Instructions For Use
A Fitting & removing the parts
1. Place the housing base on a flat, dry, stable surface.
2. Place the work bowl over the motor base with the handle facing forward and positioned
slightly to the left of the control panel (the bowl will slot onto the base).
3. Turn the bowl in an anticlockwise direction until it locks into position on the housing
base.
N.B. The work bowl must be securely locked into position. The bowl will be in the
correct position once the handle is central to the control panel.
4. Carefully lift the blade assembly, holding the central plastic stem and place over the
motor spindle. Push the blade down until it clicks into place. The lower part of the
blade assembly should almost touch the bottom of the work bowl.
N.B. Always hold the blade assembly from the plastic stem. Never touch the blade
as it is very sharp.
N.B. Never place the blade on the motor shaft until the work bowl is locked into
place.
N.B. Always insert the blade in the work bowl before adding ingredients.
5. Add the food you wish to process.
6. Place the lid on the work bowl with the small tab to the left of the work bowl handle.
Turn the cover anticlockwise (toward handle) to securely lock.
N.B. The work bowl and lid must be tightly locked into the interlock device. Once
securely fitted a loud click is heard. If both the work bowl and the lid are not
fitted securely the processor may work intermittently.
7. To remove the lid, hold the housing base with your left hand, securely grip the handle
on the top of the lid and rotate it in a clockwise direction.
N.B. Make sure the motor has completely stopped and the blade has stopped moving
before removing the lid.
ATTENTION: The lid must always be removed before fitting or removing the work
bowl from the base.
8. To remove the blade, gently pull up to disengage blade lock away from the motor
spindle holding the plastic stem.
9. To remove the work bowl, firstly ensure the lid has been removed. Hold the housing
base with your left hand, then hold the work bowl handle with your right hand and
turn in a clockwise direction to unlock and lift away from the housing base.

B. The dual blade
This appliance processes using a dual blade with a sharp, curved edge for chopping/mixing
and a flat, blunter edge for grinding.
C. Control switches
To start operation, simply press one of the two switches and hold down for the desired
length of time.
Use the ‘Chop’ speed switch for chopping, puréeing and mixing food with the sharp edge
of the blade.
Use the ‘Grind’ speed switch for grinding and for chopping hard food with the blunt edge
of the blade.
A ‘pulse’ action is best when you are using the sharp edge of the blade. Two or three
pulses are often enough. Ensure you check the food frequently to prevent over processing.
Over processing will result in a watery paste instead of a fine chop.
N.B. Due to the powerful motor provided with this unit, we recommend using one
hand to support the appliance during operation.
Continuous hold action is best when you are using the grind function. When you operate
the unit for more than 10 seconds, use a pulse action every 10 seconds or so to allow food
to drop to the bottom of the work bowl. This provides more consistent results.
IMPORTANT: Never operate the Mini Prep Pro continuously for longer than 20
seconds at a time.

D. Processing
1. Fit the work bowl and blade (refer to section A).
2. Place food in the work bowl. Ensure food is cut into small evenly sized pieces and the
work bowl is not overloaded.
3. Lock the lid into position.
4. Press the appropriate control switch i.e. ‘Chop’ or ‘Grind’, depending on the food you
are processing, for the required amount of time (refer to ‘Processing Techniques for
further details).
5. Wait for the blade to stop moving. Unplug the appliance and remove the lid work &
bowl.
N.B. The lid must always be removed before fitting or removing the work bowl from
the base.
6. To remove liquids and sauces from bowl, simply pour ingredients out of work bowl. The
BladeLock System keeps blade safely in place.
7. To remove thicker ingredients from bowl, carefully remove the blade assembly, holding
it by the top of the plastic central stem. Gently pull up to disengage blade lock and
remove blade from the work bowl. Remove food with a spatula.
Occasionally food will stick to the sides of the work bowl as you process. If this happens,
stop the appliance. After the blade has stopped moving, remove the lid and use the
spatula to scrape the food from the sides of the work bowl back into the centre. Do not
use your hand.
You can also reverse the motor by alternating between ‘Chop’ and ‘Grind’. This will help to
combine the ingredients and clean the sides of the work bowl.
N.B. Do not operate without food contents in the work bowl.

