THICKNESS ADJUSTMENT

Note: If the thickness knob is closed, then the slicer must be turned on before the thickness knob can be turned.

1.Thickness adjustment allows you to vary the thickness of the slices from paper thin to more than 3/4 of an inch. To make thinner slices, turn the thicknss control knob to the right. For thicker slices, turn the knob to the left.

2.The numbers on the knob will help you set the slicer to the thickness that’s “just right” for a product. The numbers and thickness may vary slightly from one machine to the next. If you’re slicing meat or cheese for customers, you can ask them how thick they want it, and adjust the slicer to meet their request.

4.For manual operation, switch slicer ON and grasp the product table handle, moving the table back and forth.
