Unpacking

Unpack the slicer immediately after receipt. Please inspect the slicer to ensure there is no damage and that all

parts are included i.e. Knobs, Feet and Knife Removing Tool. If the machine is found to be damaged, keep all the

packaging material and contact us or contact your source of the equipment immediately.

You should receive with your slicer: 1 x Metcalfe Tasteless Oil 1 x Flat Head Screwdriver

1 x Instruction Manual 1 x Knife Removing Tool

If any of the above items were not received with your slicer, please refer to page 14 for contact details and inform

us immediately for replacements.

Please ensure that you complete the product information section on page 14.

Installation

1. Read this manual thoroughly before installation and operation. DO NOT proceed with any installation nor

operation if you have any questions or do not understand anything in this manual. Please see Metcalfe

Catering Equipment Ltd contact details on page 14 to resolve any queries you may have.

2. Make sure to clean and sanitise the entire slicer before use (see Cleaning Instructions on Pages 8-10).

3. Select a location for the slicer that is level, smooth, solid, dry, non-skid and suitable to withstand the weight

of the slicer plus the food to be sliced.

Operation

1. Ensure the slicer is turned off and that the

thickness selection knob is set to “0”.

2. Pull back the carriage completely (towards

the operator) to the loading position.

3. Lift the end device up, into the rest position.

4. Place product onto the table, the product will

press against the fence plate because of its

weight. Block it with the end device by

lowering it onto the product and pressing

down slightly.

5. Rotate the thickness selection knob anti-

clockwise to the desired setting.

6. Turn the slicer on by pushing the start button.

The power indicator light, which is located

between the on/off switch, will illuminate.

DO NOT hold the food product with your hand.

Never put your hand on or around the table

while the slicer is on. The end device handle is

the only part of the slicer you should touch

while slicing.

7. Grip the handle attached to the meat table

support and manually push the carriage back

and forth. This handle and the end device

handle are the only parts of the slicer you

should touch while slicing. DO NOT catch slices

with your hands, let slices drop onto the

receiving area.

If a product needs to be adjusted during slicing,

first turn the slicer off and then pull the table

all the way towards you.

8. When the weight or size of the product does not

allow a proper slice, use the end device handle

and apply some pressure to the product.

9. After the last slice stroke, pull the carriage all the

way towards you. Turn the slicer off by pressing

the stop button, the power indicator light will go

out. Turn the thickness selection knob clockwise

until it stops to close the slicer table.

10. You can now unload the product from the table.

Cleaning Instructions

Daily cleaning should be considered mandatory for all equipment used in the preparation of food. When using a

meat slicer and with the possibility of cross contamination, these units should be cleaned before slicing each new

product. Once your slicer makes contact with any food product, the entire slicer, including removable parts, must

be thoroughly cleaned. This process is to be repeated at the end of each working day. If the machine has not been

used for a while it must be cleaned before use.

In order to ensure the slicer is cleaned properly and to avoid damage, the instructions below should be followed.

Disassembly

Turn slicer off and unplug from mains.

Turn the thickness selection knob clockwise past “0” until it stops so the fence plate covers the blade.

Disassembling the table

•With the thickness selection knob on “0” pull

back the carriage all the way to the left.

•Whilst supporting the table, turn the table

locking knob anti-clockwise all the way until

you hear the click of the pin locking into place.

It may be necessary to move the thickness

selection knob 1-2mm over the ‘0’ position at

the same time.

•Once fully unscrewed lift the whole of the table

and carriage from the machine.

Disassembling the centre plate (blade cover)

•Unscrew the centre plate spindle knob (anti-

clockwise) and remove from the rear of the

machine.

the bottom.

Disassembling the knife

•Loosen the screw at the rear of the knife

sharpener without removing it (about 10

turns).

Cleaning

•Only use warm water and a mild detergent to

clean all parts, using a soft, spongy cloth and

nylon brush.

•Do not use other metal products to scrape or

remove stubborn deposits of sliced product.

•Never leave any leftover product on the slicer

(Clean at least once a day).

•DO NOT clean the unit, or any parts of the unit

sponge, rinsing frequently with hot water. Dry

carefully.

Cleaning the knife

cloth between the blade and the back knife
