ABSTRACT:
A protector for a feed tube of a food processor comprises a feed tube cover hingedly mounted to a bowl cover for pivotal movement of the feed tube cover between a closed position over the feed tube and an opened position retracted from the feed tube. A food pusher is detachably coupled to the feed tube cover for reciprocal motion within the feed tube. A latch permanently mounted to the feed tube cover secures the feed tube cover to the bowl cover and operates interlock means to enable operation of the food processor only when the feed tube is properly protected by the feed tube cover. The food pusher includes a hollow pusher shaft which forms a reduced size secondary feed tube into which a secondary food pusher is inserted and detachably secured.
