Coming with a two-year warranty, this Nemco 55050AN is durable and easy to use. It has a cast aluminum and stainless steel construction.

The Potato Kutter's front plate assembly is easy to change for different types of cuts. The preset drive depth ensures the potato holder doesn't come in contact with the blade.

Nemco designed this manual fry potato Kutter specifically to save your business time, energy, and money. Fresh potatoes take up less storage space than pre-packaged french fries and do not need to be stored in the refrigerator or freezer, saving valuable energy and space. It also saves your business costs associated with frying french-fries because fresh french fries are quicker to cook than frozen ones. The oil requires significantly less recovery time as well. The 55050AN Spiral Fry is designed to use the entire potato, including its skin, so none of it is wasted.

Maintenance Tips

• Clean after every use (essential): Disassemble and wash all food-contact parts with warm water and mild detergent. Dry completely to prevent corrosion and sticking.
• Avoid harsh cleaners: Minimize alkaline or abrasive cleaners—they can dull the finish and damage metal surfaces over time.
• Handle blades carefully: Blades are extremely sharp—always clean and reassemble with caution to avoid injury and edge damage.
• Inspect cutting components regularly: Check drive screw, blade assembly, and front plate for wear or misalignment to ensure smooth spiral cuts.
• Sharpen when needed: Stainless steel blades can be re-sharpened (except wavy cut types) to maintain clean, consistent cuts.
• Lubricate moving parts lightly: Apply food-safe mineral oil to guide rods or screw drive for smooth crank operation (prevents sticking).
• Secure mounting base: Ensure the unit is tightly fixed to the countertop or base to maintain stability during heavy use.
• Deep clean routine: Periodically fully disassemble for sanitation, especially in high-volume kitchens, to prevent hidden buildup.
