Operation
Sliding product holder faster with lever
By lowering and holding in position the lever (Fig. 11, #11) you can quickly move the product holder (Fig. 11,
#4) towards or away from the blade (Fig. 11, #16) (with product).
The operation is quicker than when using the handwheel (Fig. 11, #12).
Pusher vertical slide lever
By keeping pressed the lower button (Fig. 11, #10a) for the vertical slide lever (Fig. 11, #10) you can quickly
raise or lower the pusher (Fig. 11, #3).
USING THE SLICER
WARNING:
• DO NOT use the slicer if not fully physically and mentally capable.
• DO NOT allow anyone to come near or touch the slicer while in operation.
• Be extremely careful when loading/unloading the product from the product holder and when
slicing.
PAY ATTENTION AT ALL TIMES!
PLACING PRODUCT ON PRODUCT HOLDER
• Turn the flywheel (Fig. 12, #7) in order to move the carriage (Fig. 12, #5) to its forward limit (towards the
operator).
• Move the product holder (Fig. 13, #4) the farthest it can go from the blade using either the handwheel (Fig.
13, #12) or the fast forward lever (Fig. 13, #11).
• Position the product to be sliced on the product holder (Fig. 14a, #4) and hold in place with the pusher (Fig.
14a, #3) (so that it is fixed), whilst adjusting the height.
Failure to hold the product firmly in place on the product holder could cause the machine to cut uneven slices.
• Turn the knob (Fig. 14b, #13) in order to set the required slice thickness.
• Bring the product holder (Fig. 15, #4) (with the product) back from its limit of travel (towards the blade)
using either the handwheel (Fig. 15, #12) or the fast forward lever (Fig. 15, #11).
Draw the product holder (Fig. 15, #4) closer to the blade leaving a space between the product to be sliced and
the blade of 0.5 cm to 1.0 cm.
SLICING THE PRODUCT
• Move the blade guard (Fig. 16, #9) away from its seat by loosening the knob (Fig. 16, #9a) lifting up and
placing on the flange away from the blade, remember to tighten the knob after moving the guard.
WARNING:
Exercise great caution if the blade guard (Fig. 16, #9) is not fitted; the blade (Fig. 16, #16) is extremely
sharp.
