ADJUSTING THE SLICING THICKNESS

NOTE: This lever only works with the Adjustable Slicing Disc. Changing thickness settings with
other discs or Blades installed will have no effect on operation.
In addition to the position of the lever, it is possible to change the thickness of your slices by
changing pressure on the food item when guiding it into the Feed Tube. Use more pressure for
a thicker slice, or use less pressure for a thinner slice.
