BLADES ASSEMBLY
The Breville Slice ‘n’ Carve™
Cordless electric knife comes
with 2 stainless steel blade
set options. Each set is made
up of two interlocked blades
to create a cutting action. The
smaller serrated blade set is
perfect for smaller food tasks
such as tomatoes and sushi,
while the larger blade set suits
larger tasks such as bread
loaves and roasts.
CAUTION
The blades of your
rechargeable electric knife are
sharp! Handle with extreme
care. We recommend holding
the blade set by the safety
guards at all times when
handling the blades. Never
attempt to fit or remove the
blades whilst the knife is in
operation Ensure the knife is
switched o before removing
and changing the blades.
1. To insert, select the
matching size of blade set
appropriate to the task.
The two blades for that set
must be interlocked before
inserting into the electric
knife body. To interlock the
blades, hold the shaft ends
below the safety guards and
slip the rivet found on one
blade onto the tip of the
other blade.
NOTE
Always use both blades in the
blade set when operating the
electric knife.

2. Hold the assembled
blades by the safety
guards and insert blades
into the individual blade
slots (See Fig. 1). A click
will sound when locked
into position.

NOTE
Ensure both blades in the
blade set click into position
before use.

This knife was tested by
slicing through the length of
a hard sausage. The sausage
is approximately 55 mm in
