CLEANING:
To avoid damaging the VS9’s highly polished finish, never put any VS9 component through a dish-
washing machine. Wearing hand protection, wash all components by hand with a mild soap and water
solution. Use a long handled scrub brush on all plate units to avoid cutting fingers. Do not rest knives,
grater plates, or shredding plates on any surface that will mar. Do not remove thrust bearings from
julienne or shredder plate shafts. Dry component parts with a soft cloth.
For the best and most sanitary product, clean the VS9 immediately after use or before switching food
products.
Never hose down the VS2000 Vegetable Slicer/Shredder. Hosing down the VS2000 invites electrical
shock.
LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS
FIGURE 9
Univex recommends the use of Petrol-Gel for all your food preparation equipment. It may be
purchased at your local food equipment supply company, or purchased directly from Univex
Corporation (Part No.4400408)
After every cleaning apply a thin coating of sanitary petroleum jelly to all bearing surfaces. Do not use
vegetable oil. It becomes gummy. If adjusting nuts and screws become stiff to work with, apply a drop
of sanitary mineral oil.
