CAUTION: Use the slicer only for slicing normal household foods. Do not
use the slicer for slicing deeply-frozen foods, bones, and foods with large
seeds or for slicing packaged foods.
Note: The cutting blade continues to rotate after the slicer has been
switched off. (Never use the slicer for more than 10 minutes continuously.)
CAUTION: To safeguard your fingers, always use the feed table and the
food grip when it is possible. This may not be possible when slicing large
or awkward shaped foods
– please be very careful should this be the case
to prevent possible injury.
REMOVING THE CUTTING BLADE
1. To stop the slicer, use the On/Off switch. Wait for the blade to stop spinning
before placing more food on the feed table.
2. Rotate the blade lock clockwise from the blade centre and then pull out the
blade. When taking out the blade make sure that you handle it by the centre for
safety purposes.
HANDY HINTS AND TIPS
To slice meats wafer thin, freeze them thoroughly for 2 to 4 hours before slicing.
Meats should be boneless. Fruit should be free of seeds.
Foods with an uneven texture like fish and thin steaks are often difficult to slice.
To make preserves, the slicer can quickly cut cucumbers, onions or other fruit.
Hot Roasts: Beef, Pork, Lamb or Ham:-
When slicing warm boneless roasts, remove them from the oven at least 15 to 20
minutes before slicing.
If the roast is very big, cut it to fit the food tray. If the roast is tied, remove the strings
one by one before cutting, as the relevant string gets near to the blade.
NOTE: Always turn the
food slicer to the “OFF” or “0” position before removing the
strings from roasts.
