SETTING UP / USING
• The vegetable slicer is supplied with the ejector fi tted on the
drive shaft. Press the cover latch upwards and raise the cover
up to the clip stop to remove the ejector.
Before starting any work, always make sure the cutting chamber,
the drive shaft, the ejector, the plate and the grid are clean.
1) For slicing, thin slicing, grating and stripping
• Fit the cutting chamber.
• Fit the ejector onto the drive shaft fl at.
• Install the required plate (slicer, stripper or grater).
- Turn the plate in a clockwise direction to fi nd the bayonet
opening, then continue in the same direction until the pin
stop.
- Close the cover and make sure it is locked.
- To remove the plate, turn in the opposite direction and raise it
using the fi nger grips on its outside. If it remains stuck, see §
5.3.
2) For cutting chips or cubes
• Fit the cutting chamber.
• Fit the ejector (see § above).
• Place the chosen grid in its housing making sure that it does
not wobble (cleanliness of the supports).

There is a risk of cuts with all these operations. Never
force and keep the hands at a reasonable distance
from the knives.

• Then install the chosen plate and close the cover.
•
Recommendation: For cutting products of different hardnesses
with an
MT
grid, start by cutting the soft products, as these cannot
push cubes of hard products held in the grid. For hard products of
the carrot or celery type, or very adherent products of the cheese
type, it is recommended that the small hopper is used.
3) Operating
• Control panel:
A
"Off" button.
B
1 speed "On" button
C
Pulse-operation "On" button
D
2 speed "On" button
E - F
Speed selection button. Variable-speed model.
G
Speed display.
The slicer can be operated if:
- the hopper is locked
- the ram is lowered
a) Continual operation:
- start by pressing
B
: speed 1
- start by pressing
D
: speed 2 (depending on model)
b) Pulse operation:
- start by pressing
C
c) Variable speed:
- Speed selection on
G
by pressing buttons
E
and
F
.
Note:
In the event of a prolonged stop over several days, disconnect
the appliance so that the electronic variable speed unit is not
left live.
d) Stopping:
- Button
A
must be used when the work is fi nished.
The vegetable will only operate if the cover is closed.
- Keep the pusher inside of the lever-ram as this prevents pro-
ducts from coming back up.
- Press the ON button.
- Raise the lever-ram
- When the ram comes out of the hopper, the motor immediately
stops, which means that products can be changed in complete
safety.
- On lowering the lever, the vegetable slicer starts automati-
cally.

HOPPER SELECTION AND FUNCTIONS
1) Large hopper with hinged lever-ram.
A
Cutting into slices
B
Stripping
C
Grating
- Processing large dimension products
(Maximum 160 x 80 mm, corresponding to 1/4 cabbage).
• Manual loading is by introducing the products either singly or
in handfuls, making sure they are correctly positioned to prevent
any incorrect cutting. Rest "delicate" products (tomatoes, citrus
fruit, etc.) against the side wall.
2) Small hopper with removable pusher.
• For cutting long products into slices (carrots, chicory, cucum-
bers, leaks, etc.) maximum opening Ø 52 mm.

Never introduce the hand or a hard body into the hopper with
the machine on.

For cutting into slices, always present long products by their
tips.
• Manual loading is by introducing the products vertically into
the small hopper, either singly or in handfuls.
• Recommendations to prevent:
- A sloping, uneven cut: arrange fi ne products "head-to-tail".
- Jamming: cut the vegetable ends.

USING THE LARGE HOPPER AND THE LEVER-RAM
For thin slicing and slicing.
- Using the lever-ram, follow the products into the hopper as far
as the lower stop, using gradual force on the lever-ram.
- Raise the lever-ram and start a new cycle.
- When the work is fi nished, press the OFF button.
Note: Use gradual force to follow through with the lever-ram
depending on:
- the product to be processed (soft product = light force),
- the cutting equipment selected (a grater requires more force
than a slicing plate).

USING THE SMALL HOPPER AND THE PUSHER
- Leave the lever-ram in the down position and unlock the
pusher.
- Press the ON button to start.
- Remove the pusher with one hand and load the products with
the other.
- Push the products with the pusher and start a new cycle.
- When the work is fi nished, press the OFF button.
