this machine without guards in place.
WARNING: The slicing Blade is sharp and dangerous. Never attempt to clear a
product jam with your hands. A severe cutting or abrasion injury could

switched to “OFF”. To prevent personal injury or possible damage to
the Slicer components, wait for the blade to stop completely before
making any adjustments.
IMPORTANT: It is imperative that the Slicer Blade is kept sharp and that the machine
is cleaned frequently. Slicing dense products or those with additives
such as raisins, nuts, or dried fruit chips may cause premature unit
wear or even failure if:
1) The Blade is not kept sharp.
2) The Slicer is not cleaned frequently.
3) The rate at which the product is fed into the Slicer is too great.
IMPORTANT: Safety and instructional labels are easily visible to the operator and
are located near any area of potential danger. Replace any decal that
becomes damaged or worn.
