Tips for using the Maruchi Chopper.

• Cut food into a maximum of 1-2cm chunks.
• Continual chopping of hard foodstuffs like coffee beans, large seeds or ice may damage or dull the coaxial blades.
• Always place lid on bowl prior to use.
• Always ensure the motor body is secured in place.
• When chopping select from buttons I or II
• Use I for softer foods or where slower speed is required;
• Use II where harder foods or faster chopping is required;
• Use II when larger quantities of food are being processed.

Note: For precise results, pulse your ingredients. To pulse, press I for 1-2 seconds, then release for 1 second. This allows you to monitor results and deliver the food consistency you desire.

Prolong the life of your unit. Only use the chopper in intervals of 15 seconds or less and never use the chopper for a total operating time longer than 3 minutes.

After 3 minutes use, allow a period of 5 minutes for chopper motor to cool down.

Assemble the dual blade by interlocking the two individual blade sections together.  

• Take the smaller (top) blade by the safety guard and slide down over the shaft of the main (bottom) blade. 
• Lift the unit by the shaft and carefully grip the safety area beneath the bottom blade. Grip the top blade by its safety area. Keeping the bottom blade secure, rotate the top blade ¼ turn anti-clockwise to secure the two blades. You will feel a ‘click’ when the two blades interlock successfully. 
• The dual blade is now assembled and ready to be used in your Heroshi bowls. 

Note: There are black covers on the blades, these protect both the blades and your fingers. They will need to be removed before using the unit. Be careful with the blades, they are sharp. 

The Heroshi Maruchi Chopper bowls (glass and stainless steel) have an internal shaft for the dual blades.

To attach the dual blade simply slide over the top of the bowls shaft. The blade will be secured by the glass lid and the Maruchi Chopper.

Note: The aerating whisk works in the same way, slide over the top of the shaft to attach and simply slide off again to remove.
