HINTS AND TIPS FOR USING YOUR SLICER
1. Roasts: Beef, Pork, Poultry, and Lamb
When slicing warm boneless roasts, remove from oven and let set 15-20 minutes before slicing. The meat will retain more natural juices and slice evenly without crumbling.
2. Bulk Bacon:
Chill thoroughly before slicing. Some types of bacon should have the rind removed; chill well and remove with a sharp knife. You can use the rind as a "flavor dividend" for seasoning beans or soups. Trim bacon to fit securely on the food tray, fatty side down. Slice to desired thickness – about 1/8" cooks nicely.
3. Cheese and Cold Cuts:
Slice as needed to retain flavor. Remove the plastic or hard casing from the well-chilled food before slicing. Use constant, gentle pressure for uniform slices.
4. Very Thin Cheese:
Use caution when you are slicing very thin food. It is best to unplug the unit and moisten the Blade with a damp cloth. This will help prevent the food from sticking to the Blade. If cheese builds up on the Blade or under the Blade Nut, unplug Slicer, and wipe blade clean with a damp cloth.
5. Very Thin Corned Beef or Fresh Beef Brisket:
Chill cooked brisket overnight in cooking liquid. Before slicing, drain brisket from liquid and pat dry with paper towels. Remove excess fat.
6. Large Foods:
When slicing food that is not uniform in size, always slice with the largest side first.
7. Vegetables:
It is very easy to slice potatoes, tomatoes, zucchini, carrots, cucumbers, cabbage (for slaw), eggplant, and squash in minutes. Just set thickness setting and slice. Potatoes may be sliced thick or thin for chips.

9.
To use the Cutting Board, remove from storage slot on the bottom left
side of the unit.
NOTE: Use Caution when slicing, always slice food with the Feeder and Press Plate.
CAUTION: To avoid overloading the Slicer or damaging the Blade, do not use the Slicer to cut frozen foods or bones. We also do not recommend slicing jelly-like or wet foods. The excessive juice may spread into the electrical components of the motor assembly. Allow juicy meats to chill and then slice.

6. After cleaning, install the Blade and Blade-Locking Nut on main unit in reverse order of Step 3. Make sure the Blade-Locking Knob is properly engaged. Remember to turn the Thickness Adjustment Knob to setting ‘O’.
CAUTION: Do not disassemble Slicer, other than stated in the above cleaning instructions.
HOW TO CLEAN YOUR SLICER (CONTINUED
)
CAUTION: Blade is sharp. Handle carefully. Do not wash blade in dishwasher. Do not immerse main unit in water. Do not remove lubricant from the gears.
1.
Always unplug the appliance and let the Blade come to a complete stop before cleaning.
2.
Adjust the Thickness Knob to setting ‘O’ before cleaning.
3.
To clean the Blade, hold the Blade by one hand and use a coin to unlock the Blade-Locking Nut by turning it clock-wise (Fig 5). Remove the Blade by gripping the hole portion of the Blade.
4.
The Blade, Food Press Plate, Feeder, and Food Tray should be hand washed and dried immediately. Use caution when cleaning the Blade, it is extremely sharp. Do not touch the sharp edge.
The Blade should not be left to soak in water. Wash, rinse, and dry Blade immediately. Install Blade in main unit after it has dried.
NOTE: The white lubricant on the gears of the Blade and Motor assembly is used to reduce the friction and noise of the gears. It should not be removed. If removed, the life of the gears and cutting performance will be limited and the noise will increase. In case of total removal of lubricant, food grade lubricant may be applied. Never apply industrial-use or automobile use lubricant to the gears.
5.
Clean the outer surface of the main unit with a damp cloth. It is recommended to clean the main unit with the Blade removed. Never immerse the main unit in water.
