MECHANICS MAINTENANCE
Every year a mechanic or service technician should perform the following inspection and
carry out the respective maintenance as required:
Warning
FOR SAFETY, TURN OFF SLICER AND DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL
CORD.
BELT DRIVE This drive features a multi-ribbed high performance belt for
long trouble-free service. Inspect belt for proper tension.
If worn, replace. If
tension requires adjustment, it may be obtained by loosening nut (Fig. 7 [2))
and turning screw (Fig. 7 [3)) clockwise until desired tension is achieved.
Holding screw (Fig. 7 [3)) stationary, tighten nut (Fig. 7 [2]) against motor
casing.
CARRIAGE - Check for free smooth operation of last slice device and for
smooth travel of carriage arm (Fig. 4 [2)). Check for excess backlash between
slide bearing (Fig. 4 [10)) and carriage slide bar (Fig. 4 [8]). The correct lash
(clearance) required for smooth carriage operation is obtained when a very
slight lash or movement can be detected. Too much lash can result in the
carriage striking and damaging the knife edge. Too little lash results in
binding and a loss of smoothness in carriage travel. Lash is adjusted by
loosening locknut (Fig. 4 [14]) and turning set screw (Fig. 4 [15)) clockwise
to reduce lash and counterclockwise to increase lash, Tighten locknut while
holding nylon tipped stud stationary with a screwdriver so it does not move.
Grease only the side of the carriage slide (Fig. 4 [8]) on which this set screw
slides. General guidelines: tighten screw until snug and then loosen 1/8 turn
and tighten locknut as described above
LUBRICATION & FUNCTION CHECK - General lubrication should be
performed in accordance with the lubrication instructions in Fig. 2. During
this lubrication sequence, be sure to check for free operation and movement of
related parts as well as for excessive wear and looseness of various parts. Be
sure to check all handles and knobs for tightness.
KNIFE - Check knife edge to see that it has been properly sharpened. If there
is any evidence of incorrect sharpening procedure, such as excessive honing,
alert owner and operator.
