R302 Operation Manual
B. CONTINUOUS FEED ATTACHMENT ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
The continuous feed lead serves several functions. Primarily, the lead protects the operator from the cutting
plate. When the lead is fully locked in place, the plate is covered and the unit will be ready for operation.
The continuous feed lead has two feed openings, one large and one small, with matching
pushers. The food is inserted in the chosen opening by removing the pusher with one hand and then
depositing the food into the chute with the other hand. The pusher should then be used to “push” the food
through the opening.
CAUTION: Keep hands out of the feed openings.
The Food Processor is now assembled and ready to perform its desired function. Before continuing the
operation-You should completely read the instructions contained in the rest of this manual.
DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS: Simply reverse the steps outlined in the assembly instructions with the
power cord unplugged from its wall socket.

R302 Operation Manual
III. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
THE UNIT SHOULD BE OFF EXCEPT WHEN PROCESSING IS UNDERWAY.
It is recommended that the machine be operated on
a 50% duty cycle. This is easily accomplished since
the preparation time (cleaning, coring, peeling, and
loading) takes longer than the processing time. This
will yield the longest life for your machine.
NOTE: This machine is equipped with manual reset
thermal overload protection. If the machine is overloaded or run too long under heavy load conditions,
the overload will trip. If this occurs, first remove the
bowl and reduce the amount of food being processed.
The reset button is located on the bottom right corner
of the motor base. Press the button in to reset the
overload protector.
4. TO CHOP ONIONS, CELERY, CABBAGE, ETC.
Quarter onions, and cut other vegetables into 2 to 3
inch portions. Place the product into the bowl up to 3/
4 full and pulse the unit until you reach the desired
consistency. CAUTION: If you overfill or allow the
machine to run continually, the product on the top
may not be cut while that on the bottom will be pureed.
5. TO PUREE OR MIX: To puree, make sauces, or
to mix and blend, place the ingredients into the bowl
(do not overfill), turn the unit on, and allow to run continuously.
DO NOT allow the machine to run
unattended.
A. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF THE
CUTTER BOWL
The cutter bowl attachment is used for grinding, pureeing, blending, mixing, of ingredients. With the
power switch off and the bowl and blade secured in
place (per previous instructions) you are now ready
to add product to the bowl. There are two ways to
run your machine. Chopping using a quick start/stop
action with the pulse button, or running continuously
for a fine chop or puree.
1. TO CHOP
To achieve a chopped consistency for vegetables,
meats, cheese, etc., fill the bowl 2/3 to 3/4 full with
portions no larger than 1 to 2 inch square. Press the
pulse button until the desired consistency is reached.
If the motor stalls, reduce the amount of product in
the bowl.
2. TO PUREE OR FINE CHOP: For a fine puree,
emulsification, or fine chop fill the bowl 2/3 to 3/4 full
with portions no larger than 1 to 1 1/2 inches square.
Begin by pulsing the machine to reduce the size then,
press the on button, and allow the machine to run
until the product is finely chopped or pureed. Some
purees may require the addition of a liquid to obtain
the correct consistency.
3. TO CHOP HARD CHEESE: Place uniform 1” to 1
1/2” cubes of chilled cheese up to 1 1/2 pounds into
the bowl and pulse the machine. For powdered
cheese pulse the motor until the cheese is about pea
size then allow the motor to run continuously until you
have a fine powder.

R302 Operation Manual
Sharpening the “S” blade
The “S” blade will require sharpening on a periodic basis depending on use. The use of a
dull blade will sometimes give unsatisfactory results. A honing stone is provided with
each machine for this purpose. Follow the directions shown to sharpen the blade, or have
the blades sharpened professionally if you prefer.
1. Put on your cut-resistant gloves
2. Use the robot Coupe stone or any good
sharpening stone.
3. Hold or clamp the blade flat on the edge or
corner of a sturdy table.
4. With the other hand hold the stone at a 30
degree angle against the top bevel of one
blade.
5. Pull the stone into the blade edge moving
from hub to tip, several strokes, until the
blade is sharp.
6. Turn the blade over and rub the stone flat
against the underside of the blade to
remove the feather edge formed at step 5.
7. Repeat the procedure for the other blade.
8. Wash the blade before use.

