SHARP KNIFE BLADE
TO AVOID SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY:
•
ALWAYS turn off slicer and unplug the power cord before cleaning or servicing.
•

•
ALWAYS turn slice thickness dial completely clockwise to close the slicer table and covers
the knife edge.
Your slicer should be cleaned and sanitized as often as necessary or at least once per day. Slicer

wear non-cutting safety gloves during the cleaning operation.
•
DO NOT put components in dishwasher.
•
DO NOT hose down or pressure wash any slicer part.

base or components.
DISASSEMBLY & CLEANING:
To begin the cleaning procedure, disassemble the following components:
1. FOOD CHUTE: Remove the food chute by rotating the food chute
release knob (Fig. 9-1) counterclockwise until it is completely removed.
Remove the food chute from the slicer (Fig. 9-2).
2. SLICE DEFLECTOR: The slice deflector can be removed by
unscrewing the screw knob.
3. PRODUCT RECEIVING TRAY: Remove the product receiving tray
from the base of the slicer for cleaning.
BE ALERT. The next steps will expose the knife.

counterclockwise until it releases. The knob will not come out completely (Fig. 9-3).
While holding the knobs on the knife cover, carefully lift the knife cover straight up
away from the blade.
