MAINTENANCE
Unplug the machine power cord and turn the index knob fully clockwise to
close the gauge plate before doing any maintenance on the slicer.
KNIFE SHARPENING
The CleanCut
TM
K NIFE will provide long service in normal food retail or commercial kitchen use. Sharpen
only when necessary; prolonged or too frequent sharpening results in unnecessary K
NIFE wear.
Remove the T
OP KNIFE COVER and the plastic RING GUARD COVER.
Turn the L
ATCH KNOB counterclockwise and lift the TOP KNIFE
COVER and plastic RING GUARD COVER off the slicer (Figs. 5, 6 & 7).
Thoroughly wash the area around the K
NIFE and both sides of the
outer rim of the K
NIFE. Food debris should not be allowed to
transfer from the K
NIFE to the SHARPENER. Plug in the machine
power cord. Press the K
NIFE ON button (Fig. 9 or Fig. 10) with
your right hand while pulling the S
HARPENER LEVER fully forward
with your left hand (Fig. 29). Sharpen for approximately
8 seconds. Release the S
HARPENER LEVER. Press the OFF button.
Unplug the SLICER power cord. Wipe the slicer with a clean damp
cloth to remove any grinding particles. Reinstall the plastic R
ING
GUARD COVER and the TOP KNIFE COVER.
LUBRICATION — Carriage Slide Rod
The slicer lubrication system requires that the reservoirs under the C
ARRIAGE TRANSPORT be refilled with
Lubriplate FMO-200-AW oil (supplied) after approximately one year of operation for a manual slicer
(model 3613) and after approximately six months of operation for an automatic slicer (model 3713).
Typical operation is estimated to be 3 hours of slicing per day. To check whether the reservoirs are
empty, lift up the front of the slicer base and allow the C
LEANING LEG to swing straight down; pull the
C
LEANING LEG all the way to the front (Fig. 18).
Remove the S
IDE PANEL (Fig. 7) (4 screws) and look
through the C
ARRIAGE SLOT (Fig. 7) to observe the
oil level in the C
LEAR PLASTIC RESERVOIRS under the
C
ARRIAGE TRANSPORT (Fig. 30). A flashlight (not
supplied) might be helpful. To replenish the oil
reservoirs, aim the telescoping tube on the
Lubriplate FMO-200-AW oil bottle at the R
ESERVOIR
FUNNELS above the FRONT and REAR BEARING BLOCKS.
Gently squeeze the sides of the bottle to add drops
slowly to the reservoir(s) (Fig. 30). Move the
C
ARRIAGE TRANSPORT as necessary to access the
front and rear R
ESERVOIR FUNNELS. The drops will
slowly feed into the C
LEAR PLASTIC RESERVOIRS.
Replace the S
IDE PANEL.
SERVICE
Contact your local Hobart-authorized service office for any repairs or adjustments needed on the slicer.
