Care and Cleaning

NOTE: Never immerse the motor assembly of the meat
slicer in water or other liquid.
1. Unplug.
2. The blade, blade protector, food pusher, and food tray can be
washed in hot, soapy water. Rinse; then dry. Do not use metal
scouring pads or abrasive cleansers. Use extreme caution when
handling or cleaning the blade, since it is extremely sharp. Do
not leave blade underwater; trying to handle sharp objects
in water can be hazardous. It is highly recommended to wear
cut-resistant Kevlar gloves when removing, cleaning, and
reinstalling the blade.
3. Rotate the thickness adjustment knob all the way to the "–"
position.
4. Remove the food pusher and rotate the sliding food carriage
out of the way in order to allow for easy access to the blade.
5. To remove the blade, hold the blade with one hand and use a
coin or small flathead screwdriver to unlock the blade-locking
screw by gently turning it clockwise.
6. Carefully pull off the blade and hold it by using the hole in the
center of the blade.
7. Gently remove the blade protector. If too much pressure is
applied to either end, you may risk breaking the protector.
8. Clean the outer surface of the meat slicer body/motor with a
damp cloth. Mild detergent or water can be used to dampen
the cloth. Wipe away from the blade; NEVER wipe toward
the blade. Do not use steel wool, abrasive cleaners, or sharp
utensils to clean.
9. After cleaning and drying, reinstall the blade protector,
blade, and blade screw to the body/motor.
