Maintenance Tips
  • Clean immediately after each use to prevent food drying in blade assembly and frame gaps
  • Disassemble pusher, handle assembly, bumpers, and blade holder for full cleaning access
  • Wash all parts with warm water + mild detergent; avoid alkaline cleaners to prevent pitting and dulling of finish
  • Handle blades carefully—VERY SHARP; always clean from non-cutting side using a brush only
  • Rinse thoroughly and air-dry completely before reassembly to prevent corrosion and bacteria buildup
  • Never put in dishwasher; always hand wash to protect blade alignment and cutting precision
  • Lubricate guide rods occasionally with food-grade mineral oil (not cooking oil, it becomes sticky)
  • Inspect blades regularly for dullness, bending, or damage and replace if cutting force increases
  • Ensure all components (push block + blade set) are correctly matched before operation to avoid damage
  • Store dry, covered, and fully assembled or properly disassembled in a clean prep area to extend lifespan
