OPERATION
of Spiral Fry™
First disengage the DRIVE LEVER by lifting it off the DRIVE SCREW and letting it hang down from the SUPPORT ROD. Pull back on
CRANK until the back face of the DRIVE PLATE mounted on the rear of the DRIVE SCREW strikes the face of the stand. Push the
large diameter end of the product onto the fingers of the DRIVE PLATE and then push product, drive plate and crank forward until
CENTER SCREW is embedded in the product. Engage DRIVE LEVER by placing it over the DRIVE SCREW. Then turn CRANK
clockwise until product is completely processed. Disengage DRIVE LEVER, pull DRIVE SCREW back, remove product heel and
repeat the process.
Note: For best results, place a hand lightly on the DRIVE LEVER while turning the crank. When the DRIVE LEVER rises, stop
cranking; lift the DRIVE LEVER and pull the CRANK and DRIVE SCREW back to accept the next product. Do not continue
to crank after the DRIVE LEVER rises.
