Cuisinart DLC-2014 - Manual (Page 7)

THE MACHINE
INCLUDES:
1. Housing base with a
vertically projecting
shaft and convenient
touchpad control panel.
2. 14-cup work bowl.
3. Cover with extra
large feed tube.
4. Pusher assembly
that slides inside
the feed tube.
5. Unique metal dough
blade, designed
specifically for our
dough speed control.
6. Sharp metal chop-
ping/mixing blade.
8. Serrated slicing disc.
10. Shredding disc.
11. Detachable stem
for discs (not shown).
12. Plastic spatula
(not shown).
The metal chopping blade
chops raw and cooked
fruits, vegetables, meat,
fish and cheese to the
exact consistency you
want, from coarse to fine,
even to a purée. It chops
nuts, makes nut butters,
mayonnaise and sauces,
and mixes tender, flaky
pastry. The metal chopping
blade also mixes cakes,
frostings, cookies,
quick breads, muffins,
and biscuits.
The Power Prep ™ Metal
Dough Blade is specifically
designed to work in
conjunction with our
DOUGH control. One touch
of the DOUGH button
makes “perfect dough
in seconds”.
A locking device prevents
heavy dough from driving
the blade up on the shaft.
The slicing disc makes
beautiful whole slices
without torn edges.
It slices whole fruits and
vegetables, cooked meat,
semi-frozen raw meat and
loaves of bread.
The shredding disc
processes most firm and
hard cheeses into long,
attractive shreds. It also
shreds vegetables like
potatoes, carrots and
zucchini, and processes
nuts and chocolate to a
grated texture.
The detachable stem fits
both discs, making disc
storage compact in
limited space.
The pusher assembly
has two parts.
1. A small, removable,
clear pusher that fits into
a small center-located
feed tube. This tube is
for narrow food like
carrots, for adding liquid,
and for continuous
feeding of small food
like garlic.
2. A large pusher that fits
into the Cuisinart ®
Supreme ™ feed tube
opening and moves
freely within it.
3. Upon contact, the large
pusher meets an
activating rod in the
center of the work bowl
handle, permitting the
motor to start.

clockwise to lock it onto
the Housing Base.
2. CAREFULLY lift and
place the chosen blade
over the work bowl
center hub. Line up the
markings on the blade
hub with the motor shaft.
It should fit snugly and
rest on the bottom of
the work bowl.

the work bowl cover and
slide the activating rod
down to the bottom.

Disc Operation
1. Plug in the Housing
Base and place the work
bowl on top, with the
work bowl handle just to
the left of center. Turn
the work bowl counter-

2. Choose desired disc
and place underside-up

The raised ‘lock’ indica-
tor on the left corner of
the stem should be to
