Maintenance
•
Using a mild soap, hot water solution, and a clean cloth, wipe all surfaces of the slicer.
•
Thoroughly rinse it with another clean cloth and fresh water.
•
Remove the blade cover by removing the hand knob (7).
• With the hand knob removed, grasp the edge of the blade cover and carefully lift it straight off the knife.
WARNING
: The slicer blade is very sharp. Use extreme caution when working near the blade.
• CAREFULLY wash both sides of the blade with the slice thickness control turned fully clockwise.
• Wash the blade by wiping outward from the center.
• ALWAYS rinse the blade thoroughly using fresh water and a clean cloth. Never use steel pads to clean the
blade. Wash and thoroughly rinse the removed components prior to reassembling them.
•
DO NOT wash any slicer components in a dishwasher.
BLADE SHARPENING
Attention
: Use protection gloves.
Your slicer blade will provide long service in normal deli, food store, or commercial kitchen use. However, in
high volume applications where it is a practice to sharpen the blade frequently or even daily, the blade will be
expended in a shorter time.
•
Before using the sharpener, make sure that the front and back side of the knife edge is clean and free of
grease.
•
To sharpen knife:
a) Be sure that the slicer has been switched off.
b) Rotate the slice thickness control (4) into “O” position, so that the thickness plate (5) protects the knife
(Fig. 2).
•
Lift up the sharpener cover (1)
(Fig. 2).
•
Disengage the pin (7) and rotate the sharpener (3)
(Fig. 3).
•
The sharpener, then, goes into its sharpening position
(Fig. 4).
• To sharpen, turn the switch first in the ON position, so that the knife turns. Then, slowly rotate the lever
which lets both stones go in contact with the knife; sharpening and trimming are made at the same time
(Fig. 5).
•
Replace the sharpener to normal horizontal position by lifting the pin (7) and close the cover
(Fig. 6).
• The grinding stone (6), fitted on its pin, can be easily removed by just drawing it
(Fig. 7).
To get a nice
sharpening, the grinding stone must be clean and free of grease.
•
The sharpening time depends on the wear of the knife. To get a good result, the time needed is 10 to 15
seconds. A longer sharpening reduce the duration of the knife and gives no advantage.
• Wipe the slicer with a clean damp cloth to remove any grinding particles.
LUBRICATION
•
The rod on which the product holder slides, which is underneath the slicer, should be lubricated weekly with
several drops of oil. Stop the carriage at the end of the stroke nearest the operator and pour the lubricant
into the special oiler. DO NOT use vegetable oil.
•
Occasionally, the slice thickness plate slide rod should be coated lightly with lubricant.
•
Turn the slice thickness control fully counterclockwise when lubricating this slide rod and then turn it fully
