Q: How to sharpen the blade of the slicer?

Your Berkel Pro Line XS25 is equipped with a built-in sharpening system that makes the operation simple and straightforward. Sharpening depends on your usage intensity: the more you slice, the more often you will sharpen. To sharpen the 250 mm blade: Set the thickness adjustment knob to the safety position (position 0) . Fully retract the food tray to the stop. Lift the cover of the sharpening device. Press the start button to turn on the blade. Press the sharpening button for 10 to 15 seconds . Then press the deburring button for 3 to 5 seconds (this step removes micro-burrs). Stop the blade by pressing the stop button. Return the sharpening device to its initial position and lower the protective cover. Proceed to clean the slicer. Between sharpenings, maintain your machine by cleaning it daily with warm water and a biodegradable detergent. Lubricate the sliding guides every 3 months with acid-free oil (mineral vaseline) to maintain optimal cutting. Important: If the distance between the edge of the blade and the protective ring exceeds 6 mm due to natural wear, the blade must be replaced. For this operation, contact Berkel support or an authorized dealer (service@berkelinternational.com).
