DO NOT turn the flywheel (7)
anticlockwise.
Serious damage to the slicer
could be caused.
You will need to turn the flywheel (7)
4/5 times before the product touches
the blade (16).
Whilst the carriage (5) moves forward
(away from the operator), the blade (16)
enters the product.
Guided by the deflector (2), the slice is
detached and drops onto the slice
receiving surface (1).
As the carriage (5) returns (towards the
operator), a mechanical device is
operated that moves the product holder
(4) sideways towards the blade (16).
The amount of sideways movement is
set by using the slice thickness control
knob (13).
You should stop turning the flywheel
(7) once the operation is complete; the
blade will halt its movement (16).
Move the product holder (4) (with the
remaining product) away from the
blade (16) using either the handwheel
(12) or the fast forward lever (11).
