Cleaning

SHARP KNIFE BLADE

TO AVOID SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY TO

THE SLICER OPERATOR AND YOUR CUSTOMERS:

• BEFORE CLEANING, SHARPENING, SERVICING OR REMOVING ANY PARTS, always turn slicer off,

turn the slice thickness dial clockwise until it stops and unplug power cord.

• NEVER attempt to clean slicer with the knife running.

• NEVER attempt to remove the knife or knife ring guard from the slicer. They must remain on the slicer for

proper operation, sharpening and cleaning.

Once your slicer makes contact with food product, the entire slicer, including removable parts, must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized. This process is to be repeated at least every 4 hours using the procedures identified by your state and local health departments.

As with all food contact surfaces, it is extremely important to properly sanitize the entire slicer and to closely follow the instructions on your sanitizer container. Proper sanitation is essential to kill harmful bacteria.

NOTE : It may be desirable to wear non-cutting safety gloves during the cleaning operation.

IMPORTANT: Excessive amounts of sanitizer and use of products not formulated for stainless steel or aluminum may VOID your warranty. Do NOT exceed 200 ppm using a chlorinated sanitizer.

For more information on proper kitchen and equipment sanitiation visit www.servsafe.com prepared by the National Restaurant Association (NRA).

Optimal Slicing Performance

TO OBTAIN THE MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE AND YIELD

FROM YOUR GLOBE SLICER:

1. Read this entire manual before touching the slicer and strictly follow all instructions and precautions.

THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR SAFETY!

2. Lubricate the slicer per the instructions on pages 20 and 21.

3. Maintain a sharp knife and replace as necessary. Refer to the knife sharpening procedure on pages 16 through 18. Globe recommends replacing the knife at approximately 12” diameter. Never attempt to replace the knife yourself. Contact an authorized Globe service company to replace the knife.

4. Clean knife prior to sharpening slicer per the instructions on pages 13 through 16.

5. As the knife is sharpened and the diameter is reduced, it will be necessary to have: a. The table adjusted inward toward the knife in order to maintain a consistent 1/16” clearance between the table and knife.

b. The sharpener assembly adjusted lower to maintain proper alignment with the knife.

We recommend an authorized Globe service company perform all adjustments and preventive maintenance.

(See front cover for service contact information.)

By adequately maintaining your slicer, it will provide years of dependable service. The only way to damage a Globe slicer is by neglect.
