Installation, Operation, and Care of

MODEL 5212 & 5212F MEAT SAWS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL

The 5212 Meat Saw is rugged, durable, and easy to clean. The carriage (Fig.1) has stainless steel ball bearings providing easy travel and dependability. The shaped front edge of the carriage is comfortable to the operator's body even when leaned on during movement. The carriage lock is standard. Instead of the rolling carriage, model 5212F has a stationary cutting table often used for poultry cutting.

Table, carriage, pulleys, guides, and wiper assemblies can be quickly removed without tools for ease of cleaning. Moving parts are enclosed but accessible. The blade is guarded above and below the cutting zone. The pusher plate is provided to eliminate the need of handling items close to the blade; it can ride on the right "flanged-end" of the carriage so you keep your hands away from the cutting edge of the blade.

The 5212 and 5212F Meat Saws have a 2 HP motor controlled by a push-pull switch knob located on the front of the saw (Fig. 1). For electrical specifications above 250 volts, a transformer provides a 115 volt control circuit voltage (optional on lower voltages). Thermal overload protection is an option.

One long-life blade is furnished with each saw as standard equipment. This blade cannot be resharpened; replacement blades are available through your local Hobart Service Office.
