ADJUSTMENTS
SLICES VARY IN THICKNESS
Remove rear inspection plate from the slicer. With a wrench loosen, but do not remove,
the hex head capscrews in the feet of each of the top and bottom blade frames.
Loosen the setscrews in the rocker frame fixed collars. See illustration below.
Gently tap the collar with a small mallet to the right or left until the blades are centered
in
the slots in the top guard. Tighten the setscrew and capscrews in the blade frame feet
securely. Replace the rear inpsection plate.
ADJUSTING THE GAS SPRING
CAUTION
FREQUENT ADJUSTMENT OF THE GAS SPRING IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
The gas spring must be removed and relocated to adjust its force. To remove the gas
spring, see “Replacing the Gas Spring” in the maintenance section. There are two gas
spring pins welded into the frame. The pin furthest from the front of the machine, (the
standard position), should be used whenever possible. The standard position gives a
gentle force at the beginning of the slicing operation, (when it is most needed), which
will allow the knives to start cutting and to prevent damage to the product. It also
provides the most force at the end of the stroke to allow the cradle to finish its upward
travel.
