PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTION CAREFULLY

1.1 - GENERAL USE, MAINTENANCE AND SAFETY INSTRUCTION

• The slicer must be operated only by highly qualified people who are fully aware of the safety
measures described in this manual. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that the slicer
is properly and safely used.

• Although the slicer is equipped with safety devices in the dangerous points, KEEP HANDS

CLEAR OF THE BLADE AND ALL MOVING PARTS.

• Before starting cleaning and maintenance, ALWAYS UNPLUG THE SLICER.

• Be particularly alert when protection devices are removed to carry out cleaning and
maintenance.

• Cleaning and maintenance requires great concentration.

• A regular check of the power supply cords is absolutely necessary; a worn-out or damaged
cord can expose users to electric shock hazard.

• If the slicer doesn't work properly, don't use it and don't attempt to service it yourself.

• Do not use the slicer to cut frozen products, meat and fish with bones or any other product other
than food.

• Use the slicer only with the help of the pusher.

• Do not place yourself in a dangerous position; the blade may cause serious injuries.

• Do not expose slicer to water or moisture. Do not keep it in places where electrical parts may
enter in contact with water.

• Retain this instruction manual for future reference.

• The manufacturer is not liable for slicer malfunction in the following cases:

If the slicer has been tampered with by non-authorized personnel
If some parts have been substituted with non original spare parts
If the instructions contained in this manual are not followed accurately
If the slicer is not cleaned and oiled with the right products

1.2 - SAFETY SYSTEMS INSTALLED IN THE SLICER

1.2.1 Mechanical Safety System

The mechanical safety system of the slicer described in this manual includes:

• blade guard

• cover

• meat pusher

• hand cover on product table

• product table + finger protection

1.2.2 Electrical safety Systems

The safety system installed to protect users against electrical risks includes a micro-switch which stops
the slicer in case the tie rod for blade guard is removed (see Fig. No.1);
The micro-switch prevents restarting the slicer if the guard has not been set to the off position.

The blade and other parts of the machine can cause serious cuts and injuries. Do not touch

1.3 SPECIFICATIONS OF THE SLICER

1.3.1 General Description

The slicers have been designed to cut food products, such as sausages and meat, in order to
guarantee:

• The highest degree of safety in functioning, cleaning and maintenance;

• The highest hygienic standards due to an accurate choice of materials and a smooth design of
the slicer components which come into contact with products so as to obtain easy and total
cleaning and easy disassembly;

• The greatest accuracy in cutting food products thanks to a cam mechanism;

• Solidity and stability of components;

• The highest degree of noiselessness due to belt drive;

• Great handiness;

1.3.2 Construction Features

Our slicers are made of an anodized aluminum alloy (Peraluman Mg5) treated by anodic oxidation.
This procedure guarantees high hygienic standards of the parts interested by the cut and resistance to
acids, salts and oxidation processes.

The blade is made of chromium plated steel 100Cr6; it is grinded and hardened to guarantee an
accurate and sharp cut of products. The other components of the slicer are made of ABS, LEXAN,
PLEXIGLAS and stainless steel AISI 430 or 304.
