MAINTENANCE
KNIFE SHARPENING
The Hobart cast stainless steel knife will provide long service in normal food retail or commercial
kitchen use. However, in high volume applications where it is a practice to sharpen the knife
frequently or even daily, the knife will be expended in a shorter time.
Sharpen only when necessary; prolonged or too frequent sharpening results in
unnecessary knife wear. The knife cannot be removed other than by trained service
personnel.
WARNING: UNPLUG MACHINE POWER CORD.
Turn the index knob fully clockwise to close the gauge plate. Remove the Top Knife Cover by
rotating the Latch Knob counterclockwise and lifting it off the slicer. Thoroughly wash the area
around the knife, the exposed knife surfaces, and the knife edge. Fat from meat or cheese
should not be allowed to transfer from the knife to the sharpener.
Plug in machine power cord. Position Lever
at Manual (down) position. With the carriage
tray pulled fully forward, start the slicer with
your right hand by pulling the Switch Knob
forward and holding it out. Pull the sharpener
handle fully forward for 5 seconds (Fig. 9).
Slowly release the sharpener handle. Release
the switch knob to turn the slicer off. If
necessary, repeat sharpening for another 5
seconds.
Unplug machine power cord. Wipe the slicer
with a clean damp cloth to remove any grinding
particles. Replace the Top Knife Cover.
LUBRICATION — Carriage Slide Rod
Lubricate the Carriage Slide Rod with
Lubriplate FMO-200-AW oil (supplied). Either
squirt 8 – 10 drops every 2 – 3 months
(depending on usage) in the Wick Hole on
the Carriage Transport (Fig. 10). Or, once
monthly, apply 4 – 5 drops directly on the
Carriage Slide Rod on each side of the
Carriage Transport (Fig. 10).
To apply oil, pull out the telescoping tube on
the oil bottle, aim the tube, and squeeze
gently on the sides of the bottle. After applying
oil, move the Carriage Tray back and forth a
few times so the oil spreads over the entire
length of the slide rod.
OVERLOAD RESET BUTTON — MODEL 2912
Push the reset button underneath the slicer near the right-front foot if the carriage motor overloads.
