CLEANING
This machine MUST be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized after each day’s operation or anytime it is not to be used for an extended period of time.
WARNING: THE SLICER KNIFE IS VERY SHARP. EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN WORKING NEAR THE KNIFE.
WARNING: UNPLUG MACHINE POWER CORD AND TURN THE INDEX KNOB FULLY CLOCKWISE BEFORE CLEANING THE SLICER.
Using a mild detergent and hot water solution and a clean cloth, wipe all surfaces of the machine. Rinse using another clean cloth and fresh water.
Remove the top knife cover by rotating the latch knob counterclockwise and lifting up (Fig. 4). Remove the deflector accessory (if equipped) by releasing the spring clips at the knife support. Wash and rinse both sides of the top knife cover and deflector.

Clean the ring guard with a thin cloth soaked in a mild detergent and hot water solution. Insert cloth at the bottom part of the ring guard where it meets the gauge plate (Fig. 5). Place right hand above and left hand below the gauge plate. While holding the cloth with both hands, work it between the knife and ring guard. Pull the cloth completely (360°) around the ring guard (Fig. 6). Repeat this procedure if needed.
CAREFULLY wash and rinse both sides of the knife by wiping outward from the center. Never use steel pads to clean the knife.