R302 Operation Manual
B: INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF THE
CONTINUOUS FEED ATTACHMENT:
The Robot Coupe Food Processor will slice, grate,
shred and julliene. These processes will be performed
in a matter of seconds. Because of the speed of the
process, it is necessary that the operator perform preliminary steps before turning the machine on. Food
preparation, feed chute loading, and availability of a
receptacle for receiving the finished product are some
of the steps to assure positive control of the processing operation.
Food preparation will be required to assure that the
produce will fit a feed chute with the pusher covering
the product. Additionally, according to personal preference, some products may or may not be cored or
peeled. Feed chute selection should be made depending upon the product to be processed. As an
example, good consistency of small round produce
(carrots, cucumbers, etc.) necessitates use of the
small feed chute to allow better operator control. Use
of the larger port for this type of produce may result in
an undesired finished product, e.g., slicing with the
grain. In general, more control of the processing operation can also be obtained by filling the selected
feed chute and placing the pusher in position before
turning the machine on.
Adherence to certain operational techniques will also
enhance the processing operation. For instance, a
consistent pressure with the pusher upon the produce
will yield a consistent output. Application of more pressure will increase the thickness of the product, e.g.,
thicker slice, while reduction in pressure will result in
a finer product. However, do not apply enough pressure to stall or slow the motor. This will cause damage to both the plate and the motor. If no pressure is
applied at all and the produce is permitted to bounce
around, an inconsistent product may result. When
the pusher has settled fully in the feed chute, press
the off switch and re-load the entry port for a repeat
process.
DO NOT remove the continuous feed lead
when the motor is running. Wait until the
motor has come to a full stop.
DO NOT attempt to run frozen products
through the cutting plates.
DO NOT put anything other than food
products in the feed chute.
Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling
the cutting plates.
(1) Slicing Operation: When preparing food to be
sliced, make sure the food will fit into the proper feed
chute. Produce such as carrots, cucumbers, etc.,
should be “squared” at both ends. This will provide a
consistent slice throughout the whole product. With
cabbage, lettuce or any product that has an undesirable core, the core should be removed. Medium
size heads of lettuce or cabbage may be cut into
thirds to fit in the feed chute. It is also suggested that
the rounded half be squared to permit a consistent
cut. The rounded portion can be dropped into the
chute at the end and with no pressure applied, it will
normally be processed uniformly. Larger heads of
cabbage or lettuce may be more effectively processed
if they are cut into fourths. When the preparation has
been accomplished, fill the selected feed chute, place
the pusher in position, turn the machine on and observe the results.
THE UNIT SHOULD BE OFF EXCEPT WHEN PROCESSING IS UNDERWAY. It is recommended that
the machine be operated on a 50% duty cycle. This
is easily accomplished since the preparation time
(cleaning, coring, peeling, and loading) takes longer
than the processing time. This will yield the longest
life for your machine.

R302 Operation Manual
(2) Grating Operation: Again, prepare the product
as to allow insertion into the feed chute. Consider
which chute will be used. As an example, placement
of carrots horizontally in the large chute will result in
a long grated product, while vertical insertion in the
smaller chute will result in a short grated product. It
is recommended that chilled cheese be used when
grated cheese is desired, otherwise a gumminess may
result. A fine coating of cornstarch applied to the
cheese before grating will aid in keeping the finished
product separated. A fine coating of cornstarch will
not be visible and is tasteless. Grating cheese is one
of the most trying processes and because the nature
of the product may cause overheating of the motor if
not grated in the recommended manner. It is recommended that a slight pulsating pressure be applied
with the pusher while grating, alternating slight pressure on the pusher—no pressure—continuing in this
manner until the block of cheese is completely grated.
It is recommended that the cheese be prepared to fit
(3) Julienne Operation: Insertion of the product to
be cut must be horizontal if a long stick is to be
achieved, e.g., squash sticks. Vertical insertion will
result in finely chopped products, e.g., chopped celery. A finely chopped onion product may also be
obtained with this operation.
Plate Utilization
The Robot Coupe food processor will perform a variety of functions: slicing, grating, French fry, and
julienne. There are a total of 25 different plates available to perform these functions to meet individual
tastes. The 21 plates consists of:
7 slicing plates
8 grating plates
6 julienne plates
The standard Robot Coupe comes with two (2) plates.
Check your most current price list for the plates which
are included as standard. The number and type of
plates will vary depending upon the use of the machine.

