Vegetable Preparation Machine

Please follow the instructions below to correctly operate the VPM:

 Select the correct feed hope (large half-moon or small circular)
 insert chosen vegetable
 Use the feed arm or feed stick to apply gentle, constant pressure on the required food
 The VPM works rapidly therefore once a vegetable has placed in the hopper it is imperative

to maintain constant pressure to achieve uniform cuts/slices. This is particularly important
when using the chipper

 When using smaller vegetables a more uniform slice is achieved utilizing the small hopper

Warning: Under NO circumstances attempt to push vegetables into the machine by hand, as it could
lead to an injury.

Maintenance

Band Saw

Replacing the Saw Blade

When replacing the saw blade follow these instructions to ensure that it is completed correctly:

 Loosen the setting b rotating it anticlockwise
 When installing a new saw blade pay attention to its direction as the blade could break off

from the machine

 Make sure the blade and the slicer are positioned between the top wheel, bottom wheel

and middle plate. Furthermore ensure that the blade passes through the guide groove.

 Once changed tighten the setting to ensure the blade is sufficiently positioned and adjust

the tension on the saw belt to ensure the machine is in its optimal state.

 Unscrew the lock screw to take out the grinding tank.
 Use hot water and detergent to clean both of these parts.

After cleaning, assemble them in order. Be careful not to screw the nut too tight or too loose which
may damage the machine or affect the meat grinding process.

To clean the outside and front stainless steel parts of the unit simply use a damp cloth to wipe all

grease and food from the unit. Regularly cleaning the unit will help prolong its life.

Caution: When cleaning the mincer, ensure that no water is allowed near the motor.

Lubrication:

Ensuring the slicer is well lubricated can prolong its life. Following this lubrication guide will ensure

your product remains in good working order:

Guide Lubrication:

Push the carriage to one side, and clean any grease or dirt on the blade guide with a dry cloth

 Smear the guide surface with grease by hand, spreading evenly to lubricate effectively
 It is necessary to lubricate the guide every week.

Pusher axle lubrication:

To lubricate the pusher axle, firstly clean the pusher axle with a dry cloth

 Then put cooking oil on both of the axles and pull the pusher up and down to make the oil

spread well

 It is necessary to lubricate the axle every day.

Sharpener lubrication:

 To lubricate the sharpener, foremost ensure the sharpener axle is clean.
 Put cooking oil on both axles
 Turn around and slide the axle until the axles work well.

Localising Head lubrication:

Turn the fixing position anti-clockwise to the maximum length

 Clean the localising head, then put cooking oil on it
 Turn the fixing position back to the original position

It is necessary to lubricate it every week but ensure to spread the oil evenly and not to apply too
much.

Blade Sharpening:

Follow the guide below when the slice thickness becomes uneven or the slices break into pieces:

Always turn off and unplug the machine before cleaning, and make sure to turn the slice thickness

regulator to the zero position.

 Clean the edge of blade before sharpening.
 Pull the sharpener out and lubricate the sharpener axles until they work well.
 Pull the sharpener out and turn 180º.
 Make sure the surface of stone is resting closely to the surface of the blade edge. If that is

not the case adjust it.

 Turn the power on and press both sides of the stone down using the finger buttons making

contact with the blade for approximately 10 to 15 seconds.

 Stop the machine and look to see if the blade has sharpened well, if not, continue.
 Return the sharpener back to the original position after work.

Note: Always keep the stones clean so they work well. Avoid looking directly at the stone during
rotation to avoid injury from a piece of the stone. Ideally use safety glasses.
