GENERAL

The Hobart Model 2812PS Slicer with Portion Scale displays the weight or slice count as the sliced product falls to the platter. Four preset values (P1 thru P4) can be programmed with weight or slice count and are readily accessed for portioning. A memory register (M) allows any current weight or key entered weight or slice count to be used for portioning. The scale display can Tare to indicate Net weight but is NOT LEGAL FOR TRADE. The model 2812PS slicer is equipped with a 1/2 HP motor and is available for single-phase electrical service. The slicer features the exclusive Hobart Stay-Sharp contoured cast solid stainless steel knife. The slicer is furnished with a cord and plug as standard equipment.
