KitchenAid Safety Interlock for Food Processors

  • KitchenAid food processors and choppers have a safety interlock to prevent them from turning on if not properly assembled, with two different models requiring specific assembly steps; for the first model, place the work bowl on the base, slide the handle from left to right, center it, insert the blade, and attach the lid by sliding it from 8 o'clock to 6 o'clock, while for the second model, place the work bowl on the base, insert the blade firmly until it clicks, and attach the lid by sliding it from left to right to engage with the base, noting that the chopper will still function without the blade locked in place but with less uniform results.
