HELPFUL HINTS
Helpful Hints
• Only slice boneless meats, do not attempt to slice extremely hard foods, or fruits
with seeds.
• Your slicer is perfect for consistent uniform slices of fruits, onions, cucumbers,
cheese, potatoes, or homemade breads.
• For best results always chill cheese or raw meats prior to slicing. It is best to spray
the blade with water or wipe with a damp sponge when slicing soft cheese. If
excess cheese builds up on the blade surface, wipe with a damp cloth to avoid
overheating the motor.
• Never attempt to slice fully frozen foods.
• Ensure that all wrapping materials are removed from food prior to slicing.
• When slicing meats that have just been cooked ensure that they rest for at least 15
minutes prior to slicing. This will allow the natural juices to redistribute throughout,
making for a juicier, more flavorful taste.
Removing the Cutting Blade
CAUTION: BLADE IS EXTREMELY SHARP AND CAN CAUSE A SEVERE
LACERATION. PLEASE HANDLE WITH CARE.
1. Remove the CUTTING BLADE by carefully loosening the BLADE LOCKING
SCREW by turning clockwise.
6. Slide the FOOD CARRIAGE towards the CUTTING BLADE. Move back and forth
in a slow steady rhythm.
7. You can lubricate the FOOD CARRIAGE rod with a little vegetable oil to allow the
FOOD CARRIAGE to glide easier.
Caution: To avoid a laceration hazard never attempt to slice food without
using the food pusher and/or food carriage.
8. Do not run the slicer continuously for more than 10 minutes to avoid overheating
the motor.
9. When finished slicing, turn the ON/OFF SWITCH to the OFF position to stop the
CUTTING BLADE from turning.
10. Unplug from outlet.
11. When finished using your slicer, or when storing your slicer always set the
THICKNESS CONTROL KNOB to “0”.
