Positioning the Appliance

The Universal Slicer, with its non-slip
feet, will stand securely without slip-
ping on level, clean, dry work surfaces.
Prior to using for the first time, it is
advisable to wipe all parts with a damp
cloth and dry them.
Prior to Using
• Check that the appliance is stable and
connect to the mains using the mains
plug.
• Set the required slice thickness. To do
this, turn the slice thickness adjust-
ment knob (Fig. 2) anticlockwise. Slice
thicknesses from thin to approx.
14 mm can be selected continuously.
The slice thickness adjustment scale
(Fig. 1/J) is not graduated in millime-
tres, it is an arbitrary scale for your ref-
erence. The „0" position is designed to
cover the blade for safety reasons.
• Assemble the slide (Fig. 3). Lift up the
rear wall of the slide until it is at 90º
and then press downwards to the stop.
• Fold down the slicing table.
• Fitting the slide and the holder.
Tilt the slide (Fig. 4) and place in the
guide slot on the side of the slicing
table, swivel into the working position.
Place the holder on the slide from the
right.
Switching On the Universal Slicer
The Universal Slicer is switched on by
applying thumb pressure to the switch
(Fig. 1/K). At the same time the safety
interlock must be disengaged with
another finger (Fig. 5). The circular
blade continues to rotate as long as
the switch remains pressed. When the
switch is released, the appliance
switches off.

Please Note: The circular blade contin-
ues to rotate for a short time after the
appliance is switched off.
After each use, please return the stop
plate to its initial position („0" posi-
tion) by turning the slice thickness
adjustment knob (Fig. 2).
Instructions for Use
To use the Universal Slicer safely and
ensure even slicing, place the item to
be sliced on the slide and press it, if
necessary using the holder, lightly
against the stop plate (Fig. 6). With the
circular blade rotating, the slide is then
moved, together with the item to be
sliced, towards the circular blade, apply
light pressure. After use, return the
stop plate to the „0" position using the
slice thickness adjuster.
Collecting the Slices
Place, for example, a plate in the cut-
out in the housing (Fig. 7).
Removing the Circular Blade
Prior to removing the circular blade, it
is imperative that the stop plate be
placed in the „0" position and that the
appliance is unplugged from the mains.
When carrying out the following steps,
please do not forget: The circular
blade is very sharp!
Unscrew the blade lock (Fig. 8) by turn-
ing it clockwise (left hand thread).
The circular blade can now be removed
from the housing cover.
Fitting the Circular Blade
Place the circular blade in the housing
cover, rotating it slightly if necessary.
The blade must be positioned in the
recess in the housing cover over its
entire periphery. Fit the blade lock by
turning it in an anticlockwise direction
(turn to the left). Tighten the blade
lock.
