It really isn't for that purpose.

Can the mandoline be used to slice meat as well?
Thanks,

Subject: [CnD] I Know How to Use the Mandoline Now
I know how to use this Mandoline now. You want to use vegetables like
onions, potatoes, carrots, cucumbers and zucchini. There are 3 positions
that you can slice. The lock position is all the way up to the top away
from the handle. You can tell what position you are in because it will
click for each one. Position 3 is all the way down toward the handle of
this
device. It will be the thickest slice. I think that's probably where I
would do most of my slicing. Cut the ends off of the vegetable to be
sliced.
You want a bowl that has a rim around it. Put the Mandoline on top of the
bowl. You select your position to slice and then put your vegetable on
top
of the platform. Take the finger guard and put it on the vegetable closest
to you. Put your fingers of one hand on each side of the finger guard. Do
not touch the platform when it is in the unlocked position with your
fingers. I held the handle in my left hand and used the finger guard in my
right hand. Then once your finger guard is placed in the vegetable, you
slide up toward the opposite end and it will slice, and you repeat this
until all the vegetable is sliced. You cannot do meats on this and I
wouldn't anyway. Then when you finish slicing your vegetable, you put the
mandoline in the lock position which is to slide the bar all the way
toward
the opposite end of the handle and then I washed both the guard and
mandoline in soapy water, dried it and put it away. If you use it like you
are supposed to, you will not cut yourself, and I think it is really a
neat
device and I will use it a lot and I'm glad I bought it.
