Operating Instructions
WARNING
•
Never touch the blade when the slicer is in operation to avoid serious cuts or personal injury.
•
Always use the food pusher (except perhaps for very large pieces of food). Press food to be
sliced forward using the food pusher (do not use excessive force).
•
Use food slicer only for slicing normal household foods and no other purposes. Do not use
the slicer for slicing deep-frozen foods, bones, foods with large kernels or for slicing
packaged foods.
•
Never use the slicer for more than 10 minutes continuously.
•
The cutting blade continues to rotate after the slicer has been switched off. Do not attempt
to stop the cutting blade. Wait for the cutting blade to come to a complete stop before
handling.
•
For reasons of safety the thickness adjustment knob must be returned to the “P” setting after use.
•
Clean according to cleaning directions before and after each use.
1. Make sure blade locking screw is secure and tight.
2. Place the meat slicer on a flat stable surface. Make sure slicer is in “OFF” position. Plug the
appliance into a properly rated electrical outlet (120V AC, 15 Amps, 60 Hz).
3. Place a tray or platter behind the meat slicer and blade to collect food as it is sliced.
4. Place food onto the sliding food carriage between the guide plate and the food pusher. To avoid
injury, ALWAYS use the food pusher handle.
5. Turn the thickness adjustment knob (3) in Figure A, to set the desired cutting thickness.
6. Activate the food slicer by placing the power switch to the “ON” position.
7. Begin slicing by placing the food between the food pusher and the guide plate. Press the food to
be sliced with the food pusher lightly against the guide plate. Move the sliding food carriage along
the carriage shaft to the right, guiding food across the cutting blade, until the carriage stops.
8. Return the sliding food carriage to its starting position. Repeat these steps until the desired
amount of food has been sliced.
9. Power down the food slicer by pushing the power button to the “OFF” position. Allow enough
time for the cutting blade to come to a complete stop before handling.
10. Always unplug meat slicer from power source when the meat slicer is not in use.
11. For safety, set the thickness adjustment knob to “P” to nest the edge of the cutting blade
behind the food guide for safety and storage
