INSTRUCTION MANUAL

INTRODUCTION

This manual contains instructions for the Installation, Operation, Care, Maintenance and Repair of the Meat Slicing Machine. Disassembly, Repair, Replacement and Reassembly Instructions are included. A trouble shooting guide is provided. A complete Replacement Parts List with identifying figures is also included to facilitate identification and ordering

of replacement parts.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

INSPECTION

All Univex slicers are inspected and tested at the factory; however, they should be

reinspected carefully by the person making the installation for loose, damaged

or broken

parts. Detached parts and fixtures should be checked against packing list to determine all

are present. Any damages, imperfections or shortages should be reported to the dealer or

Univex and shipping carrier.

Warning: After slicer has been inspected, wash slicer completely with warm water and

mild soap. For SAFETY, follow the cleaning instructions on Page 6.

INSTALLATION The most efficient installation of your Univex slicer will depend upon the layout of your

kitchen. Locate your slicer where it will save steps for the operator and be sure to provide sufficient clearance around it for ease of maintenance and cleaning, as well as for efficient

and safe use.

Slicer should be operated on a sturdy bench or table with the height determined to suit the

operator.

It is most important that the forearm of the operator be at the proper level for

ease and safety of operation, as well as for maximum production. This height is considered

optimum when the carriage handle (Figure 1 [8]) of the slicer is at approximately the height

of the operator's elbow when standing.

IMPORTANT

Warning/CautIon: Electrical wiring instructions are found in the wiring diagram (Figure

7) Before making electrical connections, CHECK the specifications on

the nameplate to make sure that they agree with those on your electrical service. A grounding type three-terminal plug is provided for

safety. If you do not have a mating receptacle, have a qualified

electrician provide one with grounding provisions in accordance with

local safety codes.

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS

It is a violation of United States Department of Labor regulations to permit operation of the

slicer by any person under the age of 18 years.

Warning: The slicer knife is extremely sharp! Never touch the knife, always keep hands

and fingers clear of the knife. Never run slicer without the guard and all other

parts in place and securely fastened. Take extra care to avoid accidents by

keeping the knife guard and sharpening assembly cover ON at all times. When

4509/45 10/45 12

the machine is not in use, the slice adjustment knob should be turned fully back

to the closed position (beyond "0") so that the knife edge is not exposed.

Observe the cleaning instruction on Page 6 for best results and for safety. Also

remember to always turn off the slicer and disconnect the electrical supply cord

before cleaning.

When slicing, always work the carriage using only the carriage arm handle

(Figure 1 [8]). Do not hold or push the carriage from any other place.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

The Univex slicer is designed to meet the cook's demand for an efficient, sturdy slicer. The

Univex slicer will give unfailing performance over a period of years, when operated and maintained according to instructions contained herein.

START/STOP SWITCH

The slicer is started by toggling the ON/OFF switch (Figure 1 [10]) to the ON position.

SLICE ADJUSTMENT Warning: Dial-type knob adjustment (Figure 1 [9]) allows for slice thicknesses ranging

from paper thin up to 1/2". Dial graduations allow you to precisely set up

specific slice thicknesses for various needs. When not in use, always return

knob back to its fully closed position (beyond "0") so that the knife edge is not

exposed.

POSITIVE HOLD CARRIAGE

Caution: A last slice gravity feed grip (Figure 1 [5]) is provided. Do not use this last slice

device to work the carriage back and forth. Use only the carriage arm handle

(Figure 1 [8]).

Always make sure the carriage is positively secured to the slicer by checking to

see that the carriage arm knob (Figure 1 [7]) is fully tightened. Failure to do

this could result in the carriage striking and damaging the knife edge.

PROTECTIVE GUARD Warning: The protective guard (Figure 1 [4]) covers the knife edge completely except

under the sharpener cover and the forward edge where slicing will be performed. This forward edge is covered by the edge of the fence, but only when the slice

adjustment is completely closed.

The knife guard (Figure 1 [3]) can be removed for cleaning by unscrewing the

knife guard knob (Figure 3 [11]). For safety, keep the knife guard on at all

times except when cleaning. Never operate the slicer with the knife guard

removed.

SHARPENING INSTRUCTIONS

4509/4510,4512

This slicer is equipped with a kmfe having a concave

or hollowed surface for superior

slicing quality. Of course, any knife, however superior, must be sharpened regularly and

properly in order to produce not only the highest quality slices, but also to allow it to

maintain its productivity. The knife sharpener (Figure 1 [2])

on this machine is a top

mounted built-in mechanism, designed for simplicity and ease of use.

Warning: The following sharpening procedure will provide high quality sharpening results

and should also be followed for safety considerations:

WarnIng: Keep away from the knife edge.

Completely close the slice adjustment (beyond '0") so that the knife edge is

not exposed.

The knife cutting area should be clean and free from food, especially

Grease will ruin the ability of a grinding stone to sharpen an edge. The stone

simply will not cut. If cleaning is necessary, follow the procedure outlined

Page 6.

grease.

Loosen sharpener knob assembly (Figure 8 [4]) which bears against sharpener

post, then lift sharpener assembly (Figure 1 [2]) and rotate it 1/2 turn (180°).

Then force it down over the knife.

Tighten sharpener knob assembly (Figure 8 [4]). As the knob assembly is

tightened, it bears on the sharpener post and automatically aligns the grinding and deburring stones to the precise orientations which are preset at

factory.

Turn slicer

This will start the grinding process. Run until the beveled

our

cutting surface (back side of blade) cleans up. This can take from 30 seconds

to several minutes depending on how dull the blade was allowed to become. Turn slicer OFF.

Check for the formation of a very slight burr on the side of knife opposite the

bevel (front side of blade) which indicates complete grinding of the bevel.

This slight burr can be detected either visually or by picking with a small

piece of stiff paper.

Turn slicer ON. Lightly press deburring (honing) button (Figure 8 [15]) of

the sharpener assembly and hold for 1 to 2 seconds while you turn OFF the slicer. Blade should now be completely sharpened and honed.

Caution: It is important for best slicing results not to deburr the knife too

long or the keen edge will be destroyed due to the formation of an undesirable second bevel on the opposite side. This condition tends to be the primary cause of unsatisfactory slicing

results.

Turn slicer OFF. Loosen knob assembly, (Figure 8 [4]) then lift and return

sharpener to its storage position. Tighten knob assembly.

Clean slicer and knife according to the cleaning procedure on Page 6 in order

to thoroughly remove grinding debris.
