5.2 - LOADING AND CUTTING THE PRODUCT
Adhere to the following procedure:
1. Lift the goods presser, load the goods
on the hopper, bringing it close to the
thickness gauge, block it with theproper
toothed arm;
2. regulate the desired thickness of the cut
with the graduated hand grip;
3. assume a correct position to avoid acci-
dent: place the right hand on the goods
presser hand grip and, then the left hand
next to the slice guard to take the cut
product
(without touching the blade)
;
the body must beperpendicular to the
work plane (Fig. n°39).
WARNING: Do not assume positions
which bring body parts in direct
contact with the blade (ex. Fig. n°40);
4. then push the “ON” push-button;
5. push the carriage ( goods pres-
ser arm + stem) gently towards the bla-
de, without applying excessive pressure
on the goods with the goods presser
arm. The goods will easily enter the bla-
de, and the slice guided by the proper
sliceguard will detach and fall on the
plane (Fig. n°41);
6. avoid running the slicer when empty;
7. at the end of the cutting operation, stop
the machine by putting the switch in the
“OFF” position and put the graduated
hand grip at “0”;
8. after slicing, do not leave the food lying
on the product. Store the food that has
just been sliced in a place suitable for its
preservation.
9. Carry out resharpening the blade as so-
on as the cut product has a threaded or
rough surface, therefore thecutting effort
increases (
chapter 5.3
).
WARNING:
The goods to be cut are loaded on the hopper only with the graduated hand
grip at “0” and the motor stopped, being careful with the blade and the points.

2.2 - POSITIONING
Position the pallet, with the slicer, on a
flat surface and take off (a) the cap
from the slicer (Fig. n°12).
At this point turn the machine on its
side (Fig. n°13) and unscrew, with the
proper wrench provided, the 4 nuts
which fasten the slicer. Remove the 4
washers and unscrew the 4 fastening
tie rods on the wooden pallet. Take off
the pallet and fasten the 4 feet provi-
ded. Finally, put the cap in its place.
Position the slicer in the predestined
place.
The dimensions indicated in Tab. 1-2-3
(according to the model) must be kept
in mind for the plane where the slicer
will be installed, therefore it must be
wide enough, well-levelled, dry,
smooth, robust, stable about 80 cm
high off the ground and at least 20 cm
from walls, objects, shelves, etc. (Fig.
n°14) in respect to the space
necessary for its use and safeguarding.
Furthermore the machine must be placed
in an environment with a maximum humidity
of 75%, not salty and with a temperature
b5°C and +35°C; in any case in
environments which do not lead to devia-
tions of the above.
Make sure the graduated hand grip is in
posiion “0”.
Check the alignment of the blade-plane thi-
ckness gauge by running a finger (Fig. n°
16) from the blade towards the thickness
gauge plane (never in the opposite
direction). Unscrew and screw the feet on
the operator’s side until the correct ali-
gnment is found (Fig. n°17).
