A storage compartment beneath the frame stores two blades and the third blade comes already in place.

Three Blades for Versatility

Simple to Use

The slicer is very simple to use. Secure the slicer to a smooth working surface by pressing down on each corner. (Note : the rotating crank should face your left or right side. ) Attach one side of the vegetable or fruit to the small circular corer on the blade plate and gently press the prongs onto the opposite end. Use one hand to push the lever handle along while simultaneously turning the crank handle with the other hand.

Your vegetable or fruit can measure up to 10″ long and 7″ thick, and must be at least 1/2″ thick in diameter. Suggestions of vegetables and fruits to use are zucchini, carrots, cucumbers, sweet potatoes and apples. You can make long ribbons of cucumber and radishes for salads, apple spirals for apple slaw, sweet potatoes for curly sweet potato fries or use the straight blade for sweet potato chips!

This spiral slicer can be easily disassembled and washed under warm water with mild detergent or placed on the upper rack of a dishwasher. The blades should be removed and washed similarly. Be cautious when washing the blades, as they are very sharp and should not be touched directly. Note that the two blades can be stored in the storage compartment and the third blade can remain in place.

Additional tips :

1. Select vegetables that are at least 1/2″ in diameter
2. Make sure the feet are suctioned firmly by ensuring the table or counter surface is dry
3. Select vegetables that are relatively straight. Make sure that you trim enough off the ends of the vegetable or fruit to secure a firm hold onto the prongs
4. Remove the stored blades while in use, as remnants and juices from the sliced food will dirty them
5. Have a chopstick or any other long, narrow tool by your side to remove any remaining vegetable or fruit matter that gets stuck in the core of the cutting blade
6. The machine measures L 12″ X W 6″ X H 8 3/4″
