User Maintenance Instructions (cont.)
10. Do not remove the White lubricant on
the gears and Motor Assembly. The
lubricant is used to reduce the friction
and noise of the gears. Removal of the
lubricant will reduce the cutting
performance and increase the operating
noise. If the lubricant has been removed,
a thin film of margarine or food-grade
lubricant may be applied. Never apply
industrial-use or automotive-use
lubricants as they may not be safe for
consumption and may damage the gears.
11. Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning
must be performed by a qualified appliance repair technician.
Helpful Hints
The Food Slicer can be used to cut meat, cheese, vegetables or bread.
1.
Roasts:
Beef, pork, poultry and lamb -- Allow roasts to stand for
20 minutes after removing from the oven before slicing.
2.
Bulk Bacon:
With a sharp knife, remove the rind from
"thoroughly chilled" bacon. Trim bacon to fit securely on Feeder,
fat side down.
3.
Cheese and cold cuts:
Slice as needed to retain flavor. Remove
the plastic or hard casing from "well chilled" food before slicing.
Use gentle pressure for uniform slices.
4.
When you are going to slice very thin food, unplug the unit and
moisten the Blade with a damp cloth; this helps to prevent
sticking. If cheese builds up on the Blade or under the Blade
Cover, unplug the slicer and wipe the Blade clean with a damp
cloth.
5.
When slicing food that is not uniform in size, always slice with the
largest side first.
6.
Vegetables and fruits:
Slice potatoes, tomatoes, carrots,
cucumbers, cabbage, lettuce, eggplant, squash and zucchini in a
matter of minutes.
7.
Breads:
Do not use excessive pressure or squeeze the loaf. Trim
or cut bread to fit comfortably on the Feeder. Move the loaf of
bread smoothly through the blade with continuous "gentle"
pressure on the loaf.
