The Swiss Plus SC-845N chopper is listed with a 1.7-litre glass bowl, two speeds, and a two-tier blade assembly. Speed is not the only factor in making effective use of these features. Starting piece size, batch quantity, and when you stop also affect texture. This article reviews preparation and daily care.
Prepare ingredients before adding them to the bowl
Remove stones, bones, and any parts that are not permitted for processing. Prepare pieces as evenly as possible within the manual's limits. Avoid combining ingredients with very different textures unnecessarily in one batch: some may become fine while others remain coarse.
Fill the bowl according to its markings and permitted quantities. The 1.7-litre figure is the bowl's volume, not permission to fill it to the rim with every ingredient. Before switching on, check the blade, lid, and motor assembly, and place the bowl on a stable surface.

How do two speeds and two blade tiers help?
Two speeds let you choose an approach suited to the ingredient and desired result. The two-tier blade assembly is part of this model's design, but blade count alone does not guarantee the final texture. Follow the manual for starting and running time per batch, and check results in stages.
Factor | How to control it | Expected effect |
|---|---|---|
Starting piece size | Prepare evenly sized pieces | Reduce differences in texture |
Ingredient quantity | Observe the manual's limits | Allow ingredients to circulate more effectively |
Operation | Check in stages and stop as permitted | Control how finely ingredients are chopped |
Care | Clean and dry as instructed | Keep the appliance ready for the next batch |
Control texture in stages
For ingredients that should retain some texture, stop before they become too fine. The appliance must stop completely before opening. If ingredients need repositioning, unplug first, then use an approved utensil while keeping clear of the blade edges.
The model's specifications also list ice crushing; check the manual for the permitted size, quantity, and method. Do not extend this capability to every very hard ingredient. Motor thermal protection does not permit prolonged operation without rest.
Cleaning and blade care
After use, unplug and carefully remove the permitted components. Do not touch blade edges or immerse the motor housing in water. Check that the bowl and parts are dry before reassembly. To compare other preparation tools, also explore Swiss Plus food processors.
Check specifications and included accessories on the model's page. For operation and limitations, read the manual for that product.
