Unpacking

To unpack the unit, proceed as below:

■ Take the unit out of the carton.

■ Remove all pieces of the packing.

■ Remove any possibly extant labels on the unit

(do not remove the rating plate).

Requirements for the installation loca­tion

For safe and awless operation of the unit, the

place of location must meet these prerequi­sites:

■ The unit must be set up on a rm, at, level

and non-slip base that has sufcient load

bearing capacity.

■ Select the place of location so that children

cannot reach the sharp blade in the unit.

Sources of hazards

The rotating blade can cut off body parts. Your

ngers, especially the thumbs, are endangered.

For this reason, never reach into the space be­tween the stop plate and the holder for the
material to be sliced as long as the stop plate
is not completely closed, i.e., is placed below
“0”.

Cutting

■ Swivel the machine feet out as far as they go.

■ Push the slider on the underside of the carria-

ge together and turn the carriage over.

■ Put the thumb protection into a horizontal

position

■ Place the cutting goods on the carriage.

■ Adjust the desired cutting width by turning

the hand wheel.

■ Push the needed switch „Pulse“ or „Perma-

nent“

■ Press the cutting goods gently against the

stopper plate and lead the carraige evenly
against the blade.

■ After nishing the cutting process, turn off

the appliance.

■ Push the button on the side of the thumb

protection and ip it.

■ Push the slider on the underside of the carria-

ge together and ip it.

Important
Let the engine cool off after a permanent

usage of approx. 5 minutes.
Tips
Soft cutting goods (for example cheese or

ham) can be cut best when cooled.
Soft cutting goods are cut better when you

move it forward slower.
When cutting cucumbers or carrots it helps to

cut them to an identical size beforehand, and
then lead them to the cutter using the scrap
holder.

Food holder

When the items to be sliced are shorter and 10
cm so it is no longer possible to correctly hold

onto them, the food holder must be used.

■ Place the food rests or the small items for slic-

ing on the carriage.

■ Set the food holder on the rear of the car-

riage and put the food holder onto the items
to be sliced.

■ Proceed as above as described in “Slicing”.

Important
The food holder lets you slice small items such

as mushrooms and tomatoes.
The unit must not be used without the food

holder unless the size and shape of the items
to be sliced do not permit its use.

Cleaning

Clean the exterior of the unit with a soft, moist
damp cloth. If heavy soiled, a mild detergent
can be used.

Blade removal

Please occasionally unscrew the blade and
clean the interior of the unit. Especially, when
“juicy” slicing items (tomatoes, fruit, roasts,
etc.) were sliced. Handle the blade with great
care!

■ Pull the carriage all the way towards you.

■ Remove the blade cover plate.

■ Loosen the blade by turning the blade screw

clockwise.

■ Clean the insides of the blade with a damp

cloth.
