FOREWORD
SCOPE OF THIS MANUAL
This manual contains all the necessary information to install, use and service the gravity slicers for food (please see models in paragraph “Technical Description”). The scope of this document, hereinafter the “manual”, is to permit users, and especially end users, to take all the cautions and provisions possible for using this machine safely and for a long time.
GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS
The slicers must only be used by, suitably trained personnel. Furthermore, they must have read this manual carefully.
In particular, please comply to the following instructions
•Install the machine according to the instructions contained in the “Installation” section.
•Do not remove the transparent protections, do not modify nor exclude the mechanical and electrical safety devices.
•Do not use the machine with improvised connections, or provisional or non - insulated cables.
•Check the power cable and gland plate on the machine body regularly, and when necessary have them replaced by a qualified personnel.
•In case of abnormalities, defective operation, incorrect movement, unusual noise, etc stop the machine immediately.
•Before cleaning or servicing, disconnect the machine from the mains.
•Always use scratch proof and non-slip gloves during cleaning or maintenance.
•Lay or remove the goods to be sliced on the sliding plate only when the latter is completely pushed back and the thickness control knob is positioned to 0.
•To move the carriage tray when slicing, use the handle or the product grip handle.
•For extraordinary maintenance (to replace the sharpener wheels, the blade, or others) please contact the manufacturer or qualified and duly authorized personnel.
•Avoid running the slicers with no product on it
•The slicers are equipped with a ventilated motor
•WARRANTY: 1 YEAR except for the electrical parts

PACKING
OPENING THE BOX
On receipt, check packaging integrity, otherwise inform the forwarding agent or the area agent immediately.
To unpack the machine, proceed as follows:
•Open the box and remove your copy of the manual of use and maintenance, then proceed according to the instructions found in that manual;
•Lift the machine still wrapped in a transparent polyethylene sheet and extract it from the box
•Now check the box contents and make sure it corresponds to what is shown on the external label.
WARNING:
The packaging components (cardboard, polyethylene, and others) are classified as normal solid urban waste and can therefore be disposed of without difficulty. In any case, for suitable recycling, we suggest disposing of the products separately (differentiated waste) according to the current norms.
DO NOT DISCARD ANY PACKAGING MATERIALS IN THE ENVIRONMENT!

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION AND PROPOSED CONDITIONS OF USE GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The machine is essentially made of a base supporting a circular blade mounted in tilted position. This blade is driven by an electrical motor to slice food. The machine is equipped with a carriage holding a product tray and sliding on tracks mounted under the base top, parallel to the blade.
Slice thickness is adjusted by means of a gauge plate mounted in front of the blade. This plate, against which rests the product to be sliced is moved transversally with respect to the blade by a value corresponding to the desired slice thickness. The product is fed to the machine (towards the gauge plate) by gravity.
All the machine components are made of polished and anodized oxidized aluminum alloy, of stainless steel and food grade plastic material.
The blade is driven by an electrical motor, transmission is by means of a longitudinally grooved belt.
The machine is started and stopped by a control button provided with auxiliary circuit preventing accidental restarts after an outage.
Some of the machine models have a user-friendly and safe built-in blade sharpener.
MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL SAFETY DEVICES
The following mechanical safety devices were installed:
•A series of aluminum and transparent plastic guards on the product carriage.
The following electrical safety devices were installed:
•Start/stop button system requiring a voluntary restart of the machine in the case of an outage or interruption of the power supply.
•Safety micro-switch preventing the motor from starting when the blade guard is removed
(not on the CE VERSION).
PRODUCTS THAT CAN BE SLICED
•All types of cold cuts (raw, cooked, smoked);
•Meat without bone (raw or cooked, at a temperature not less than + 3 °C;
•Cheese cuts (obviously types that can be sliced such as gruyere, fontina, etc.).
PRODUCTS THAT MUST NOT BE SLICED:
•Frozen or deep-frozen food
•Food containing bones (meat or fish)
•Any other non-food product
WARNING: RESIDUAL RISKS
Not with standing all the possible cautions taken during the design and the construction of the machine, residual risks (cutting) still exist during use or during cleaning or maintenance. Therefore be careful and PAY THE UTMOST ATTENTION to what you are doing.
DO NOT use the machine if you are not in perfect psychological and physical conditions. DO NOT ALLOW anyone near the machine when it is in use. ALWAYS wear gloves that can resist cuts or tears when cleaning, lubricating or sharpening the blade.
Slice only the products mentioned as sliceable. NEVER try to slice products that have been mentioned as non sliceable.

MACHINE COMMISSIONING AND FUNCTION TESTS
INSTALLING THE MACHINE
Position the machine on a well leveled, smooth and dry top suitably dimensioned to withstand the machine weight.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Install the machine near a compliant outlet derived from a system meeting the current norms.
The user is responsible for ascertaining that the electrical system is suitably dimensioned and functions correctly (supply line, outlet, distribution panel, differential protecting breaker, grounding).
Before carrying out the connection ascertain that the mains characteristics correspond to those indicated on the machine plate.
COMMANDS
START AND STOP BUTTONS
•Press the green button (1) to start running the blade.
•The light turns on to indicate that the machine works correctly.
•Press the red button to stop the blade (2).
Slice thickness can be adjusted by turning the graduated knob (3) anti clockwise. Thickness adjustment range: see paragraph "Technical description and conditions of use”.
FUNCTIONING TEST AND BLADE ROTATION DIRECTION
Start the machine and check whether the light is on; make sure that the blade rotates in the direction indicated by the arrow (anti clockwise if you look at the machine from the blade plate side).
•Ascertain that the carriage and the pusher slide correctly;
•Ascertain that the gauge plate works and adjust thickness to desired value.
