INSPECTION

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

All Univex slicers are inspected and tested at the factoiy; however, they should be reinspected carefully

by the person makingthe installation for loose, damaged or broken parts. Detached parts and fixtures should be checked against packing list to determine all are present. Any damages should be reported to

the canier immediately, and any shortage ofparts or fixtures reported to Univex Corporation.

Warning: After slicer has been inspected, wash slicer completely with warm water and mild soap. For

SAFETY, follow the cleaning instructions on Pages 5 & 6.

INSTALLATION

The most eflicient 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 ofthe 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

ofthe slicer is at approximately the height of the operator's elbow when standing.

[p1)

IMPORTANT

Warning/Caution: Electrical wiring instructions are found inthe wiring diagram (Figures 9 & IO.)

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 ofthe 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 ofthe knife. Never run slicer without the guard or other parts in place and securely fastened. Take extra careto avoid accidents by keeping the knife guard and sharpening

assembly cover ON at all times. When the machine is not in use, the slice adjustment knob should be turned fully back to the closed position (beyond 'O') so that the knife edge is not

L WARNING: Keep away from the knife edge.

Complotely 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. 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 on Page 6, Remember to unplug the

electrical supply cord.

Loosen sharpener lock pin (Figure 7 [261) whith bears against sharpener post, then lift

sharpener assembly (Figure 1 [41) and rotate it 1/2 turn (1800). Then seat it down over

Tighten sharpener lock pin (Figure 7 [26]). As the lock pin is tightened, it bears on the

sharpener post and automatically aligus the grinding and deburring stones to the precise orientations whith are presst at our factory.

Turn slicer ON. Depress the sharpener button on the back side of blade and hold in, whith will stasi the grinding wheel rotating. Run until the beveled cutting surface cleans up. This can take from 30 seconds to several minutes depending on how dull the blade

was allowed to become.

Release sharpener button.

Turn slicer OFF and deck for the formation of a very slight burr on the side of knife

opposite the bevel whith indicates coniple grinding ofthe bevel. This slight burr can be

dctected either visually or by picking with a small piece of stiff paper.

Turn slicer ON. Lightly press deburring (honing) button on the front side of blade and

hold for Ito 2 seconds while you turn OFF the slicer. Blade should now be complotely

sharpened and honed,

Caution: It is impoitant for best slicing results not to deburr the knife too long or the keen

edge will be destroyed dueto the formation of an undesirable second bevel on the

opposite sìde This condition tends to be the primary cause of unsatisfactory

slicing results.

Turn slicer OFF. Loosen lock pin, (Figure 7 [26 J) then lift and rdum sharpener to its

storage position. Tighten lock pin.

Clean slicer and knife according to the cleaning procedure on Page 5 -6 in order to
