Adhere to the following procedure:
1. Lift the goods presser, load the go-ods on the
plate, bringing it close to the thickness gauge,
block it with the proper toothed arm;
2. regulate the desired thickness of the cut with
the graduated handgrip;
3. assume a correct position to avoid accident:
place the right hand on the goods presser
handgrip and, then the left hand next to the
slice guard to take the cut product (without
tou-ching the blade); the body must be
perpendicular to the work plane (Fig. n°37).
WARNING: Do not assume positions
which bring body parts in direct contact
with the blade (ex. Fig. n°38);
4.
5.
6.
then push the “ON” push-button; push the
carriage (plate + goods presser arm +
stem) gently towards the blade, without
applying excessi-ve pressure on the product
with the goods presser arm. The goods will
easily enter the blade, and the slice guided
by the proper sliceguard will detach and fall
on the plane (Fig. n°39);
avoid running the slicer when empty ;
7. at the end of the cutting operation, stop the
machine by putting the switch in the
“OFF” (ARREST) position and put the
graduated han-dgrip at “0”;
8. Carry out resharpening the blade as soon as
the cut product has a threa-ded or rough
surface, therefore the cutting effort increases
(chapter 5.3).
5.2 - LOADING AND CUTTING THE PRODUCT
WARNING: The goods to be cut are loaded on the plate only with the graduated handgrip at “0” and
the motor stopped, being careful with the blade and the points.

so it is degreased; lift (a) the sharpener (1)
and turn it 180° (b Fig. n°40);
5.3 - SHARPENING THE BLADE
WARNING: Before starting to sharpen the blade, pay attention to RESI-DUAL RISKS
(chapter 4.2.2) concerning the dangers of cutting without ha-ving followed the instructions
listed below.
To sharpen the blade, which needs to be done periodically as soon a decrease in cutting is
noticed, the following directions must be adhered to:

4. check also that the blade stays be-tween the
two grinders;
5. insert the pin and start the machine, by
pressing the “ON” push-button;
6. press the push-button (2 Fig.n°42), let the
blade rotate in contact with the grinder for about
30/40 sec. so that a slight burr forms on the
blade edge;
7. press the 2 push-buttons (2 and 3)
contemporaneously for 3/4 sec. and release
them in thesame instant (Fig. n°43);
8. after having completed the sharpe-ning it is
advisable to clean the grin-ders and the blade
(chapter 6.2.3);