SLICING PLATES
R291 1/32" - 1mm Slicing Plate
The thinnest slicing plate is the R291. It is used for
paper thin slicing of potatoes for potato chips. This
plate will also slice carrots lengthwise which can be
soaked in cold water to make flower petals for
garnish.
R210 5/64" - 2mm Slicing Plate
The next to the thinnest of the straight slicing plates
is the R210. It provides a wafer thin slice that
makes harder vegetables look best. Carrots,
radishes, celery and potatoes look terrific through
this plate. This is the best plate for shredded
lettuce for tacos and sandwiches. This is also the
plate for cabbage for a German style slaw.
R292 1/8" - 3mm Slicing Plate
This is one of the new thickness of slice available.
By cutting 1/8" thick it gives good shelf life and
maximum yield. Almost any vegetable can be cut
with this plate and gives greater yield than the
standard slicer which comes with the unit.
R211 5/32" - 4mm Slicing Plate
The R211 is the best all purpose slicing plate. For
most vegetables this thickness is best. Cucumbers, mushrooms, zucchini, and celery all cut
beautifully with the R211 while providing a good
shelf life. This is the second most popular plate
requested and comes standard with the unit. Even
soft foods like strawberries, bananas, and green
onion tops slice marvelously.
R293 3/16" - 5mm Slicing Plate
Some foods are more attractive when sliced a bit
thicker and that is the function of the R293. Half
slices of tomato or bell pepper work good as well as
yellow squash and zucchini. Try deep fried thick
slices of potato using the R293 for home fries.

R302 Operation Manual
GRATING PLATES
R270 1/4" - 6mm Slicing Plate
For soups and stews an extra thick slice is desirable. Carrots and celery work great this way. Any
food that you want a more generous slice on will
look terrific through the R270. For this reason it is
the third most popular plate .
R212 5/64" - 2mm Waved Slicing Plate
This is a decorative, thin, waved slice. Harder
vegetables will work best with this plate like carrots,
radishes, zucchini and potatoes.

GRATING PLATES
R271 Hard Cheese Grating Plate
The R271 is the plate which will make a powder from
hard cheeses. Parmesan and Romano are used most
extensively with this. When potatoes are run through
this plate a batter is produced which is excellent for
potato pancakes.
R294 .02” - .7mm Pulping Plate
The R294 pulping plate was created to grind Chinese
radish into a pulp that is served with sushi. Moreover, it will render any vegetable into a wet pulp or
batter, much the way a vegetable juicer does. This is
ideal for vegetable sauces that are low fat.
R295 1/32”-1mm Pulping Plate
The R295 reacts identically to the R294 but is just
slightly coarser so that not as much juice is extracted.
Use on ginger root (shoga), white radish (dikon), baby
turnips (kabo), or lotus root (renkon).
R208 1/16" - 1.5mm Fine Grating Plate
The R208 is a delicate grate used mostly for cheeses
and carrots. The width of the grate is 1/16" or 1.5mm
It also does an excellent job on bread crumbs and
cold chocolate.
R209 5/64" - 2mm Medium Grating Plate
This is the most ordered plate of this series. While
being used mainly for cheeses and carrots its size, 5/
64" or 2mm, gives maximum yield with excellent shelf
life. Also used on coconuts and potatoes for hash
browns. This is the grating plate that comes standard with the unit.

