Introduction

This manual contains instructions for the installation, operation, care, and sharpening

of the 8713S premium slicer. It is recommended that all operators familiarize

themselves with this manual prior to operating the slicer.

Inspection:

All UNIVEX slicers are inspected and tested at the factory; however, they should be

inspected carefully by the person making the installation for loose, damaged or broken parts. Any 

damages, imperfections or shortages should be reported to the dealer or UNIVEX and shipping 

carrier.

Warning

: After slicer has been inspected, wash slicer completely with warm water and

mild soap. For safety, follow the cleaning instructions on Page 6.

Installation:

The most efficient installation of your slicer will depend upon the layout of your kitchen. Locate 

your slicer where it will save steps for the operator and be sure to provide sufficient clearance 

around it for ease of maintenance and cleaning, as well as for efficient and safe use. Ensure the

surface is level and flat before installation. Slicer should be operated on a sturdy bench or table 

with the height determined to suit the operator. It is most important that the forearm of the operator 

be at the proper level for ease and safety of operation, as well as for maximum production. This 

height is considered optimum when the carriage handle (Overview [11]) of the slicer is at 

approximately the height of the operator's elbow when standing.

Important:

Warning/Caution:

 Before making electrical connections, CHECK the specifications on the 

nameplate to make sure that they agree with those on your electrical service. A grounding type 

three-terminal plug is provided for safety. If you do not have a mating receptacle, have a qualified 

electrician provide one with grounding provisions in accordance with local safety codes.

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS:

It is a violation of United States Department of Labor regulations to permit operation of the slicer

by any person under the age of 18 years.

Warning:

 

The slicer knife is extremely sharp! Never touch the knife, always keep hands and fingers clear of 

the knife. Never run slicer without the guard and all other parts in place and securely fastened. 

Take extra care to avoid accidents by keeping the knife guard and sharpening assembly cover ON 

at all times. When the machine is not in use, the slice adjustment knob should be turned fully back 

to the closed position (beyond "0") so that the knife edge is not exposed

Observe the cleaning instructions on Page 6 for best results and for safety. Also remember to 

always turn off the slicer and disconnect the electrical supply cord before cleaning. When slicing, 

always work the carriage using only the carriage arm handle (Overview [11]). Do not hold or push 

the carriage from any other place.
