MECHANICAL SAFETY
As far as safety against mechanical risks are concerned, the slicer described in this manual complies with the
Directive EN 1974: 1998 + A1 “Food processing machinery – Slicing machines – Safety and hygiene
requirements” so is compliant with machine directive 2006/42/CE.
Safety has been achieved by means of:
a) A non-removable blade guard around the blade, to protect the area not used for the cutting.
b) A food carriage that can be removed only when the gauge plate knob is at the stroke end clockwise (i.e. on
a position to protect the cutting edge of the blade) and when the carriage is at the end of its stroke towards the
operator. These conditions are blocked mechanically by the food carriage removing.
c) Removable blade cover.
d) A set of finger-guards in transparent plastic material, mounted on the food carriage.
e) The last slice device may not be stopped in the upper position for 60 mm from the blade (applicable to CE
models only).
CAUTION!
In compliance with paragraph 1.7.2 “WARNING ABOUT RESIDUAL RISKS” of directive 98/37/EC
Annex I, we draw your attention to the fact that the blade safety guard does not completely eliminate
the risk of cuts in the sharpening area, although it drastically reduces the possibility and the extent of
injury.
1.3
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The protection against electrical risks conforms to Norm EN 60204 and so it complies with the requirements
of Directive 2006/95/EC.
The control circuit has been fitted with a relay that necessitates deliberate relighting of the slicer in the event
of accidental loss of current.
Given to the good insulation of the electrical circuit and the excellent rust-resistance materials employed, the
slicer can be installed and used even in damp premises. It is built to resist the washing conditions created by a
rain jet of water (protection IPX3).

TECHNICAL DATA
2.1
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This slicer has been designed to provide:
- Possibility to cut without interruption any type of sausages, ham, meat, cheese and all the products that can
be blocked on the carriage.
- Safety in operation, cleaning and maintenance.
- Maximum hygiene, thanks to the meticulous design of components in contact with the foodstuff and by the
use of rustproof materials.
- High cutting precision.
- Maximum cutting capability.
- Toughness of all the parts.
- Ergonomic and rational movements for the maximum ease of use.
- Use at temperatures between 5°C and 40°C (41.0 to 104.0 °F).
