•Cutting Operation:
1. Turn the power switch to "1" (on). At that moment the blade begins to rotate;
3. With the right hand, take the slice behind the blade, avoiding contact with the cutting area. Stack
the slices on fixed table.
4. Pull the movable table towards you and repeat the procedure until the end of the process;
ATTENTION!
When moving the table back, be careful that the food does not touch the back (flat part) of
the blade. In this way there is no risk of the food moving or even releasing the blade from
the fly wheels, causing accidents.
5. After completing the cutting procedure, turn off the equipment by pressing the power button in
the "0" (off) position.
ATTENTION!
Always use the movable table and the pusher of the equipment to direct the food against the
blade. In no circumstances push with any other instrument or your own hands the food
against the blade.

11
IMPORTANT
Check the blade tension. When the tension is insufficient, cutting deviations and premature
wear of the blade occur. If it is necessary to adjust it, follow the instructions in item 5.2
(Maintenance and Procedures in Case of Breakdowns) of this manual.
ATTENTION!
Never place your hands, fingers or objects (such as spoons and knives) on the cutting blade
while the equipment is on as this may cause serious injury.
ATTENTION!
If you notice that the equipment can not slice the food or that it is not slicing, do not cut
foods too thick, so as not to impair the speed and performance of the motor and the life of
the equipment.
Failure to observe this guideline will be considered as unsafe act and abusive use of
equipment.
Any irregularities please contact the authorized service center nearest you.
5. Cleaning and Maintenance
5.1 Cleaning Procedures and Products Used
Your equipment was built with first-line materials, so use it properly and you will get great
satisfaction. Keep your equipment always clean and well-cared for, which will make it much more
durable.
A daily cleaning of the equipment must be carried out for good operation and durability.
ATTENTION!
Before performing maintenance or cleaning, make sure that the main switch (switch) is off
and that the plug is disconnected from the mains.
ATTENTION!
Do not use water jet to clean the equipment.

12
IMPORTANT
This equipment is not intended to be immersed in water for cleaning.
The equipment should be cleaned as many times as possible to prevent food residue from
drying out and sticking to parts. For cleaning, dilute soap or neutral detergent or ammonia-based
remover in warm water and apply with a soft cloth. With a cloth moistened with water, rinse and then
wipe the parts with a dry cloth.
Never use abrasive products or sponges and substances containing acids or chlorine to clean
the metal parts, as they may scratch or damage the surface of the parts causing corrosion. Do not
spill water on the engine and electrical parts for cleaning, otherwise, turning it on may cause electric
shock or even burn the equipment.
ATTENTION!
It is extremely important that products used in cleaning ensure maximum cleanliness and
are non-toxic.
Dry the blade thoroughly. Moisture compromises the life of the blade and yield of the
cutting process.
ATTENTION!
Take care when cleaning near the blade, it is extremely sharp. Handle with care because this
may cause accidents. The same attention is paid to any other cutting component of the
5.2 Maintenance and Procedures in Case of Breakdowns
The operator must be instructed to perform routine inspections, making minor adjustments,
cleaning and observing signs of breaches that may occur. Examples include: checking for strange
noise; loss of equipment power; the non-execution by the equipment of the service to which it is
proposed; among others. Actions like these are indispensable to ensure a longer equipment life.
ATTENTION!
When servicing (even minor adjustments), always disconnect the equipment from the mains.
It is recommended to carry out preventive maintenance every 6 months, checking and
adjusting clearances, cleaning internal parts, wear and tightening (tensioning) of the motor belt
(following guidelines), lubrication of the movable table, etc. When detecting broken or weakened
parts, replace with original parts.

13
By performing preventive maintenance, you eliminate the inconvenience of getting the
equipment stopped when you need it most, reducing the cost of maintenance and reducing the risk of
accidents.
ATTENTION!
Before adjusting or changing the blade, make sure the equipment is disconnected from the
mains, if the operator is using the appropriate PPE (personal protective equipment) and
suitable tools for disassembly and assembly of the following parts.
•Procedure for Adjusting and Changing the Blade (Band Saw):
Blade Adjustment:
1. Disconnect the equipment from the mains;
2. Remove the back cover of the equipment by unscrewing the screws;
3. To move the blade tensioner, loosen the nut. If your need is to stretch the blade, facing
the blade tensioner, turn the adjusting knob clockwise. And to loosen the blade, turn the
knob counterclockwise;
4. After proper tensioning of the blade, tighten the nut again, securing the blade tensioner;
5. Reassemble the tensioner protection with the screws.

14
Blade Exchange:
11. Before attaching the new blade to the wheels, note the direction of the blade teeth, where
they should be facing forward and pointing downwards;
12. The blade should be positioned centrally on the steering wheels;

15
13. After proper tensioning of the blade, as instructed a little (Blade Adjustment Procedure),
retighten the blade tensioner nut;
14. Insert the cover of the tensioner by fastening it with the screws;
15. Assemble the door again, fitting the left side in the supports and fixing the right side with
the screws.
ATTENTION!
Check the ideal tension of the blade before starting the cutting process, because when the
tension is insufficient, cutting deviations occur and premature wear of the blade. Excessive
tension, in turn, can cause the blade to break.
•Adjustment / Tensioning Belt Procedure:
1. Disconnect the equipment from the mains;
2. Remove the back cover of the equipment by unscrewing the 04 screws;
