SHARPENER MAINTENANCE

1. Turn OFF the slicer, turn index knob fully to the right and unplug the power cord from the

receptacle. On the 839A, make sure the manual/automatic knob is in the manual position.

2. Rotate the sharpener cover back as far as it will go.

3. Clean the cover with water and detergent. Carefully clean the sharpener assembly and

around the stones. Oil the spindle and bearing assemblies with Berkel Food Machine Oil.

4. Check the stones. If they do not turn freely, are greasy or are full of metallic build-up, they

must be cleaned. (See “Cleaning the Sharpening Stones,” page 7). If the stones are

cracked or chipped they must be replaced.

5. Rotate the cover down and in place covering the sharpener assembly.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

CLEANING SHARPENING STONES

Each time the sharpener is used, the sharpening stones should be examined for cleanliness.

Turn off the slicer, close the gauge plate, unplug power cord and open the sharpener cover. If

there is evidence of fatty or metallic build-up in the stones, they must be cleaned. Otherwise,

they will not have the abrasive quality necessary to sharpen. Clean as follows:

1. Remove the screw from the deburring stone and the 8mm nut from the sharpening stone.

2. Soak the stones in a solution of dish soap (i.e. Joy, Dawn, etc.) and water for one hour.

CAUTION

Dirty Stones Cannot Sharpen!

IF THE SHARPENING STONES HAVE BECOME COATED WITH FOOD FATS

OR METALLIC BUILD-UP, THEY WILL NOT SHARPEN EFFECTIVELY.

WARNING
