SAFETY DEVICES MOUNTED ON THE SLICER
MECHANICAL SAFETY
For what concerns mechanical safety, the slicers described in this manual are compliant
with the Machine Directive 2006/42/EC and with the standard EN 1974 (Slicers,
characteristics of safety and hygiene).
The safety devices are:
- blade guard
- fixed, unmovable blade guard ring around the blade
- sharpener cover
WARNING!
“WARNINGS FOR RESIDUAL RISKS”
Machine Directive 2006/42/EC, it is intended that the blade guard ring near the
sharpener area do not totally eliminate the risk of cutting. To reduce this risk, the
ring is manufactured according to European standard EN 1974.

MOUNTING OF THE FLYWHEEL (VOLANO)
1. Move the carriage towards the operator (Fig. n.1)
Fig. n.1
2. Extract the taper pin from the shaft of the flywheel:
WARNING! Beat the pin with a hammer on the end with the smaller diameter (Fig. n.2)
Fig. n.2

User’s manual – Flywheel slicers mod. V330-V370 page 9
3. Insert the flywheel so that the maneuvering handle is located in the upper left of the axis
of the hole for the taper pin fixing (Fig. n.3).
Verify the correct matching flywheel sleeve-shaft.
Fig. n.3
4. Insert the pin into the sleeve, as shown in Fig. n. 4, with the tapered end (smaller
diameter) facing the sleeve itself. Beat the opposite end of the pin (greater diameter) with
a hammer, plugging it completely (Fig. n.4).

INSTALLATION
MACHINE POSITIONING
Before installing the slicer you must make sure that the installation area fits the size
indicated on the tables technical support (depending on model) and then be large enough,
be perfectly level, dry, smooth, robust and stable.
WARNING! IN ORDER TO KEEP HOLD OF THE COLD CUTS AND SALAMI, THE
PLATE AND MEAT PUSHER SURFACES ARE EQUIPPED WITH POINTED PINS. YOU
SHOULD USE SLIP AND CUT-RESISTANT GLOVES AND PERFORM CLEANING
USING A STIFF NYLON BRISTLE BRUSH.
CLEANING OF THE MACHINE
For cleaning, use a cloth dampened with plain water and neutral liquid detergent for
dishes, and a soft cloth for drying.
The slicer, even if made of material resistant to oxidation, should not be subjected to
washing with water jets or sprinkles. The same is true for the group sharpener.

USE OF THE MACHINE
The product to slice must be loaded and removed from the plate only when the machine is
not in operation.
Rotate the flywheel (23) by moving the carriage towards the operator, lift the self-blocking
(15) and position the product to slice on the plate (18).
Lower the self-blocking arm down (15) blocking the product.
By using the slice thickness handgrip (6), set the requested slice thickness.
Before you begin cutting the product, remove the front blade guard (3) by loosening the
knob and move it from position (A) to position (B) thus discovering the blade itself.
Lock the blade guard front (3) in the new position by tightening the knob.
WARNING! DANGER OF CUTTING
USE ALWAYS SLIP AND CUT-RESISTANT GLOVES. OPERATE WITH GREAT
ATTENTION, WITHOUT DISTRACTIONS.
WHEN YOU DO NOT USE THE MACHINE, NEVER LEAVE IT WITH THE BLADE
UNCOVERED.
Grab the articulated handle (22), turn the flywheel (23) in clockwise direction at constant
speed, and proportional to the hardness of the product to be cut.
Return the blade guard front (3) at rest (A) when the cutting is completed.
Remove the salami or cold cut by releasing the locking arm (15).

