Electric Food Slicer
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR SLICER
Before operating your slicer for the first time, disassemble and
clean, (see page 5).
1. Be sure slicer is unplugged. Place assembled slicer on a
flat, dry surface. Position slicer in front of you so that
the Thickness Knob is on your left and the Pusher is on
your right.
2. Check that the slicer is turned Off. Do not plug it in yet.
3. Be sure the blade is tightly in place. (See Removing the
Cutting Blade on page 5). The Platform should glide
smoothly on its track. When using the slicer for the first
time, the Platform may need a few drops of vegetable
oil.
4. Remove the Pusher. Cut food to proper size before
placing on the Platform. Place food on Platform.
Position the Pusher on the back edge of the Platform.
Place your hand so your fingers align with the grooves
inside the pusher. Do not allow any food to hang over
the Platform.
Note: Meats and cheeses slice better when chilled.
5. Position the Thickness Knob for desired slice thickness.
Turn the knob counter clockwise for thicker slices,
clockwise for thinner slices.
BEGIN SLICING
1. Plug the cord into a 120 Volt AC outlet.
2. Press On/Off Switch to start the slicer.
3. Allow slicer to run for thirty seconds to warm up.
4. Grasp the Pusher with right hand, keeping your thumb
protected behind the Pusher. Apply even pressure for
best slicing results.
5. Move the Pusher towards the Blade. Move back and
forth steadily and easily with even pressure. Repeat for
additional slices.
6. When finished slicing, press the On/Off Switch to
stop the Blade from turning. Unplug from outlet.
7. The slicer can operate continuously for 10 minutes,
after which it should be turned off and allowed to cool.
8. Always align the thickness guide with the cutting blade
after use.
CAUTION!!!
Blade is very sharp and can cause severe lacerations!
