Question: directions  how 2 use the  salad slicers/shredder/ mixer
Document: I have owned 2 of these salad shooter. I had the same problem with both..... from the very first use, they emit a horribly loud screeching sound. I found the sound most uncomfortable and rarely use this shredder. I'll shred manually and save my hearing. Save your money!!! !
I decided to buy a slicer/shredder because I was tired of hand doing everything so started looking around. I have a kitchen aid stand mixer and at first really wanted the attachments for shredding etc that would go with the mixer. Wow! The reviews for the kitchen aid products were scary! So looked elsewhere and found the salad shooter. After reading some of the really great reviews I ordered one. I have to say I don't know how I have lived without one!
We got this (actually not this exact model. Can't find my model..it has a hand mixer attachment) as a wedding gift. We tried to return it, as we couldn't see a need for it at the time. Unable to return it to any store we tried, it sat in the box in a cupboard for 2 years. Until one day when the heavens parted and celestial light shone down upon this amazing little wonder and I finally decided to give it a try.
The first salad shooter I bought lasted about 15 years before it finally quit--and it saw a LOT of use.I immediately had it replaced.I am not a huge gadget nut,but this one is as essential to me as a toaster or a mixer.Every kitchen should have one!
I have wanted a Salad Shooter pretty much since they came out with them. I got mine in pretty quickly and I like it but if I need to do very much shredding or slicing or want larger slices I will still need to use my food processor. The Salad Shooter works pretty good if you are shredding, say 1-2 potatoes and don't want to mess up your food processor but if I were going to do more than that, I would be better off with the processor.
So pleased to purchase the salad shooter at such a great price. It came with 2, I will call them blades, but the first one I had had for years had several other bade's.Thrilled the old ones work with the new salad shooter. I use it to make ham salad. Works great. Looked in several stores but no one carried them anymore so was very pleased to find it on Amazon. Was shipped right away an I got it in time to make my ham salad for Christmas.
This was also a gift for a furture daughter in law...I have one but Mine is a mixer also and she loved her salad shooter.
I had a salad shooter before that was also a mixer. This salad shooter does not have as strong a motor as the other one did.Also the shooter on this model is alot shorter than the last one that I had. It works OK but is not as good.
I love this salad shooter. M y husband and grandson loves tortillas filled with cheese and grilled.. I use the shredder to shred the cheese. It is fast and easy to use.
Being on the outside of the attachment, it should be possible to sharpen them with a fine file or sharpening stone, or else haunt the yard sales to get replacement parts from people who didn't like theirs...A definite must-have, from somebody who has a KitchenAid Stand Mixer with all the good attachments, and still uses the Salad Shooter for shredding carrots and such stuff. Nice.
Answer: There's pusher inside the tall part of the salad shooter.  You take out the pusher, put in the carrots or cheese or whatever, select grate or slice (I only use grate), put the pusher back in and press it down to push the food onto the cylinder that does the cutting. Point the shooter into a bowl, flip on the switch.  Easy.  And it's nice and quiet, too.  I used to have to warn my family "loud noise!" when I used my old similar shooter that was made by another company.  Not with this one.  It's great.
