Memory Function

The machine memory will keep track of the number of pieces cut since it was turned on, up to 9999 pieces.

This number will be reset to 0000 when the machine is turned off and turned back on unless a number has been stored in memory.

Press the SELECT BUTTON and release before three seconds pass. The number shown will be the number of pieces cut since the machine was turned on.

13

Press the S1 BUTTON to store the total into the machine memory. The number will flash on and off three times and will now be stored. When the machine is turned on the count will start from that number. To keep a running count up to 9999 the new total must be stored before the machine is turned off.
