Operator`s manual
Observe the cleaning instruction on Page 8 for best results and for safety. Also remember to always turn
off the slicer and disconnect the electrical supply cord before cleaning. When slicing, always work the
carriage using only the carriage arm handle (Figure 1 [9]). Do not hold or push the carriage from any other
place.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
The Univex slicer is designed to meet the cook's demand for an efficient, sturdy slicer. The Univex slicer
will give unfailing performance over a period of years, when operated and maintained according to
instructions contained herein.
START/STOP SWITCH
The slicer is started by pulling the ON/OFF push/pull switch (Figure 1 [2]).
SLICE ADJUSTMENT
Warning: Dial type knob adjustment (Figure 1 [14]) allows for slice thickness ranging from paper
thin up to 13/16". Dial graduations allow you to precisely set up specific slice thickness
for various needs. When not in use, always return knob back to its fully closed position
(beyond "0") so that the knife edge is not exposed.
PRODUCT CARRIAGE
Caution: A last slice gravity feed grip (Figure 1 [8]) is provided to hold the product in place as it is
being sliced. Do not use this last slice device to work the carriage back and forth. Use only
the carriage arm handle (Figure 1 [9]). Always make sure the carriage is positively secured
to the slicer by checking to see that the carriage arm knob (Figure 1, [11]) is fully tightened.
PROTECTIVE GUARD
Warning: The protective guard (Figure 1 [13]) covers the knife edge completely except at the forward
edge where slicing will be performed. This forward edge is covered by the edge of the
fence, but only when the slice adjustment is completely closed. The knife guard (Figure 1
[5]) can be removed for cleaning by unscrewing the knife guard knob. For safety, keep the
knife guard on at all times except when cleaning. Never operate the slicer with the knife
guard removed.
AUTOMATIC MODE
Warning: Never switch the slicer from Manual to Automatic while the unit is running. This can cause
damage to the gearbox and Automatic drive train.
Pull carriage to its full stop position towards the thickness control knob (Figure 1 [14]). Switch
Automatic Lever (Figure 1, [12]) counterclockwise to engage the Automatic drive. Set product in
carriage, select desired thickness and turn slicer on. Once the desired quantity is reached, turn
slicer off and return Automatic Lever to Manual position. This will ensure that the unit is not
accidentally started in Automatic mode.
