MODEL FP100 FOOD PROCESSOR
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
The Model FP100 Food Processor is used for slicing, shredding, grating, Julienne cutting and dicing
vegetables, fruits or cheese. The compact unit is designed for ease of operation and quick cleaning.
INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking the FP100, check for possible shipping damage. If the food processor is
found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Prior to installation, test the electrical service to ensure that it agrees with the specifi cations on the data
plate located at the rear.
Do not lift the food processor with any hinged or extended parts; lift only with the black carrying handle
located on the top of the motor housing.
LOCATION
The FP100 should be operated on a suitable counter height surface. A pan (not provided), suitable for
kitchen use, can be used to capture the product at the exit chute.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The electrical cord on this machine is equipped with a grounding- type plug which
must be connected to a properly grounded receptacle. If the receptacle is not the proper grounding
type, contact an electrician. Do not remove the grounding prong from the plug.
OPERATION
Rotating knives inside. Always use pusher plate. Keep hands out.
Proper assembly of the FP100, including selection of the appropriate cutters, is necessary for correct
operation of the food processor (Fig's. 1 & 2). Refer to the Cutting Tool Guide for sizes of cutters and
refer to the appropriate operation instructions.
CONTROLS
START (Green) — Push to start.
STOP (Red) — Push to stop.
Interlock switches prevent the machine from operating when the feed hopper is out of position or the pusher
plate is raised. If these features do not function as described, contact your local Hobart service offi ce.
During operation, when the pusher plate is fully raised and rotated, the machine stops. When the pusher
plate is rotated above the feed hopper and starts down, the machine will restart — you do not need to
push the green START switch unless STOP was pressed.
Always push the red STOP switch before changing cutters or cleaning.
