Operation
The foodstuff should only be loaded onto the meat table with the thickness control
set to zero and the power switched off at the control panel.
Aside from being essential to your safety, these conditions keep the foodstuff to be
sliced (particularly if it is solid) from being accidently knocked against the cutting
edge of the blade, which could be damaged.
The recommended, and only safe ways of moving the meat table during slicing
operations is either with the meat table handle or by setting the machine to AUTO
The manual slicing movement should be done at a speed that is constant and
ap pro pri ate to the density and/or hardness of the foodstuff to be sliced. The general
rule-of-thumb is that the harder the foodstuff, the slower the slicing.
Following this rule will result in a slice with a good, clean appearance, without
putting undue strain on either the cutting blade or the motor.
Sharpen the blade as soon as the sliced foodstuff begins to look ragged or
rough ened, or when the effort required to slice increases signi cantly. Refer to the
Maintenance section for the correct procedure for blade sharpening.
Begin using the slicer by returning the thickness control to zero and making sure that the
meat tray carriage is pulled to the front of the slicer.
Place the food stuff on the meat tray with the side to be sliced touching the thickness
plate (8) and up against the meat tray fence (6).
Swing the meat grip/Last Slice device (7) over so that it rests on top of the foodstuff.
Set the desired thickness of slice using the thickness control (1).
Turn the AUTO/MANUAL selector handle (3) 180° clockwise to the MANUAL position.
Switch the slicer on using the green START button at the front of the machine (2).
Im me di ate ly the thickness control will light up, showing power is on, and the blade will
spin in an anti-clockwise direction.
Grasp the meat table handle (5) rmly and push the meat table away from you towards
the back of the slicer. Once the slice has been cut, pull the meat table back towards you.
