CLEANING WARNING: TURN THE MACHINE OFF AND UNPLUG THE ELECTRICAL CORD BEFORE CLEANING. Clean the machine immediately after each use. Dismantle all removable parts from the machine and wash them in warm water and detergent. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth. Allowing food juices to dry on the machine may cause discoloration. NEVER clean cutting tools or other aluminum parts in highly alkaline dishwashing solutions or in excessively hot water.
CUTTING TOOL GUIDE Slicers Fractional sizes are in inches (millimeters are in parentheses). Use Fine and Standard Slicers for sliced products and for dicing. Soft products like tomato - use the FINE SLICER, not the STANDARD SLICER. FINE SLICER 1 ⁄16 (1.5 mm) FINE SLICER 1 ⁄8 (3 mm) FINE SLICER 5 ⁄32 (4 mm) FINE SLICER 7 ⁄32 (6 mm) FINE SLICER 3 ⁄8 (10 mm) PL-51799-2 STANDARD SLICER 3 ⁄8 (10 mm) HD Slices firm materials. Use with 3 ⁄8" (10 mm) dicing grid.
Dicer and French Fry Plates The recommended slicer plate will produce near cube-shaped products. The DICER grid dimension must be equal to or larger than the SLICER dimension.
MAINTENANCE WARNING: TURN THE MACHINE OFF AND UNPLUG THE ELECTRICAL CORD BEFORE DOING ANY MAINTENANCE. Routinely inspect the machine to make sure that it is in proper working order. Plates must be clean, intact and sharp. The knife shaft should be regularly lubricated with a drop of mineral oil, NOT COOKING OIL. REPLACEMENT DICING GRIDS Depending on usage, dicing grids become dull from wear with an average life expectancy from 8 – 18 months. Dicing grids cannot be resharpened and are therefore expendable.
SYMPTOM Low output or bad cutting results. Cutting tool locked to shaft. POSSIBLE CAUSE SUGGESTED ACTION A. Wrong cutting tool used. Refer to Cutting Tool Guide, pages 9,10. B. Wrong combination of dicing grid and slicing tool when dicing (space between the two cutting tools is too large). Refer to Cutting Tool Guide, pages 9,10. C. Problem with blade or grating plate. Make sure blades or grating plates are intact and sharp. D. Feeding pressure too heavy.
