Model 330IK Manual Gear Driven Gravity Feed Slicer
1.4 Introduction
Cleaning and function check
Before you use the slicer, we recommend that you clean all exposed surfaces with a soft cloth
that has been placed in clean warm water and light detergent and squeezed dry. This will
remove any traces of machine oil, dirt or grit picked up during manufacture or storage.
Before you clean the machine, make sure that the thickness control is set to zero so that
the slicer blade edge is shielded, and make sure that the power is turned off.
Once the slicer is clean you can check that it is functioning correctly.
1. Ensure that all the supplied guards and blade shields are correctly fitted.
2. Using the carriage pusher handle (5), pull the carriage to the front of the machine. Make
sure that the thickness control (4) is set to zero and that the thickness plate (14) is flush
with the blade.
3. Switch on power to the machine at the power point. Press the green ON button until the
blade motor starts, and check that the blade rotates in a counter-clockwise direction.
Press the red OFF button and confirm that the blade stops.
4. Check that the meat table carriage (9) moves easily and that it does not stick at any point
along its travel. If the carriage is difficult to move, or seems to stick now and then, refer
to the Maintenance section for instructions on lubrication.
5. Check that the meat grip (12) moves freely along the length of its travel. If the meat grip
is difficult to move, or seems to stick now and then, refer to the Maintenance section for
instructions on lubrication.
6. Check that the thickness control (4) operates smoothly. Be sure to return it to the zero
mark before proceeding.
7. Check that the sharpener (13) operates correctly by first lifting the mechanism using the
knob on top of the sharpener housing, and then rotating it 180˚ clockwise. Return the
sharpener to its storage position.
11. Turn off the blade motor by pressing the red OFF button.
