slices per minute (MAX).
Note that delicate food products have to be sliced using a slower carriage speed.
Slicing of end pieces
Be sure to cut off the end
piece from the foodstuff

the foodstuff with the end
left on. Alternatively, turn the
original cutting side of the food
product to face the end piece
holder.
