Safety and Convenience Features

Berkel Model 909AS combi gravity feed slicer features a built­in digital scale that lets you slice/weigh to order . available in
pound, ounce or gram versions. The side-mounted weight
system uses an easy-to-read, tower, vacuum flor escent
display. Model 909AS includes Berkel’s time proven hollow
ground stainless steel knife, built-in, single lever , dual-action
sharpener and many safety features. The permanent, tapered
guard covers the non-slicing portion of the knife even when
the sharpener and center plate are removed. The gauge plate
interlock prevents the product table from being removed
unless it is in the full forward or home position and the gauge
plate is closed. Removing the product table locks the gauge
plate in the closed position. The center plate interlock prevents
the slicer from operating if the center plate is removed. A built­in timer automatically shuts off the unit after 15 seconds of
non-use. Units are easy to clean and disassemble quickly
without tools.
