Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for safe and effective slicing with your CUSIMAX Meat Slicer.

1. Prepare Food:
   • For best results, chill meats and cheeses before slicing. This helps them hold their shape better.
   • Remove any bones, foil, or other non-food items from the item to be sliced.
   • Ensure the food item fits securely on the food carriage.
2. Adjust Thickness: Rotate the thickness adjustment knob to your desired slice thickness. The range is from 1mm (thin) to 20mm (thick).
   

   Figure 4: The thickness adjustment knob allows precise control over slice thickness, ranging from 0mm to 20mm, suitable for various food types like bread, meat, and cheese.

3. Position Food: Place the food item firmly against the food guide plate and secure it with the food pusher. Ensure your fingers are always behind the food pusher.
4. Turn On: Press the On/Off switch to start the motor.
5. Slice Food: Gently push the food carriage forward and backward, guiding the food item against the rotating blade. Apply even pressure with the food pusher.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your slicer. Always prioritize safety during cleaning.

2. Remove Components: Carefully remove the blade, food carriage, and food pusher. Refer to the "Setup" section for removal instructions if needed.
3. Clean Blade: Use a damp cloth and mild detergent to wipe the blade. Be extremely careful as the blade is very sharp. You may use a brush for hard-to-reach areas. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