R302 Operation Manual
R281 1/8" - 3mm Medium Coarse Grating
This new size grating plate is good for an extra fine
coleslaw or anything you prefer grated a bit coarser
than the standard R209 medium grating plate. This
plate works wonderfully with cheese, potatoes,
beets, eggs, cabbage or sweet potatoes.
R288 5/32"x 5/32" - 4mm x 4mm Julienne Plate
This is the most popular of the julienne plates. Carrots, yellow squash, and zucchini work best. These
can be sautéed and makes a beautiful garnish for an
entree. Try steaming these too for a healthy and colorful side dish.
R280 1/4" - 6mm Coarse Grating Plate
This in between size of grate has become popular
with salad bars. Cheeses and carrots appear a bit
more generous when grated this way. Also purple
cabbage run trough this plate can add a splash of
color to a salad bowl filled with lettuce.
R297 5/64" x 1/4" - 2mm x 6mm Julienne Plate
This new julienne cut is becoming a very popular presentation on salads. Carrots, zucchini and yellow
squash look especially good this way.
R215 3/8 - 9mm Extra Coarse Grating Plate
The R215 is the widest grating plate. It provides an
extra thick grate of cabbage for slaw and cheeses for
melting. Mozzarella cheese looks terrific through the

OR CHEESES.
R214 5/64”x 5/64” - 2 x 2mm Julienne Plate
The R214 is an extremely fine julienne which can
dress up a salad. Radishes potatoes and carrots work
best. Try julienne radishes with the R214 for an ultra-fine cut that looks like a top chef worked for hours
preparing.
R296 5/64"x 5/32" - 2mm x 4mm Julienne Plate
This is an interesting flat julienne that gives substance
to a delicate cut. One unique function of this plate is
to duplicate the slaw cut that comes from a buffalo
chopper. Try the R296 with radish, potato,
summersquash, or sweet potato.
R213 1/4"x 1/4” or 6mm x 6mm French Fry Plate
This might as well be called the taco plate. Tomatoes and onions can be quartered and allowed to gravity feed through the lead and are chopped without
damage. Lettuce can be cut for a chopped taco lettuce. Chopped onions through the R213 are great
for hot-dogs also. Every school system should have
this plate. Bell peppers can be chopped like the onions for meatloaf or chili. As a sideline the French fry
plate makes great French fries and is the fifth most
popular plate.
R298 5/16" x 5/16" or 8mm x 8mm Julienne Plate
The 8 x 8mm julienne plate is great for zucchini, onions, and eggplants.
PLATE HOLDER
R255 Plate Rack
Holds nine plates and is ideal to store your Robot
Coupe accessories.
While the standard Robot Coupe comes with two specific plates (R209 and R211 at time of printing), many
user applications may require some of the optional
plates available with the unit. As an example, a typical salad bar might use:
R210 2mm (5/64 in.) Slicing plate
R211 4mm (5/32 in.) Slicing plate
R209 2mm (5/64 in.) Medium Grating plate
The R210 plate could be used to slice cucumbers,
carrots, celery, etc. Good yield with long shelf life.
The R211 plate could be used to provide half slices
of tomatoes, bell peppers, or onions.
The R209 Medium Grating plate would process carrots, cheese, etc.

