upright. Food should fit snugly, but 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. Use light pressure for soft fruits and vegetables like bananas, mushrooms, strawberries and tomatoes, and for all cheeses. Use medium pressure for most food: apples, celery, citrus fruit, potatoes and zucchini. Use firm pressure for hard vegetables like carrots and yams. PREPARING FOOD FOR SLICING AND SHREDDING For disc assembly instructions, refer to Assembly Instructions. Round fruits and vegetables Before processing onions, apples and other large, PRACTICING SLICING AND SHREDDING 1. Insert a slicing or shredding disc, put the cover on the work bowl, and insert the food in the feed tube.
