OPERATION

SAFETY

SAFETY DEVICES INCORPORATED IN THIS SLICER MUST BE IN THEIR CORRECT OPERATING POSITIONS ANYTIME THE SLICER IS IN USE.

The TOP KNIFE COVER must be in position and secured with the LATCH KNOB (Fig. 2). The RING GUARD is not removable. The DEFLECTOR, mounted below the slicer knife, can be removed for cleaning.

The MEAT GRIP (Fig. 2) must be used when slicing short ends to keep your hand(s) away from the knife.

When the slicer is not running, the INDEX KNOB (Fig. 2) must be turned back below zero (fully clockwise). The GAUGE PLATE will then cover the knife edge.

Always UNPLUG the POWER CORD before cleaning or moving the Slicer.

SLICING — MODEL 2812

With the Gauge Plate fully closed, pull the Carriage all the way toward you until it reaches its stop. With the Meat Grip out of the way, place the product to be sliced on the Carriage Tray. Set the Meat Grip against the product.

If the Meat Grip is not needed, it may be stored out of the way by rotating it behind the top of the Carriage Tray where it can rest on the Retaining Clip (Fig. 2).

Adjust the Gauge Plate to obtain the desired slice thickness by turning the Index Knob (Fig. 2). The numbers on the Index Knob do not indicate actual measurements but may be used for reference to duplicate slice thickness. Turn the slicer on by pulling the Switch Knob (Fig. 2) forward until it starts and then releasing it. Slicer will not stay on unless the gauge plate is opened first. Unless the Gauge Plate is opened before pulling the Switch Knob on, the slicer will not continue to run when the Switch Knob is released.

Use either Carriage Tray Handle (Fig. 2) to push the Carriage back and forth to slice.

Turn the slicer off by pushing the Switch Knob or by closing the Gauge Plate.
