Weston 9" Meat Slicer - Manual (Page 5)

GROUNDING
This appliance must be grounded while in use to protect
the operator from electrical shock. The appliance
is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and a 3-prong
grounding type plug to fit the proper grounding-type
receptacle. The appliance has a plug that looks like
Figure A. An adaptor, Figure B, should be used for
connecting Figure A plugs to two-prong receptacles.
The grounding tab which extends from the adaptor must
be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly
grounded outlet box as shown in Figure C using a metal
screw.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong
grounding-type plugs and a 3-pole cord connector
that accepts the plug from the appliance. Use only
extension cords having an electrical rating not less than
the rating of the appliance. DO NOT use damaged
extension cords. Examine extension cord before using
and replace if damaged. DO NOT abuse extension
cord and do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep
cord away from heat and sharp edges.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
1. ALWAYS disconnect the appliance from the power source before cleaning.
2. Never immerse the Motor Assembly of this appliance in water or other liquid.
3. The Blade, Food Presser, and Food Tray can all be hand washed in hot soapy
water. Because these parts come in contact with food, they should be sanitized by
being dipped in a solution of 2 ounces (0.06 L) of unscented non-chlorine bleach
mixed with 5 gallons (19 L) of water. Allow sanitized parts to air dry. Do not use
harsh abrasives to clean any part of the Meat Slicer. Use extreme caution when
handling or cleaning the Blade, as it is extremely sharp! Do not leave Blade
underwater; trying to handle sharp objects in water can be hazardous. It is
highly recommended to wear cut-resistant Kevlar Gloves when removing,
cleaning and re-installing the Blade.
4. Set the Thickness Adjustment Knob to “0”.
5. Remove Food Presser and rotate the Sliding Food Carriage out of the way in
order to allow for easy access to the Blade.
6. To remove the Blade hold the Blade with one
hand and use a coin to unlock the Blade Locking
Screw by turning it clockwise Figure 6 . Carefully pull
the Blade off and hold it by using the hole in the
center of the Blade.
7. Clean the outer surface of the Meat Slicer Body
& Base with a damp cloth. Mild detergent or water
can be used to dampen the cloth. Wipe away from
the Blade, NEVER wipe toward the Blade. Never
immerse Motor Assembly in water or any other
liquid. Do not use steel wool, abrasive cleaners, or
sharp utensils to clean.
8. To allow for easier cleaning, the Thickness Adjustment Knob can be turned
past “0” to allow the Gauge Plate to slide back. NOTE: Use this feature only
with Blade removed. (After cleaning and before reassembly, reset the Thickness
Adjustment Knob to “0”.)
9. After cleaning and drying, install the Blade and Blade Screw to the Motor Assembly
in reverse order of step 6. Make sure the Blade Locking Screw is properly engaged
and tightened. Rotate the Sliding Food Carriage back to its proper position and re-
install the Food Presser.
