PLATE UNITS - ASSEMBLY AND USE
CAUTION: Again, wear hand protection when working with these units.
THE ADJUSTABLE SLICER PLATE UNIT -
To assemble the slicer plate, see Figure 2 and Diagram 5 component assembly order and fit as shown. The plate, when assembled, can be
adjusted to slice product to different thicknesses by turning the "adjusting nut" per the directions accompanying Diagram 5.
WARNING: Adjustments for thickness must never be attempted while the VS9 is under power or severe personal injury can occur. See
safety precautions - Paragraph 2.
GRATER, SHREDDER AND JULIENNE PLATE UNITS [Figure 3]
To fit the plate of your choice to the hub and shaft [Figure 3], line up the key hole slots on the plate with the locating pins on the hub as
shown below . Slip the plate over the pins and secure it by turning the plate in a clockwise direction until it shoulders up firmly on the pins.
This can be done most safely by resting the plate face down on a butcher's block and turning the hub home from above.

ALIGNMENT
Make sure that the "Thrust Bearing" [Figure 3 (3)] is properly positioned on the shaft. Make sure that the set screw
[Figure 3 (2)] on the thrust bearing is securely snugged. A loose thrust bearing will allow clatter and damage the VS9.
Do not remove thrust bearing for cleaning.
