Installation, Operation, and Care of Model 2812PS Slicer with Portion Scale SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL The Hobart Model 2812PS Slicer with Portion Scale displays the weight or slice count as the sliced product falls to the platter. Four preset values (P1 thru P4) can be programmed with weight or slice count and are readily accessed for portioning. A memory register (M) allows any current weight or key entered weight or slice count to be used for portioning.
INSTALLATION UNPACKING Immediately after unpacking the slicer, check for possible shipping damage. If the slicer is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery. Prior to installing the slicer, test the electrical service to assure it agrees with the specifications on the machine data plate. The data plate is located on the right side of the slicer base.
OPERATION SAFETY SAFETY DEVICES INCORPORATED IN THIS SLICER MUST BE IN THEIR CORRECT OPERATING POSITIONS ANYTIME THE SLICER IS IN USE. The TOP KNIFE COVER must be in position and secured with the LATCH KNOB (Fig. 2). The RING GUARD is not removable. The DEFLECTOR, mounted below the slicer knife, can be removed for cleaning. The MEAT GRIP (Fig. 2) must be used when slicing short ends to keep your hand(s) away from the knife. When the slicer is not running, the INDEX KNOB (Fig.

WEIGHT MODE The scale is ready to weigh if the zero indicator is displayed when the platter is empty. Tare is permitted. Once invoked, the Tare value is set for all WEIGHT mode operations: Manual mode, Presets (P1 – P4), and Memory (M). The Tare value can be changed or turned off at any time.

Slice is displayed instead of the WEIGHT mode indicator, lb (or oz).
USING THE PRESETS: P1, P2, P3, P4 Press any Preset key — the last-saved values will be called up. For example, let's press the [ 1 ] Preset key and assume that the factory settings have not been changed. In Weight Mode . . .

CLEANING This machine must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized after each day’s operation or after being idle for an extended period of time. WARNING: THE SLICER KNIFE IS VERY SHARP. EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN WORKING NEAR THE KNIFE. WARNING: UNPLUG MACHINE POWER CORD AND TURN THE INDEX KNOB FULLY CLOCKWISE BEFORE CLEANING THE SLICER. Use a clean cloth soaked in mild detergent and warm water to wipe all surfaces of the machine. Rinse using a fresh cloth and clean water.
Do not exceed chemical manufacturer's recommended concentrations for detergent or sanitizer. Do not exceed 200 parts per million concentration of available chlorine. For example, mixing 1 tablespoon of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite bleach with 1 gallon of water yields a solution containing 200 ppm of available chlorine. Solution with concentrations greater than 200 ppm will accelerate corrosion of metals. Maximum exposure to sanitation solution varies with temperature and concentration. Rinse with clean water.
MAINTENANCE KNIFE SHARPENING The Hobart cast stainless steel knife will provide long service in normal food retail or commercial kitchen use. However, in high volume applications where it is a practice to sharpen the knife frequently or even daily, the knife will be expended in a shorter time. Sharpen only when necessary; prolonged or too frequent sharpening results in unnecessary knife wear. WARNING: UNPLUG MACHINE POWER CORD. Turn the index knob fully clockwise to close the gauge plate.
