Operating the Slicer
1. Plug cord only into 120V three prong grounded AC outlet. Do not use a 3 to 2 prong adapter.
2. Hold the long handle of the food pusher (10) as shown in Figure 5.
3. To start the blade, turn on the power with your left hand by depressing the Power Switch (2)
(see Figure 3.)
4. Set the Thickness Control Knob (1) initially to a thin setting. Make a slice and then adjust to your
desired thickness.
5. Now with the firm grip on the food carriage and light pressure against the food pusher advance the
food into contact with the rotating blade by slowly moving the carriage forward (Fig. 5). The food will
be sliced and the slices will drop into a tray or plate placed on the slicer base on the opposite side of
the blade. If the slice thickness needs to be adjusted, do so by rotating the Thickness Control Knob
(1). Rotating the Knob clockwise reduces the slice thickness.
6. If you continue slicing until the food loaf is nearly expended, you will find you are unable to cut further.
Some food will remain unsliced. Do not attempt to apply excess pressure on the food pusher or to
cut any further! Shut off the power
(3), turn the thickness control knob
to "zero" and remove the
food remainder.
Never try to hold the food by
hand when slicing. You can cut
yourself seriously. Always use the
carriage and food pusher as
shown in Figure 5.
7. Do not operate the slicer without
food on the food carriage.
8. When slices become rough,
incomplete or frayed and cuttings
becomes difficult, it is time to
consider resharpening the blade
(see the Sharpening Section).
Figure 5. Keep hands behind guards when slicing.
