Warning:
The Univex Slicing Machine is shipped from the factory in a foam filled corrugated cardboard container.
Remove all staples from the top of the container flaps. Open flaps and make sure all staples have been completely
removed so as not to scratch you or the slicer. Then remove upper foamed insert. Carefully remove the slicer from the
container with the assistance of a second person. For SAFETY do not lift from either the knife sharpener or from
anywhere near the knife or its housing. Lift slicer by handling the base.
INSPECTION
All Univex slicers are inspected and tested at the factory; however, they should be reinspected carefully by the person
making the installation for loose, damaged or broken parts. Detached parts and fixtures should be checked against
packing list to determine all are present. Any damages should be reported to the Carrier immediately, and any shortage
of parts or fixtures to Univex Corporation.
Warning:
After slicer has been inspected, wash slicer completely with warm water and mild soap For SAFETY, follow
the cleaning instructions on Page 7
INSTALLATION
The most efficient installation of your Univex slicer will depend upon the layout of your kitchen. Locate your slicer
where it will save steps for the operator and be sure to provide sufficient clearance around it for ease of maintenance
and cleaning, as well as for efficient and safe use.
Slicer should be operated on a sturdy bench or table with the height determined to suit the operator. It is most important
that the forearm of the operator be at the proper level for ease and safety of operation, as well as for maximum
production. This height is considered optimum when the carriage handle (Fig. 1 [6]) of the slicer is at approximately the
height of the operator's elbow when standing.
IMPORTANT
Warning/Caution:
Electrical wiring instructions are found in the wiring diagram (Fig. 6 & 6A). Before making
electrical connections, CHECK the specifications on the nameplate to make sure that they agree with those on your
electrical service. A grounding type three terminal plug is provided for safety. If you do not have a mating receptacle,
have a qualified electrician provide one with grounding provisions in accordance with local safety codes.
