REMOVAL OF KNIFE
IMPORTANT: Extreme caution must be used when

you razor sharp and thus may cause severe
injury unless proper care is exercised.

first. (See removal of blade sharpener.)
2. Remove cover as described above.
3. Using a standard screwdriver, loosen and remove three
mounting screws. (fig. 8).
4. Carefully, remove knife.

This "Warning" label
is affixed to your
unit. Do Not Remove.
USING YOUR NEW SLICER
Your slicer motor is designed to be used on 110-120
volts, 60 cycle as indicated on the nameplate.
Be sure the voltage is the same before plugging into
outlet.
1. Place food on platform (1) (fig. 10).
2. Set regulator knob for desired slice thickness and start
slicer. (If your slicer is equipped with the regulator knob
"shut-off" option, the motor can be turned "on" or "off" with
the use of the regulator knob while toggle switch is in "on"
position. Always turn toggle switch to "OFF" position when
slicer is not in use.)
3. Using platform reciprocating handle (8) move platform (1)
back and forth for every slice. NOTE:
push platform far enough forward to complete the slice,
then pull back until the food being cut clears the cutting
edge of the knife (fig. 10).
Your electric slicer is gravity fed and, therefore, it does not
require use of the Food Pusher. However, use of the food
pusher is important to prevent personal injury, particularly
when slicing small pieces of food. As a rule —
ALWAYS USE FOOD PUSHER. (9) NEVER
FEED FOOD BY HAND (fig. 6.).

LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
Your new slicer will offer years of maintenance free operation
with proper care and use. Your motor needs no lubrication. To
insure continued smooth operation, the platform guide rod
should be lubricated about every two months by applying about
ten drops of lightweight oil Item (12) fig. 13.
CLEANING
Do not immerse assembled slicer or base assembly in water. Keep
spray cleaners and running water away from switch area, pully/belt
cover and motor mounting/housing area. Do not use abrasive
cleaners.
1. Wash base with hot soapy water and dry thoroughly.
2. Clean all remaining parts with hot soapy water and dry.
3. When cleaning sharpener be sure stone and deburrer plate is free
of grease and dry thoroughly.
