IMPORTANT NOTICE
This manual contains Important Safety
Instructions which must be strictly
followed when using this equipment.

BEFORE USING THIS EQUIPMENT

Berkel’s slicers are designed to slice meat and other food products safely and
efficiently. However, unless the operator is properly trained and supervised,
there is the possibility of a serious injury. It is the responsibility of the owner
to ensure that this slicer is used properly and safely, strictly following the
instructions contained in this manual and any requirements of local law.

No one should use or service this slicer without proper training and supervi­sion. All operators should be thoroughly familiar with the procedures con­tained in this manual. Even so, Berkel cannot anticipate every circumstance or
environment in which its slicers will be used. You, the owner and/or operator,
must remain alert to the hazards posed by the function of a slicer—particu­larly the sharp rotating blade and moving table. No one under 18 years of age
should operate this equipment. If you are uncertain about a particular task, ask
your supervisor.

This manual contains a number of safe practices in the General Safety Instruc­tion Section. Additional warnings are placed throughout this manual. WARN-

WARNING

If any warning label, wall chart or manual becomes misplaced, damaged or
illegible, please contact your nearest distributor or Berkel directly, for a free
replacement.

Remember, however, THIS MANUAL OR THE WARNING LABELS DO

NOT REPLACE THE NEED TO BE ALERT AND TO USE YOUR
COMMON SENSE WHEN USING THIS SLICER.
