MAINTENANCE
KNIFE SHARPENING
The Knife will provide long service in normal food store or 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 sharpening too frequently results in unnecessary
knife wear.
Unplug machine power cord.
Turn the Index Knob fully clockwise to close the Gauge Plate. Remove the Knife Cover by unscrewing
the Knob and lifting it off the slicer.
Turn the slicer ON. Pull the Sharpener Handle (Fig. 10) forward for 15 seconds and release. Turn the
slicer off. Unplug machine power cord. Clean and sanitize the slicer as outlined in the cleaning section
after sharpening the Knife. Replace the Knife Cover.
LUBRICATION
Maintain smooth slicing by applying a few drops of mineral oil on the Carriage Slide Rod underneath the
slicer base. Do not use vegetable oil.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Make sure that the circuit breaker has not tripped or the fuse blown.