Processing Techniques
The following section includes useful hints and tips on how to use the Mini Prep Pro to
achieve a number of processing results. We recommend that you practice using these
techniques before processing food to eat.
N.B. Do not process frozen food in the processor.
12
For best results:
 
Always cut large pieces of food into smaller pieces of even size of approximately 1.5cm to
achieve even results.
  Use the sharp edge for chopping, puréeing and mixing. It is ideal for chopping softer
food such as herbs, celery, onions, garlic and most cheese. It is also useful for puréeing
cooked vegetables, making mayonnaise and mixing salad dressing.
  Use the blunt edge for grinding coffee beans and spices, and for chopping hard food
such as peppercorns, seeds, chocolate and nuts.
ATTENTION: Do not overload the work bowl. Overloading causes inconsistent results
and strains the motor. After being processed, food should not reach more than 2/3 of
the way up the central plastic stem of the blade assembly.
N.B. Please note that although the air capacity of the Mini Prep Pro is 900ml the
following maximum fill capacities apply for optimum use of the product:
700ml - mixture capacity
400ml - thin liquid capacity
A. Chopping fresh herbs:
The herbs, work bowl and blade must all be thoroughly cleaned and dried. Remove the
stems from herbs. Add the leaves to work bowl and process, using the ‘Chop’ switch and
a ‘pulse’ action until they are chopped to the desired consistency.
B. Chopping meat, poultry, fish & shellfish:
The food should be very cold but not frozen. Cut into 1.5cm pieces and place in the work
bowl. Use the ‘Chop’ switch and a ‘pulse’ action until the food is evenly chopped. Use a
continuous processing action for a few seconds for a finer chop if required. Use a spatula
to scrape food down from the sides of the work bowl as necessary.
C. Chopping nuts:
You can use either the ‘Chop’ or ‘Grind’ function depending on the consistency you require.
For roughly chopped nuts, process continuously using the ‘Chop’ switch until chopped to
the desired consistency. Check frequently to avoid nuts clumping together. If necessary,
use the spatula to re-distribute the nuts evenly in the work bowl. If you require more of
a powder consistency use the ‘Grind’ function continuously until the desired consistency
is achieved.
D. Producing a purée:
Cut the food into 1.5cm pieces and place in the work bowl. Use the ‘Chop’ switch and a
‘pulse’ action to chop coarsely, then process continuously until food is puréed.
N.B. Cooked potatoes are an exception to this procedure. They develop a gluey
texture when processed with the metal blade.
13
E. Grinding coffee beans and hard foods:
Add coffee or hard food to the work bowl. Use the ‘Grind’ switch and process using a
continuous action until desired consistency is reached. Coffee beans may take slightly
longer to process, so use a pulse action every 10 seconds or so to allow the beans to drop
to the bottom of the work bowl.
F. Adding liquid:
You can add liquids such as water, oil or flavouring while the appliance is running. Pour
the liquid through one of the two openings in the lid.
N.B. Add liquid through only one opening at a time. The other opening must be left
free for air to circulate.
Troubleshooting
Motor does not start or blade does not rotate:
Check that the plug is securely inserted into the mains.
Check that the work bowl and lid are securely locked into place (see section A for more
information).
Ensure only one control switch is being pressed at a time.
Food is unevenly chopped:
Either you are chopping too much food at one time, or the pieces are too large. Try cutting
food into smaller pieces of an even size and processing a smaller amount per batch.
Food is chopped too fine or is watery:
The food has been over-processed. Use brief pulses or process for a shorter period of time.
Food collects on lid or sides of work bowl:
You may be processing too much food. Turn the appliance off. When the blade stops
moving remove the lid and clean the work bowl and lid with the spatula. You can also
reverse the motor by alternating between ‘Chop’ and ‘Grind’. This will help to combine the
ingredients and clean the sides of the work bowl.
Food gets stuck on blade:
You may be processing too much food. Turn the appliance off. When the blade stops
moving, carefully remove it. Remove food from the blade and work bowl using a spatula,
and start again.
14
Cleaning Maintenance&
  When not in use, leave the appliance unplugged.
  All parts except the housing base are dishwasher safe. We recommend washing them
in the dishwasher on the top rack. Due to intense water heat, washing the work bowl,
lid and accessories on the bottom rack may cause damage over time. Insert the work
bowl upside down.
  If you wash the blade by hand, wash with extreme care, the blade is very sharp. Do not
leave it in soapy water where it may disappear from sight.
  Take extra care when loading and unloading the blade in the dishwasher.
  To simplify cleaning, rinse the work bowl, lid and blade immediately after use so food
won’t dry on them.
  Chopping certain foods may scratch, cloud or discolour the work bowl.
  Do not use abrasive cleaners on the housing base. Simply wipe with a damp cloth and
dry thoroughly.
  Apply any cleaning agent to the cloth, not the housing base.
  Always ensure the blades have been thoroughly cleaned after each use and have dried
completely before storing.