R302 Operation Manual
IV. CLEANING/PREVENTIVE
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Blade Assembly
(1) CLEANING: Proper cleaning of the machine is
one of the most important preventive maintenance
measures the user can employ. The high acid content of food can cause harm to the electrical parts
contained within the housing. Although a seal isolates these elements from the outside, food juices
will tend to seep. If food juices are allowed to collect
on the machine over periods of use , erosion of the
seal can occur. It is recommended that the machine
be cleaned after each operational use.
Correct cleaning procedures are required to assure
that damage is not inflicted in the cleaning process.
The motor base assembly contains the motor and
electrical components.
There is a removable cap attached to the top of the
DO NOT IMMERSE THE MOTOR BASE S-blade assembly. This cap should be removed when
cleaning the blade assembly.
ASSEMBLY IN WATER!
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
ATTACHMENTS: Remove and disassemble all attachments before cleaning. The bowl and continuous feed attachments should be cleaned per the following instructions or as required by local health department regulations.
The bowl, blade, lid, continuous feed attachment,
continuous feed lead, pushers and plates are dishwasher safe. All of the attachments listed above can
be washed in a dish machine or three tank system
pot sink. Pre-rinse the attachments before washing
to remove any bulk food on the parts. A stiff bristle
brush or power sprayer faucet attachment is effective in knocking the food out of the crevices as a prerinse procedure. The washer should have an industry standard wash, rinse and sanitization cycle. Allow the parts to air dry after sanitizing and before reassembly.
NOTE: The high temperatures of dish machines will tend to shorten the life of the
plastic and rubber parts. Hand washing
using a three pot sink will provide for the
longest life of these parts.
Caution: The blades are sharp. Wear cutresistant gloves when handling the
blade.
The blade cap may be removed by carefully pulling
the cap up away from the blade. It may be helpful to
pull slightly to the side. The cap is held in place by
small plastic clips molded into the cap which snap
into the body of the blade assembly. If the cap is
difficult to remove, you can use a small diameter rod
or screwdriver inserted through the bottom side of
the blade assembly to “knock” out the cap using a
quick sharp impact. Again, use caution when handling the blade.
Cleaning: Clean the blade according to local Health
Department regulations. It may be necessary to pre
wash the blade with a power head sprayer followed
by the use of a small round brush to remove any remaining residue. Typical cleaning instructions may
include the following:
Dishwasher: Clean the blade assembly in a commercial dish machine by removing the blade cap and
placing it flat on a wash tray or in a small parts holder,
it could otherwise be washed out of the rack. The
dish machine should have a standard wash, rinse,
and sanitizing cycle.
Pot Sink: The blade may also be cleaned using the 3
sink method of wash, rinse, and sanitize. Remove
the blade cap and wash each item separately. The
sanitization sink should include a minimum of 200
12
R302 Operation Manual
PPM chlorine solution or other approved sanitizing
agent. The use of a small brush will assist in removing food particles from around the blade and inside
the hub. Allow the parts to air dry laying flat on a
drying tray.
Autoclave: The blade assembly will withstand cleaning in an autoclave system with temperatures less
than 210 degrees C. However, it will reduce the life
of the blade as compared to other sanitizing methods.
Inspect the area on the outside of the bowl and feed
attachment around the handle and magnetic rod to
ensure they are clean. Use a brush on these areas if
necessary.
MOTOR BASE: Cleaning of the motor base assembly must be done with care.
First unplug the unit. A sponging with a cloth lightly
soaked (not dripping) in a mild detergent is acceptable, making sure the water is not permitted to penetrate the shaft seal or around the switches. Clean
around the shaft seal with a small brush, taking care
to remove all food. Do not forget to clean the motor
shaft. Rinse the motor base first using a cloth lightly
dampened (not dripping) with water, then with a sanitizing solution, and dry the machine with a soft cloth
removing all liquids from seal areas.
around the motor shaft. With proper care, and depending on use, the seal should last for a year or
more. However, it can and should be replaced whenever wear or erosion is noted, or minimally once per
year. It is recommended that the seal be replaced by
an authorized repair agency.
Blades should be kept sharp. It is not necessary to
have a razor edge however they will need sharpening periodically. Replacement of the dull blades or
plates is recommended.
(3) CARE: Your Robot Coupe is a piece of kitchen
equipment and like all other kitchen equipment, care
and caution should be used when operating. Although
training requirements are minimal, only responsible
individuals familiar with this operation manual should
be allowed to operate your Robot Coupe.
In general, the best preventive measures that can be
applied are close adherence to the assembly, operation, cleaning, and handling instructions, common
sense and regular maintenance.
(2) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKS
While your Robot Coupe is a ruggedly constructed
machine, overall handling should be accomplished
with a sense of use rather than abuse. Reasonable
care should be exercised. While the machine is reasonably portable, care should be taken not to drop it.
Equally, caution should be exercised in handling all
the parts to assure they are not damaged.
An examination should be made periodically to assure that a seal against food is being maintained
