4.1 Lubrication

Lubricate all moving parts and slide rails with USDA approved lubricants or pure mineral oil.

Lubrication frequency of your slicer will always depend on the amount of operational usage. We
recommend lubrication on a weekly basis. If you find the carriage tray (#11) or the product grip slide
(#15) is not operating smoothly you may want to lubricate these points more frequently.

To access the bottom of the slicer, turn the slicer onto its left side.
DO NOT lubricate machine with petroleum based, vegetable based or animal fat based products.

4.1.1 Round Rail

Lubricate with PN 151477, Food Grade Superlube, with PTFE.
