797-N BREAD SLICER CASTER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Place blocks on the floor approximately (8) and (38) inches from the discharge side of the slicer, see the illustration below. Lower the hold-down to its lowest position and tighten the adjustment knob to prevent the outfeed table from swinging out. With one person on each side of the slicer, gently lower the slicer onto the blocks.

797-N BREAD SLICER On all slicers equipped with either the Power Belt infeed chute option, or a Model 1179S bagger, a counterweight must be attached to the caster brackets on the right-hand side of the machine, (as viewed from the outfeed side of the slicer). See the above illustration.
797-N BREAD SLICER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION ALWAYS USE CARE WHENEVER WORKING NEAR THE CUTTING KNIVES. Adjusting the Gravity Feed Slicer’s Holddown, (Models 797-32N & 797-48N) Loosen the holddown adjustment knob. Adjust the holddown so that the product just clears the bottom edge of the holddown as it passes through the cutting knives. Tighten the holddown adjustment knob when the holddown is in the desired location.
797-N BREAD SLICER Adjusting the Slicer for Product Length Using a typical product, adjust the infeed chute side guides by applying hand pressure. See the next illustration. Set the side guides approximately 1/8 inch wider than the longest expected product. Adjusting the Outfeed Side Guides on a Standard Outfeed Table Adjust the side guide extensions so that they are approximately 1/4 inch from the cutting knives.
797-N BREAD SLICER NOTE OPTIONAL OUTFEED TABLE GUIDES ARE ADJUSTED WITH HAND PRESSURE IN A FASHION SIMILAR TO THAT OF THE INFEED GUIDES. AS WITH THE STANDARD OUTFEED TABLE ALIGN THE OUTFEED GUIDES WITH THE INFEED GUIDES. Operating a Gravity Feed Slicer Once the slicer has been properly adjusted for product clearance, the infeed chute may be loaded with the product to be sliced.
797-N BREAD SLICER NOTE THE GRAVITY FEED SLICER’S OPTIMUM OPERATING EFFICIENCY WILL BE MAINTAINED BY ENSURING THAT THE INFEED CHUTE IS KEPT FULLY LOADED. THE ACTUAL SPEED OF SLICING IS DEPENDENT ON THE NUMBER OF PRODUCTS IN POSITION ON THE INFEED CHUTE, SHARPNESS OF CUTTING KNIVES, AND TEXTURE OF THE PRODUCT.
Page 14
797-N BREAD SLICER Operating the Gravity Feed’s Last Loaf Pusher (continued) CAUTION THE KNIVES ARE EXTREMELY SHARP. DO NOT TOUCH MOVING OR STATIONARY KNIVES. Once the last loaf pusher has fed the product into the cutting knives as far as it can, it may be necessary to pull the product the rest of the way through the knives by hand.

Page 23
797-N BREAD SLICER Removing the Blade Frames (Continued) CAUTION THE BLADES ARE EXTREMELY SHARP. ALWAYS HANDLE BLADE FRAMES WITH CARE. The blade frame can now be carefully lifted from the slicer. See below. Removal of the infeed side blade frame is accomplished in a similar fashion. However the chute guard must first be removed by removing the four knobs which hold it in place this will allow access to the locking cams.
Page 24
797-N BREAD SLICER Removing the Blade Frames (Continued) Replacement of the blade frames is done by reversing the removal procedures. Ensure That the feet of the blade frames rest snuggly on the swing shafts and that you have included the Belleville washers with the eye bolts. NOTE WHEN INSTALLING THE BELLEVILLE WASHERS, THEY MUST BE PLACED SO THAT THE CROWN IS UP AS SHOWN IN THE ILLUSTRATION BELOW.
797-N BREAD SLICER Changing the Blades WARNING ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE SLICER FROM THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY TYPE OF MAINTENANCE TASK. CAUTION THE BLADES ARE EXTREMELY SHARP.

797-N BREAD SLICER Changing the Blades (Continued) The new knife can be installed by reversing the removal procedure. A paper clip can be used to hold the knife in position on the lower pin to ease installation. See the illustration below.
797-N BREAD SLICER Tightening the Belt WARNING ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE SLICER FROM THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY TYPE OF MAINTENANCE TASK. CAUTION OVER-TIGHTENING THE DRIVE BELT MAY CAUSE BEARING OR MOTOR FAILURE. Remove the crumb tray from the slicer and swing out the discharge table. See the illustration below.
Page 28
797-N BREAD SLICER Tightening the Belt (Continued) Loosen the lockbolt located below the belt adjustment mechanism. See the next illustration. Locate the adjustment bolt below the belt and turn it counter clockwise with a wrench to increase tension on the belt or clockwise to reduce tension on the belt. The drive belt should be just tight enough that, using moderate finger pressure, it would deflect about 3/8 of an inch when pressed midway between the motor drive pulley and the driven pulley.
797-N BREAD SLICER Replacing the Belt WARNING ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE SLICER FROM THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY TYPE OF MAINTENANCE TASK. Referring to the “Tightening the Belt” section above, remove the crumb tray, swing out the discharge table, and reduce the tension on the belt by turning the adjusting bolt on the tightening mechanism clockwise until the belt can be slipped off from the motor pulley.
797-N BREAD SLICER Adjusting the Blade Frames When Slices Vary in Thickness WARNING ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE SLICER FROM THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY TYPE OF MAINTENANCE TASK.
