Prepare an endless variety of food fast with the small Hamilton Beach 8-Cup food Processor & vegetable chopper. A stainless steel s-blade for chopping and pureeing, a reversible disc for slicing and shredding, 450 watts and 2 speeds plus pulse offer power and control. Troubleshoot: (1) Unit does not operate on any speed or Pulse - * Is the unit plugged in? Does the outlet work? * Are the bowl and lid locked in place? See “How to Use” sections (2) Vegetables are not shredding or slicing - * Store vegetables with high water content in the refrigerator prior to processing. Room-temperature vegetables are less firm and do not perform as well (3) Unit has a burning smell - * There may be a residue left on the motor from the manufacturing process, causing a slight odor during initial use. This will go away. If a strong odor or any visible smoke appears, unplug unit IMMEDIATELY and call the Customer Service number. Other troubleshoot solutions are available on the user manual pg-11.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Anyone try making pie dough with this?**
A: works good for dough but I only use the pulse action otherwise it goes to fast and that creates more heat which you don't want when making pie dough

**Q: Is it possible to cube veggies like potato,eggplant or radish??**
A: Unfortunately not. There are such things as cubing grids for food processors but as far as I can tell they are made for professional grade food processors and typically cost in the area of $100plus. A quick internet or Amazon search of "cubing grids" will bring up your choices.

**Q: Would this unit work well for making nut butters (cashew, almond, etc)?**
A: With heart issues, I need to watch saturated fat, salt, and sugar so I make myself (and my 14-year old lab for his treats!) all my own nut butters from unsalted nuts of all kinds. This thing handles pretty much anything I toss in it. Better than the Kitchenaid one my sister bought for about 3X the price!!!

**Q: Is this good to 'rice' cauliflower?**
A: If you only pulse for about 3 seconds, probably.  But it's very powerful and your result could be mush rather than "rice". :)