User’s manual – Flywheel slicers mod. V330-V370 page 14
SHARPENING OF THE BLADE
The blade sharpening must be executed only after the blade has been cleaned.
The frequency and duration of the sharpening operation depends on the blade condition
and on the type of products that are usually cut.
Given the extreme rapidity of the operation, we suggest to sharpen the blade frequently (at
least once a day).
1. Lift the sharpener including its cap by the wheel (24) as far as it stops (1) by rotating
180° clockwise. Take the sharpener down as far as it stops (3) so that the blade is
between the two stones.
2. Rotate the flywheel clockwise and contemporarily press the button of the sharpening
stone (12) and keep the stone in contact with the blade until a thin burr is visible on the
blade.
3. Keep the button of the burring stone (13) pressed for a few turns until the burr is
completely eliminated.
4. When the sharpening is over, take the sharpener back to its original position repeating
step 1 backward.
AFTER EACH SHARPENING OPERATION, IT IS RECOMMENDED TO CLEAN THE
SHARPENING STONES AND THE BLADE.
See page 5 MECHANICAL SAFETY

User’s manual – Flywheel slicers mod. V330-V370 page 15
PERIODICAL CLEANING
All the EC professional slicers are manufactured according to standards concerning
mechanical safety during operation, cleaning or maintenance.
There are anyhow RESIDUAL RISKS (MACHINES DIRECTIVES 2006/42/CE) that cannot
be fully eliminated. We refer to them in this manual using the word WARNING! They
concern the danger of cutting derived from the manipulation of the blade during the
cleaning and maintenance.
The cleaning of the machine is an operation to be performed at least once a day, or, if
necessary, more frequently.
Cleaning should be scrupulously carried out especially for the parts coming into direct or
indirect contact with the product being cut.
The slicer must not be cleaned with pressure washers or high-pressure jets. It is forbidden
to use brushes or any other instrument that could cause damage to the machine.

3. Lift the group up and extract the plate.
4. The group can be removed from the slicer and thoroughly cleaned.
CLEANING OF THE SHARPENER
•The cleaning of the sharpener body must be carried out using a cloth dampened with
neutral detergents; to clean the stones, use a brush with metal thread.
CLEANING OF THE BLADE AND OF THE RING
WARNING! THIS MUST BE DONE CAREFULLY AS THERE IS DANGER OF CUTTING.
IT WOULD BE ADVISABLE TO BRING SUITABLE PROTECTIVE GLOVES.
1) Use a damp cloth, press on the blade surface on the blade guard side and on the
opposite side and move it slowly from the centre outward.
2) Repeat the above with a dry cloth to dry the blade.
3) Pass a cloth dampened in the space between the blade and blade guard ring, make
it turn once with the blade.

ORDINARY MAINTENANCE OF THE SLICER
As follows the operations of ordinary maintenance that need to be carried out by the
operator using the slicer:
A. CHECK THE BLADE DIAMETER AFTER EACH SHARPENING OPERATION IN
ORDER TO SCHEDULE THE REPLACEMENT OF THE BLADE WHEN THE DIAMETER
IS REDUCED OF ABOUT 10 MM (CALL THE CLOSEST SERVICE CENTER).
LUBRIFICAZIONE DELLE SUPERFICI DI SCORRIMENTO CON OLIO DI VASELINA.
B. LUBRICATE THE SLIDING SURFACES WITH VASELINE OIL.
C. CHECK THAT THE SHARPENING STONES RETAIN THEIR ABRASIVITY
DURING SHARPENING. OTHERWISE, REPLACE THEM TO PREVENT THE BLADE
FROM DAMAGING. TO DO SO CALL THE CLOSEST SERVICE CENTRE).

DEMOLITION AND DISPOSAL
INFORMATION FOR ALL THE USERS
As per the article 13 of the Italian Law of July 25th 2005 n. 151: “Implementation of
Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC, regarding the reduction of
hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, and waste disposal.”
The crossed out wheeled bin symbol on the slicer indicates that the product at the end of
its useful life must be collected separately from other waste.
The user should, therefore, take the slicer to an appropriate recycling centre for electronic
and electrical waste, or hand it to the dealer when buying a new, equivalent slicer.
The separate collection of the slicer for subsequent recycling, treatment and
environmentally compatible disposal helps to avoid possible negative effects on the
environment and health and promotes recycling of materials.
Illegal disposal of the product by the user involves the application of administrative
penalties provided by law.
