MAINTENANCE

Do not attempt to sharpen the knife blades. Under normal use and care they will provide years of satisfactory use.

The motor of your electric slicing knife has been carefully lubricated at the factory using selected lubricants. It does not require any additional oil for the life of the unit.

Other than the recommended cleaning, no further user maintenance is necessary. Return the electric slicing knife to your nearest authorized service center for servicing or repairs.

TIPS FOR CARVING WITH THE ELECTRIC CARVING KNIFE

Use a carving board to avoid scratching china, metal platters or countertops.

Allow a roast to stand 15 to 20 minutes after roasting. Keep in a warm place. The meat will be easier to carve. Use a fork to hold meat when carving.

Remove all skewers from the meat before carving.

CARVING A STANDING RIB ROAST OF BEEF

Suggestions: Have your butcher remove the backbone of the roast and cut the rib bones short.

Arrange the roast on a cutting board with the largest end of the roast down and the rib side to your left. The small end of the roast is nearest the carver. Insert a carving fork between the two top ribs.

Slice across the roast from the fat edge of the rib bone. Free the slice from the bone using the special “trimming tip” of the knife.

CLEANING YOUR ELECTRIC CARVING KNIFE

Unplug cord from the electrical outlet.

Press the blade release button and gently remove both blades from the knife using the drip guards. Slide the blades apart so the rivet on one blade is disengaged from the key-hole slot on the other blade.

Hold blades by the drip guards and wash in warm, sudsy water. Rinse blades

and dry thoroughly. Be careful – blades are SHARP. The blades are dishwasher safe.

Wipe unit with a damp cloth. DO NOT IMMERSE THE UNIT IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS.

STORAGE

Coil the electrical cord of the knife with a twist fastener. Store the knife in the storage case in a clean, dry location such as a cabinet or cupboard shelf. Slide plastic cover over blades and store blades in a drawer.

CARVING A WHOLE HAM OR ROAST LEG OF LAMB

Place the leg of lamb or whole ham on the carving board with the shank end to the right of the carver. For a ham, turn the scored, fat-side up. For the leg of lamb, place the roast so that the meaty section faces away from the carver.

Insert a meat fork into the heavy part of the meat and cut several lengthwise slices from the less meaty side.
