Prior to first use

CAUTION!

Danger of injury!

The very sharp blade can cause injuries.

• Proceed with caution when wiping the blade.

Basic cleaning

Prior to first use, the blade of the unit must be wiped off using a moist cloth in order to remove any possible production residue. See chapter "Cleaning and maintenance".

Initial operation and use

WARNING!

Danger of injury!

The very sharp blade can cut off body parts. Your fingers and thumbs especially are at risk.

• Never reach into the space between the stop plate and blade as long as the stop plate is not completely closed, i.e. set to ▪below "O").
• Do not touch the blade with your fingers.

Child protection

To secure the blade (stop plate must be closed, i.e. positioned below "O"), push the slide in front of the blade and press the slide latch in. The slide is secured. To enable the child-proof safety catch, the adjustment knob must be turned clockwise past the zero setting up to the limit. Now push the safety slide to the outside as far as possible. The adjustment knob and on/off switch are not blocked.

Using the MiniSlice-attachment "2 in one" as food holder

NOTE!

Please also refer to the operating instructions of the MiniSlice-attachment "2 in one".

This unit must be used with slide and MiniSlice-attachment "2 in one" in normal operating condition, unless the size and shape of the slicing material do not permit their use.

1. Insert the plug into the socket.
2. Place the slicing material on to the slide.
3. Place the MiniSlice-attachment "2 in one" on the rear wall of the slide at the slicing material. The locking lever should be open. Observe the corresponding lock symbols.
4. Set the requested cutting thickness.
5. Place the tray under the unit.
6. Press the slicing material lightly against the stop.
7. Either hold down the momentary switch or press the momentary the momentary switch and slide it down to switch to continuous operation operation.
8. Evenly move the slide towards the blade.
9. When you have finished cutting, either release the moment switch or push it back up or push the switch back up.
10. Close the stop.

TIP

• Soft slicing material (such as cheese or ham) can be cut best when chilled.
• Soft slicing material can be cut better when moved forward slowly.

After a continuous operation of 10 minutes, let the motor cool down for an hour.

MiniSlice-attachment "2 in one"

• Put the MiniSlice-attachment "2 in one" on the slide back wall. Note the corresponding lock symbols.
• Turn the locking lever firmly.
• Put the slicing material, e.g. cucumber, carrots, mushrooms, cocktail tomatoes etc., into the filling shaft.
• If necessary, place the insert (optional accessory) in the feed chute. It slides down automatically. Do not press.
• Set the requested cutting thickness.
• Place a tray under the knife.
• Switch on the continuous switch or use the intermittent switch.
  • Evenly move the slide towards the blade.
• When you have finished cutting, release the MiniSlice-attachment "2 in one".
• After use, clean the MiniSlice-attachment "2 in one". Frequent cleaning in the dishwasher can lead to discolouration. Cleaning under running water by hand is recommended.

Tilting by 30 deg

The tilting function is especially useful for cutting bread, hard-cured sausage and vegetables. By means of the tilting function, the natural gravity force of the product to be cut is used for feeding.

Proceed as follows to tilt the unit:

1. Press the lock knob The unit is unlocked.
2. Use the swivelling lever to pull the unit up forcefully until it locks in audibly.
3. When the unit has been locked in audibly, it is secured.
4. Now proceed as described under "Using the MiniSlice attachment "2 in one" as a remnant holder".
5. When the cutting process is finished, turn the unit back.
6. Turn the swivelling lever down.
7. Press the rear part of the profile to lock the locking bolt.

Cleaning and maintenance

WARNING!

Danger of injury!

Inexpert cleaning may lead to injuries.

• Switch the unit off before cleaning and pull the power cord from the electric socket.
• Let the unit cool down before cleaning.
• Check whether the stop has been closed (the blade edge must be covered).
  • Proceed with caution when wiping the blade.

Cleaning the cutter on the outside

Use a soft and moist cloth to clean the outer surfaces of the unit. Use a mild detergent in case of heavy soiling.

NOTE!

Risk of damage!

Improper handling of the cutter can lead to damages of the unit.

• Do not use any aggressive or abrasive detergents and no solvents.
• Do not scratch off stubborn soiling with hard objects.
• Do not immerse the unit in water.
• Do not put the unit in the dishwasher and do not use it under running water.
• Never put the slide into the dishwasher.
• Never put the blade into the dishwasher which may affect the sharpness and the corrosion resistance (salt attacks the blade). Handling the blade when loading and unloading from the dishwasher is another danger point.

Removal and cleaning of the slide

In order to clean the slide better, it can be removed from the unit.

1. Pull out the slide latch.
2. Remove the slide.
3. Use a moist cloth or running water to clean all parts.
4. Once a month, add some drops of resin-free oil or petroleum jelly to the slide-way.
5. Use a soft cotton wool cloth to remove excessive oil / petroleum jelly.
6. After completion of the cleaning process, put the slide back onto the guiding profile and press the slide latch in such a way that it fits flush with the side of the slide.

Removal and cleaning of the blade

1. Remove the plug from the socket.
2. Pull the slide latch outward.
3. Remove the slide.
4. Loosen the blade cover plate by turning it 45^ in the direction of the arrow.
5. Turn the blade closure to the right and carefully remove the blade.
6. Clean the inside of the blade using a damp cloth.
7. Remove the black wiper ring from the unit.
8. Clean the wiper ring using a damp cloth.
9. Clean the inside of the unit using a damp cloth.
10. Insert the blade back again in reverse order.

Ensure value preservation of the blade

For long-lasting sharpness and value retention of your Graef blade, were recommend to clean it in regular intervals, especially after cutting up salted meat and/or ham.

These foodstuffs contain salts, when they stay on the surface of the blade for a longer period of time, may even form a rust film (even on "stainless" steel).

When cutting up slicing material which contains a lot of water, such as tomatoes or cucumbers, lacking or wrong (too "wet") cleaning may also lead to a rust film on the blade surface. For this reason we recommend to use a moist cloth, and if necessary some washing-up liquid, to clean the blade directly after use.

From time to time, unscrew the blade and clean the unit on the inside. Especially, when "juicy" slicing material (vegetables, fruit, roasts, et cetera) have been cut. Treat the blade with the upmost of care.

Greasing the unit on the inside

Regular greasing will increase the service life of your unit. For this purpose, exclusively use Graef petroleum jelly which is matched to our units. You can obtain them in our online shop at www.graef.de under item No. 141842.

Regularly grease the unit:

• In case of frequent use, every two to three days.
- When the unit runs for 10 minutes every day, every fortnight.

When greasing the blade, proceed with utmost care as follows:

Remove the blade.

1. Grease the gearwheel with petroleum jelly.
2. Grease the blade bolt with petroleum jelly.

3. Also grease the blade screw with petroleum jelly.

4. Place the wiper ring in the unit again and grease it using petroleum jelly.

5. Place the blade back in again.

After-sales service

If your unit is defective, please contact your specialist dealer or the Graef customer service on [phone] or write an e-mail to [e-mail]
