the slicer is operated in the “gravity feed” mode.
To mount the chute:
1. Remove the food carriage from the slicer.
2. Note the “engagement clip” on the “L” shaped chute. Position the “engagement clip” on the underside of the food
carriage behind the gray plastic lip.
3. Rotate the long portion of the “L” shaped chute onto the stainless steel top surface of the food carriage until it

Please note that when using the chute the food should self-feed while slicing in the “gravity feed” mode. The food
pusher cannot be used when the chute is in place.
Caution: Do not use hands or fingers to push the food. If the food does not easily self-feed during slicing, remove the
chute and use the food pusher to continue slicing.
