OPERATION

Before you Begin

Inspect the slicer to verify all components are installed. Confirm the
seal is in place and in good condition. Do not use the slicer if the
components are not in good condition. Contact an authorized Vollrath
service agency service the equipment.

Load the Slicer

1. Slide the carriage tray to the load/start position (closest to the

operator).

2. Lift the product grip and place the food onto the carriage tray and in

contact with the gauge plate.

3. Place the product grip either on top or behind the food to be sliced.

4. Set the desired slice thickness using the indexing control.

5. Press and release the ON (—) button.

Slice Food

1. Use the carriage handle to push the carriage tray back and forth to

slice the food.

Turn Off Slicer

1. Turn the index control to the zero (0) position so the gauge plate

protects the blade edge.

2. Press and release the OFF (O) button.

OVERLOAD RESET SWITCH

If the slicer becomes overloaded the reset switch stops the slicer to
protect the motor. In case of overload:

1. Press and release the OFF (O) button.
2. Remove the food that caused the overload. If necessary, clean the

equipment. See “Clean and Sanitize the Slicer” on page 4.

3. Press and release the reset button, located on the bottom of the

slicer.

4. Press and release the ON (—) button to resume operation.

Reset should be a rare occurrence and should be due to overloading the
slicer. Contact a Vollrath authorized repair service center if the switch is
activating often during normal use.
