Benriner Mandolin Vegetable Slicer - Silver

The Benriner Mandolin Vegetable Slicer has a cutting surface width of 9.5cm, making it suitable for medium to large vegetables.

This model typically comes with three interchangeable stainless steel blades: one for fine shredding/slicing, one for medium shredding/slicing, and one for thick slicing/julienning.

Yes, the blades are removable for cleaning. However, they are extremely sharp. Always handle them with extreme care, using a brush to clean them under running water. Dry them immediately and thoroughly.

Yes, the thick blade setting is suitable for creating consistent strips that can be used for French fries or other julienned dishes.

The blades are made of razor-sharp stainless steel. The body and handle are typically constructed from durable, corrosion-resistant plastic materials designed for food preparation.

There is a precise thickness adjustment dial located on the side or base of the mandolin. Turn the dial to select your desired thickness, ensuring it locks into place before use.

If the safety guard is lost, it is highly recommended to obtain a replacement before using the mandolin again. Continued use without the guard significantly increases the risk of serious injury.

Ensure the mandoline is placed on a dry, flat, non-slip surface. Check that the non-slip base is clean and functioning correctly. Make sure the unit is fully assembled and locked into place.

Verify that the thickness adjustment dial is set correctly and firmly in place. Ensure the food is held straight and pushed evenly through the blades. Check if the blades are clean and free from debris.

Make sure you are using the appropriate blade for the type of food. For tougher vegetables, ensure a steady, firm pressure. Clean the blades thoroughly before and after use, as residual food can cause sticking.

Rinse and dry blades immediately after each use. For rust spots, try a non-abrasive cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water. If blades are significantly dull, they may need to be replaced. Contact customer support or consult the manual for replacement blade information.
