An electric shock may be caused by touching
life connection and electrical mechanical
structures.
● Never touch live parts. They can cause an
electric shock or may result in death.
● Never carry the unit by its power cable.
● Never transport the unit during operation.
● Never operate the unit with wet hands.
● In idle state, turn the adjustment know
clockwise to zero setting so that the stop
plate covers the knife blade.
● Packaging materials must not be used for
playing. There is a danger of suffocation.
● Do not touch the blade of the knife with your
ngers. This is very sharp and may cause
serious injury.
● Make sure that the unit has been switched
off before cleaning or non-use and is not
connected up to the mains.
● Check whether the stop has been closed
(blade covered).
● Do not use any aggressive or scouring
detergent and no solvents.

hard object.
● Do not rinse the unit in water or immerge in
5
water.
● The unit must not be used without the food
holder for remainders unless the size and
shape of the food permits use without.
Unpacking
Proceed as follows to unpack the unit:
● Remove the unit from the box.
● Remove the packaging parts.
● Remove any stickers on the unit (do not
remove the typeplate).
Requirements on the installation location
For safe and faultfree operation of the unit,
the following requirements of the installation
location have to be met:
● The unit has to be placed on a solid, at,
horizontal and non-slipping surface mit a
sufcient weight-carrying capacity.
● Choose the location in such a way that children
cannot reach the sharp blade of the unit.
Safety hazards
The very sharp blade can cut off parts of the
body. Your ngers are especially endangered.
For this reason, do not reach into the space
between the stop plate and the blade as long
as the stop plate is not closed completely, i.e.
set to “0”.
Cutting material
● The unit can be used to cut bread, ham,
sausage, cheese, fruit, vegetables, et cetera.
● By no means cut hard objects, such as frozen
food, bones, wood, sheet metal or similar.
Cutting operation
● Place a tray, a plate or something similar
below the unit.
● Choose the requested slicing thickness.
● Switch the unit on.
● Press the material gently to the stop plate
and the slide to the blade evenly.
Note: Soft food (such as cheese or ham) can
6
be sliced best when cooled. Soft food can be
cut better when pushed slowly. When slicing
cucumbers or carrots, it is advantagous if they
are cut to equal lengths rst which are then
fed using the holder for remainders.
Holder for remainders
The unit must not be used without the food
holder for remainders unless the size and shape
of the food permits use without.
As soon as the size or shape of the food permits
the use of the holder for remainers, this has to
be used.
● Place the remainders or smaller food on the
slide.
● Place the holder for remainders at the rear
wall of the slide and move the holder for
remainders up to the food to be cut.
● Proceed as described above in chapter
“Cutting”.
The holder for remainders permit slicing of
smaller food, such as mushrooms or tomatoes.
Tilting by 30 deg.
The tilting function is especially useful
for cutting bread, hard-cured sausage and
vegetables. By means of the tilting function,
the natural gravity force of the product to be
cut is used for feeding.
Proceed as follows to tilt the unit:
● Press the lock knob. The unit is unlocked.
● Use the swivelling lever to pull the unit up
forcefully until it locks in audibly.
● When the unit has been locked in audibly, it
is secured.
● Now continue as described in the chapter
titled “Cutting operation”.
● After nishing the cutting process, swivel the
unit back.
● Turn the swivelling lever down.
Press the rear part of the prole to lock the
locking bolt.
Cleaning
Use a soft and moist cloth to clean the outer
7
surfaces of the unit. Use a mild detergent in
case of heavy soiling.
Preservation of value - blade
For a long-lasting sharpness and for a
preservation of the value of your Graef blade
we recommend that the blade be cleaned
in regular intervals, especially after cutting
cured meat or ham. They contain salts which
when on the blade surface for a longer period
of time could produce so-called “rust lm”
( on “stainless steel” as well). When cutting
products which contain a lot of water, such as
tomatoes or cucumbers, a lack or wrong (too
“wet”) cleaning may produce rust on the blade
surface.
For this reason we recommend that you use a
moist cloth and a bit of detergent, if and when
necessary, to clean the blade directly after
use. Never put the blade in a dishwasher, rstly
due to decrease in sharpness and corrosion
resistance (salts attack the blade), and
secondly due to safety in handling the blade
whilst loading and unloading the dishwasher.
Removing the blade
Unscrew the blade from time to time and
clean the unit on the inside. Do this, especially
“juicy” cutting material (tomatoes, fruit,
roasts, et cetera) are cut. Handle the blade
with great care.
● Remove the slide.
● Use the black handle grip to turn the blade
cover plate in the direciton of the arrow
upwards until it is vertical over the motor
body. During this action in the initial position,
the snap point has to be overcome rst of all.
● Applying slight pressure, the blade can be
removed.
● Undo the blade by using a coin to turn the
blade screw clockwise.
● Use a moist cloth to clean the inside of the
blade and the black ring.
● Place the blade in reverse order.
Slide
In order to clean the slide better, it can be
8
removed from the unit.
● To remove the carriage, simply fold it to the
side.
● Use a moist cloth or running water to clean
all parts.
Important: Do not clean the slide in a
dishwasher!
● Once a month, add some drops of resin-free
oil or petroleum jelly to the slideway. Use a
soft cottonwool cloth to remove excessive oil
/ petroleum jelly.
● To t it to the machine, hold it vertically over
the table and hook the carriage slide in the
appropriate guide rail on the table.
● Then fold the carriage back onto the table
and into horizontal position.
