SECTION 3.0
FUNCTION
3.1 Machine Functions
This universal motor drive unit features a 1/3 HP motor which will drive all
current electric Whizard Trimmers with all the advantages, the power, and with all
the performance to improve your yields and profits.
A vertical motor drives a flexible shaft. The flexible shaft drives a rotating blade
in the handpiece via a gear and pinion. The force to cut through meat and fats is
now provided by the drive motor and no longer by the worker. Forces applied by
the worker are greatly reduced and limited to guiding the rotating knife blade.
The design locks the handpiece in the hanger and shuts the motor off when the
handpiece is placed in the hanger.
The motor will not start if the handpiece is in the hanger. An emergency slap-stick
stops the unit.
The handpiece has no metal to metal contact with the motor.
