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 INFORMATION

LIMITS OF USE – SAFETY NORMS

These machine were designed and built to slice foodstuff in compliance to the
norms of the 89/392 - 89/336 Directive and following amendments CE 91/368 ­93/44 - 93/68 CE, EN 1974 directive 89/109.

GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS

The slicers must be used only by suitably trained personnel. Furthermore, this personnel
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 no 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 qualified personnel.

 In case of anomalies, 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 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, except for the F 195 model for which

operating time must not exceed 15 minutes to avoid motor overheating. After a period
of rest, operation can be resumed.

WARRANTY: 1 YEAR except for the electrical parts

PACKING

OPENING THE BOX

On reception 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 on that manual;

 Lift the machine still wrapped in a transparent polyethylene sheet and extract it from

the box;

 Now check the box content and make sure it corresponds to what shown on the

external label.

WARNING:

The packaging components (cardboard, polyethylene, and others)
are classified as normal solid urban waste and can therefore be

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 foodstuffs. 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 anodically oxidized aluminium
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 aluminium 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 available on the F 195, S 220 and F 250ES machines).

WARNING: RESIDUAL RISKS

Notwithstanding 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.
