OPERATORS CARE OF SLICER
CLEANING
1.
Warning:
Never touch the knife edge. Always keep your hands, fingers and arms clear of the
knife.
2.
Warning:
Turn the slicer OFF and disconnect the power supply cord.
3. Turn the slice adjustment knob (Figure 3 [1]) to the fully closed position (beyond “0”) so the
knife edge is not exposed. While holding the adjustment knob all the way closed, loosen the
carriage arm knob (Figure 1 [5]). The carriage may now be tilted away from the fence to the
cleaning position. Note that with the carriage tilted the fence becomes locked in the cleaning
position which covers the forward portion of the knife.
4.
Caution:
Remove the last slice device (Figure 12 [3]), which may be washed in a sink, by
loosening the knobs (Figure 12 [4]). Use only warm water and mild soap. Rinse the carriage
assembly with warm water and dry thoroughly using a clean soft cloth. Never wash the slicer or
any of its parts in a dish washing machine or the clear protective finish will be damaged.
5.
Warning:
Wash the body of the slicer using warm water and mild soap with a clean soft cloth.
Under no circumstances should the slicer be hose rinsed.
6. Remove the knife guard (Figure 1 [14]) by loosening the knife guard knob (Figure 10 [35]).
Carefully lift the guard by the handle (Figure 10 [18]) and remove the guard.
7. Rotate the meat deflector (Figure 10 [7]) by swinging it away from the back of the blade.
8.
Warning:
CAREFULLY wash the front and rear of the knife with a cloth using warm water
and mild soap. CAREFULLY wash between the knife edge and the protective guard
(Figure 1 [13]) using a soft cloth inserted between the knife edge and the guard on both the front
and the rear of the knife using extreme caution to never touch the knife edge. Rinse with warm
water applied with a cloth and dry thoroughly with a clean soft cloth.
9.
Caution:
Following cleaning, a commercial non-toxic sanitizer may be wiped on the clean
surfaces with a soft clean cloth or sprayed as recommended on the container label. It is
important that the sanitizer be compatible with anodized aluminum or the clear protective finish
on the slicer will be damaged. The surface should be wetted completely, but not to the point of
running or puddling.
10.
Warning:
Replace the knife guard. Never leave the slicer without the knife guard installed!
11. Return the meat deflector to it’s original position. Lower the carriage to the operating position
and tighten the carriage arm knob.
