The large feed compartment is also used when
the product is to be cut in a specific direction,
such as tomatoes and lemons. Place/stack the
products as shown in the picture.
The built-in feed tube is used for cutting long
products such as cucumbers, see picture.

the guide groove on the machine base. Then
place the slicer so that it drops firmly down
into its position.
When using the push feeder, fit the decoring
device by turning it anti-clockwise by means

CLEANING
Read all of the instructions before you begin
to clean the machine.
BEFORE CLEANING: Always switch off the
machine and remove the power supply plug
from the socket. Alternatively, if the machine
does not have a plug, turn off the main switch.
Remove all the removable parts that are to
be cleaned.
CLEANING IN A DISHWASHER: All plastic
parts are machine washable. NOTE! Never
wash metal parts in a dishwasher, unless
they are made of stainless steel. Cleaning
aluminium parts in a dishwasher will cause
them to blacken. This can be difficult to remove
and could stain other objects.
CLEANING BY HAND: Always use hand
dishwashing liquid.
CLEANING MATERIALS: Use the brush
supplied with the machine or a similar one to
clean the food zones. The knife shaft in the
centre of the machine can be cleaned with a
small bottlebrush. Use a damp cloth to wipe
down the other surfaces on the machine.
DISINFECTION: Use isopropyl alcohol (65–
70%). Isopropyl alcohol is highly inflammable
so use caution when applying it.
WARNING:
• Do not pour or spray water onto the sides of
the machine.
• Do not use boiling or hot water.
• Do not use sodium hypochlorite (chlorine)
or any agent containing this substance.
• Do not use sharp objects or any objects not
intended for the purpose of cleaning.
• Do not use abrasive detergents or cleaning
products.
AVOID: Do not use cleaning sponges with
scouring pads (e.g. Scotch-Brite™) unless
absolutely necessary. This roughens the
surface and makes it less water repellent.
ADVICE ON CARE:
• Clean the machine immediately after use.
• Dry the machine immediately after cleaning
to avoid oxidation and discoloration of the
surface.
INFORMATION: If the machine is left damp
for longer periods stains will appear. These
stains are harmless but the original surface
will lose its lustre. Vegetables and fruit contain
acids. Depending on which products are
processed this will have an effect on the metal
after varying periods of time. It is therefore
important to clean the machine immediately
after processing salty and acidic products.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
To eliminate the risk of damage to the motor,
the RG-350 is fitted with thermal motor
protection that automatically switches off the
machine if the temperature of the motor should
become too high. The thermal motor protection
has automatic reset, which means that the
machine can be started again when the motor
has cooled down, which usually takes between
10 and 30 minutes.
FAULT: The machine cannot be started,
or stops while it is running and cannot be
restarted.
REMEDY: Check that the plug is securely
fitted into the power supply socket, or that the
isolating switch is closed. Check that the feed
cylinder for the manual feeder, is locked in the
correct position. Move down the pusher plate
into the manual feed cylinder. Check that the
fuses in the fuse box for the premises have not
blown and that they have the correct rating.
Wait for a few minutes and try to restart the
machine. If the machine still fails to run, call a
qualified electrician or service mechanic.
FAULT: Low capacity or poor cutting results.
REMEDY: Make sure that you are using the
correct cutting tool or combination of cutting
tools. Fit the decoring device. Check that the
knives and grater/shredder plates are in good
condition and are sharp. Press the food down
loosely with less force.
FAULT: The cutting tool cannot be removed.
REMEDY: Always use the ejector plate. Use a
thick leather glove or other glove that the knives
of the cutting tool cannot cut through, and turn
the cutting tool clockwise to release it.
FAULT: The decoring device cannot be
removed.
REMEDY: Use the wrench to unscrew the
decoring device.
