SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
TO STORETHE SLICER, SWITCH POWERTO“OFF”POSITION, UNPLUG SLICER FROM OUTLET AND SET THICKNESS ADJUSTMENT
KNOB TO“0” SETTING.
1. Before cleaning the slicer, switch to the O position, unplug from electrical outlet and set the Graduated Knob to the“0”
setting.
2. DO NOT immerse the slicer in water.
3. DANGER of injury: the cutting blade is very sharp and heavy!
It is highly recommended to wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the blade. Cut resistant gloves are available
at LEM Products.
It is necessary to clean the slicer at after each use as perishable food scraps could accumulate on the slicer or behind the cutting
blade. Remove the Blade Guard (Page #4 -F) by turning the Blade Guard Knob (Page #4 -D) on the rear of the slicer. Remove
three screws that hold the blade using a Philips screwdriver. Be careful to handle the Blade (Page #4 - C) by the center, taking
care not to touch the edges. THE BLADE IS SHARP! To remove the Sliding Food Tray (Page #4 -G): remove the Knob (Page #4 -H)
by unscrewing, and lift the Sliding FoodTray (Page #4 -G) in an upward motion to completely remove. Wash by hand in warm,
soapy water. Rinse and air dry. Clean the housing, behind the blade, with a dry cloth or soft brush. Reassemble. When replacing
the Blade Guard (Page #4 -F) the red arrow should be pointing to the left when facing the unit. Blade spins in a counter-clock-
wise direction.
If the Sliding FoodTray no longer moves smoothly, it may be necessary to lubricate the sliding bar withVaseline petroleum jelly.
To do this, switch the slicer to O, remove plug from electrical outlet and place the food slicer on its side. Take a cotton swab and
generously lubricate the bar.
Should the Blade Transmission Belt slip (this can be seen when the blade stops rotating during slicing), the correct tension can
be achieved as follows:
• Make sure machine is unplugged and Graduated Knob is set to“0”.
• Turn the slicer on its back so the bottom of the unit is visible.
• Remove the bottom cover.
• Loosen the nuts on the tension belt bolt then turn the bolt in a clockwise direction to achieve the correct tension
on the belt.
• Tighten the nuts on the bolt.
Note:Always align food support with the blade for safety and blade protection during storage and maintenance.
This is accomplished by returning the thickness adjustment knob to the “0”position.
• Unplug slicer and allow it to cool completely before storing.
• Store slicer in a secure and dry place out of reach of children.
• Slicer should be stored unplugged, in upright position on a stable surface, preferably in the original packaging.
