food chute. When using the GC12BA as a manual slicer make sure to push down or lower the auto engage
lever to the “Manual” position and keep it in that position at all times. Slice only boneless, unfrozen product
with the slicer. Use the end weight to hold the food product in place.
2. Make sure all knobs are tightened prior to using the slicer.
3. Rotate the slice thickness dial counterclockwise to the desired setting. After slicing is complete, always turn
the slice thickness dial clockwise until it stops to close the slicer table.
4. Turn the slicer on by pushing the start button. The power indicator light will illuminate (see page 4 for location).
