1. INTRODUCTION
The new Primo semiautomatic slicer is an improved table
styled meat slicer. Its design provides sufficient pressure on the
meat, resulting with better thickness control and cleaner slices.
These improvements allow for ease of operation. Operators
will be able to easily slide the deck support. Cleaning and
maintaining the slicer is easy, allowing for quicker product
changes.

3. SLICING
ŸBefore the machine is used, the gliding systems and the pressing
pole should be cleaned and well lubricated. This will allow for smooth
movements of the carriage and pusher when slicing a wide variety of
meats. Best results are achieved when the meat is unfrozen.
Recommended temperatures for meat products are 4°C / 40°F. In
some cases, frozen meats can be sliced, but the temperature range
should remain between -5°C/25°F and 4°C/40°F for best results.
ŸRaise the Meat pressure Plate and place the meat onto the Meat
Support Deck.
ŸStart the machine by pressing the Green Power button located on the
side of the machine.
ŸAdjust the slice thickness by turning the Thickness Adjustment knob
located on the side of the machine. You have a good range of
thicknesses to meet your customers' requirements.
ŸThe meat is sliced by sliding the meat Deck past the cutting blade.
You pull the Meat Deck back to repeat the process. Continue until you
have completed the order. Upon completion, move the meat Deck
back off of the blade before removing the meat from the slicer.
4. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
BLADE SHARPENING
ŸNote: Insure the unit is OFF before
starting the blade sharpening operation.
Do not rush through this operation. Care
should be taken to avoid injury from the
rotating components.
ŸThe blade should be sharpened
frequently to achieve best results.
ŸClean the blade thoroughly to remove all
debris. This debris can accumulate in the sharpening stone, reducing
the sharpening capacity. The stone should be
cleaned after each sharpening to again remove
any debris caught on the stone.
ŸStep 1- Loosen the knob that secures the
sharpening stones
ŸStep 2-Pull up on the stone assembly and rotate
the assembly 180 degrees so that the stones
come in contact with the blade.
ŸStep 3- Tighten the knob to secure the stone
assembly in place.
ŸStep 4- Press the green power button located on the side of the slicer.
Ensure the blade is turning

ŸStep 5- Locate the stone support pins located on the outside of the
stone assembly. One is for the front and one is for the back of the
blade. Place your hand on the top of the stone assembly guard and
with your thumb push onto the pin located on the side of the assembly
so that the stone contacts the blade. Hold this for 20-40 seconds.
Repeat for the other stone – making sure you use your thumb to push
the pin. This is to prevent your fingers from potential injury due to the
rotating blade.
ŸStep 6- Turn the power OFF and once the blade has stopped turning,
wipe the blade to remove any debris.
ŸStep 7- Loosen the knob on the stone assembly, lift up and rotate 180
degrees into its stored position. Tighten knob to secure the assembly
in place.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
ŸAll moving parts both static and automatic should be properly
lubricated to maintain years of smooth operation of your slicer.
Mineral oil must be used to lubricate the sliding parts.
ŸInspect all safety guards, the condition of the power cord and the
overall condition of all the components of your slicer for cleanliness
and integrity (no frayed ends or burrs)
ŸVisually inspect the blade. Ensure there are no nicks or cracks nor
debris.
ŸPower on the slicer and inspect for smooth rotation of the blade. If
you hear any abnormal noises, stop the slicer, unplug the unit and
have a qualified service technician fix any issues. Continued use of
the slicer, if abnormal noises are present could damage the unit and
void your warranty. Noises such as rubbing, grinding or excessive
vibration are a concern. An ozone or burnt smell could indicate an
electrical problem. Unplug the unit immediately if you smell burning or
ozone.
ŸIf service is required for your slicer, unplug the unit from the wall
before dismantling the unit. Failure to do so could result in an electric
shock to the service technician.
ŸWhen cleaning the unit, it must be UNPLUGGED first. Use warm
soapy water, not harsh chemicals and never use a pressure washer.
Care must be taken when cleaning near or around the blade. The use
of safety gloves is recommended. Unscrew the blade cover knob.
Remove the blade cover to clean
the blade.
