6.3. CLEANING THE SLICING MACHINE

6.3.1. GENERAL POINTS

The machine should be carefully cleaned after each use. After a relatively long period of inactivity,
it should be cleaned before each use too.
For these blade cleaning operations, which are particularly specific and which may result in serious
slicing risks, it is essential to wear cut resistant gloves. It is also preferable to replace the protective
blade ring in a closed position (1).
With a soft damp cloth placed on the blade, rub from in to out to remove any residue of grease and
matter. Repeat this operation on both sides of the blade.
N.B: SLICING RISKS. USE CUT AND TEAR RESISTANT PROTECTIVE GLOVES AND PERFORM
THE OPERATIONS WITH GREAT CARE.
- Remove the product recovery container;
- Loosen and then remove the knob (2) and lift the upper sliding plate (3) with the corresponding
product press arm;
Clean all dismantled parts, the body of the machine etc. using only warm water and a soft cloth, a
spongy fabric or even a nylon brush to clean the parts of the tray and the product press.
Wipe all parts again with a soft cloth.
N.B: DO NOT CLEAN THE MACHINE WITH A WATER PUMP OR STEAM
OR OTHER SIMILAR METHODS.

7. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR

7.1. GENERAL POINTS
Sharpening the blade: regular; the frequency and duration of the sharpening obviously depend on
the use of the device (working time and type of product being sliced).
Maintenance operations to be exclusively assigned to authorised staff by the manufacturer are
as follows:
• Replacing the blade.
• Replacing the grinding wheel of the sharpener.
• Replacing the chain;
• Repair of parts by which the structure is concerned, repair and/or replacement of
components above the base.

7.2. SHARPENING THE BLADE

Before the sharpening operation, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the blade so as not to taint the
grinding stones with grease. Follow these instructions if the slicing capacity falls:
N.B: SLICING RISKS. USE CUT AND TEAR RESISTANT PROTECTIVE GLOVES AND PERFORM
THE OPERATIONS WITH GREAT CARE.
• Loosen the sharpening blocking knob (1).
• Lift the sharpener and turn it 180° (2).
• Carefully lower the sharpener, the bade will automatically lodge between the two grinding
wheels.
• Tighten the knob (3).
• Turn the wheel and at the same time press on the button (4) for about 10-15 seconds.
• Interrupt the rotation and monitor whether a slight rough edge is effectively formed on the
blade tip.
• Turn back the wheel and at the same time press for about 5 seconds on two push buttons (5 and 4).
• Return the sharpener to its original position.
• Repeat the blade cleaning operation.
NOTE: Do not press excessively (more than 2-3 seconds) during deburring so that the blade
tip is not adversely affected.
