1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose of the manual
This publication contains all the information necessary for the installation, use and maintenance of the
manual flywheel slicing machines to be used for food, with circular blade.
The purpose of this manual is to allow the user, above all the direct user, to take every precaution and
arrange all human and material means necessary for a safe and lengthy use of these machines.
The slicing machines are subject to continuous improvements, which do not restrain the current instructions
in this handbook.
This manual must be given to the person who will use and maintain the machines and this person will keep
the manual in a safe and dry place, ready to be used. We recommend that a copy is being kept on file.
The manual must be kept for the entire life of the machine and in case of need (ex. any damage to even a
part of the manual that makes consulting it difficult) the user must acquire a new copy exclusively from the
manufacturer. The user must let the manufacturer know the address of any new owner of the machine.
For any correspondence with the manufacturer or authorized personnel, please refer to the information on
the plate and the machine serial number.
1.2 General description of the machine
The slicing machine has been designed and made to offer maximum safety when in use, during cleaning and
ordinary maintenance; maximum hygiene from the use of inoxidisable materials or adequately protected
against oxidation together with an attentive design of all the parts that come into contact with food;
maximum cutting precision and capacity together with sturdiness and reliability of the structure.
The machine is essentially made up of a base that holds a circular blade that is vertically mounted and a
sliding carriage on bars, parallel to the cutting edge of the blade, which in turn holds a food plate.
The food plate is made up of a base plate and an overplate which slides at right angles to the edge of the
blade for slicing the food; the overplate also has an appropriate self-stopping device, which can be
regulated in height, to keep the product in its proper place during cutting operations (food press).
Carriage movement and blade rotation are completely manual; by activating rotation of the flywheel with
the special handle, the carriage is put into motion and the blade is turns at the same time with a chain
transmission.
The product is cut during the forward movement of the carriage, parallel to the blade; the thickness of the
slice is regulated by a mechanical device which is automatically started every time the carriage comes back,
making the sliding overplate transversally towards the blade, with a value which is pre-determined by the
graduated handwheel.
All the components of the machine are made of a light aluminium alloy, in stainless steel and plastic for food
products as according to the sanitary regulations in force.
The machine has a sharpener which is extremely easy and safe to use. The food plate, sharpener and blade
cover can be removed for cleaning.

sausage products, warm and cold (temperature not less than +3°C) meat without bones, cheese and bread.
The cutting thickness ranges from 0 to 2 mm for Prosciutto300.
The machine may only be used in original condition respectively with genuine parts. The removal of
protective devices is not allowed, moreover, plates may not be removed, covered or changed. In case of
damage, the machine needs to be put out of operation and ADE needs to be informed in order to replace
parts.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility derived from an improper use or use by personnel who has not
read and fully understood the contents of this manual; changes and/or repairs carried out on one’s own; the
use of spare parts that are not original or not specific for the type of machine.
The slicing machines may not be used for slicing frozen or deep-frozen products, meat or
sausage products with bones or pip fruit and vegetables. Cutting samples cannot be
recommended as well.
