1.-MACHINE DESCRIPTION
The machine is a gravity slicer. This machine is used for cutting cold meat. Its main element is
a round knife (1), which turns around with rotation over its own axle. A motor supplies the
energy for this rotation by belt transmission.
2.-SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The machine is equipped with some safety devices in order to prevent hazards.
2.1.-ELECTRICAL DEVICES: (Models CE)
1. The push buttons (6-7) and the safety devices (A-B) are working on low tension.
2. When the power is restored after a power interruption or when an interlock switch is remade
the machine does not automatically start. It is necessary to restart the machine by pressing the
on switch (6).
3. The machine is grounded with green/yellow coloured wires which have the same section of
the wires with bigger section of the machine.
4. The electrical components situated inside the machine housing are protected according to IP33 and
the electrical components situated outside are according to IP65.
5. If the cover blade (2) is lift up, the machine cannot restart.
2.2.-MECHANICAL DEVICES:
1. A blade guard (17), with 2 mm. at least, protects the blade edge, at both sides back and front,
at the no cutting area.
2. ABS guard (9) with a bend (thumb guard), covers the blade edge at least 10mm, whenever
the carriage is at its most advanced position at the end of the cutting operation
3. There is a stainless steel guard (22) that avoids the hand to arrive in a frontal direction to the
blade edge. (Models CE)
4. It is only possible to tilt the carriage when the slice thickness regulator is in the zero position
and the carriage is in the backward position. (Models CE)

3.-INSTALLATION
3.1. INSTALLATION ON THE WORKPLACE
The slicer should be installed on a work surface that has sufficient
stability and strength to support the weight of the machine, and always
maintaining the appropriate height from the floor, as shown in the figure.
See section 10 for working area necessary.
900 mm.
CAUTION: The slicer is heavy. Two persons are required when lifting
or moving it. The machine must be hold by the points indicated at the
figure of section 10
3.2.-ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WARNING
1. Make sure that the line voltage of your main power source matches the rated voltage of
the machine shown at the rating plate (13).
2. Do not turn on the slicer if the cord or plug is damaged.
3. Always plug the machine to a grounded outlet.
4. The fuse in the outlet plug must have between 3 and 6 amperes.
5. The outlet plug should remain at a height from the floor in between 0,6 or 1,9 m., and should
remain at sight in a way to be seen by the user.
6. At three-phase models, if it is necessary a change of voltage, see section 13.
7. The machine must be connected to a leakage current breaker.
8. At three-phase models, it is necessary to check the sense of rotation as the correct one, so that
it should be the opposite sense as of the clock, as shown in the signals of the sharpener device
(11); if this is not correct, there should be a change made to the phases of the plug in order to
change the sense of rotation.
4.-OPERATION WARNING
1. Before removing the product from the carriage (3), the machine ought to be turned off and
the slice thickness regulator (5) in the zero position.
2. Always keep hands away from the blade zone and use the product pusher (10) or carriage
handle (18) when slicing the product.
3. To avoid accidents, NEVER touch the edge of the blade (1), and NEVER touch any part of
the blade if the blade is rotating.
4. Always leave the slice thickness dial (5) set at zero after using the machine.
5. Always keep hands, hair and clothing away from all moving parts.
6. Always turn off the machine when not in use.
7. Operating conditions: Temperature: 5-40ºC / Humidity: 30-95%.
The slicer will allow you to cut deli products, meat, sausage, etc. Do not slice frozen products,
bones and no comestible products. Before attempting the use of the machine, remove the
wrapped and sealed parts so that the edge of the blade will not get damaged.
4.1.-SLICING THE PRODUCT
1. Lift the product pusher (10) and place the product on the carriage (3) so that the face of the
product to slice is resting on the gauge plate (4).
B.I.S.A. -3-
2. Adjust the slice thickness turning the slice thickness regulator (5) from 0 to 25 mm.
3. Pressing the On switch (7), blade starts to rotate.
4. Push the carriage (3) forward and back over the blade with a continuous motion.
5. After slicing the desired amount of the product, press the Off switch (6) to stop the slicer.
Then, make sure to turn the slice thickness regulator (5) to “0” position.
5.-BLADE SHARPENING
WARNING: NEVER LIFT UP THE SHARPENER COVER IF THE MACHINE HAS
NOT BEEN DESCONNECTED OR UNPLUGGED BEFORE.
The sharpening quality of the blade will guarantee a much longer life of the blade, a perfect
cutting slice and this will avoid extra efforts for the motor. Before sharpening, make sure that
the blade is completely clean and grease free. The sharpening procedure should be performed at
least once a day to keep the cutting edge sharp and last longer.
WARNING: The blade has to be replaced when the gap between the edge and the blade guard
(17) exceeds 6 mm. Only qualified personnel should do the change of blade.
WARNING: Always turn off the machine before cleaning and make sure to turn the slice
thickness dial (5) to “0” position.
All the surfaces are very easy for cleaning from food waste and easy for removing the different
parts. Always use a damp cloth in detergent to clean the machine. Never use any chemical or
abrasive products.
6.1.-BLADE COVER DISASSEMBLY (2):
1. Unscrew the blade cover lock knob (14) placed in the back of the blade drive housing (19).
2. Grasp the blade cover (2) with both hands very carefully. Clean and dry the blade cover.
3. To reassemble, proceed inversely.

12.-TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
B.I.S.A. -6-
ATTENTION: Before plugging the machine verify the rating plate (13) because those
specifications could change for some countries due to special voltages.
Safety:
1. Fixed blade guard.
2. 24v. Low tension print plate, on/off switch, no voltage release system after a current cut and
hand protections Security device on carriage swinging and on blade guard. (CE models)
To change from 400v. to 230v. or from 230v. to 400v., these operations must be done:
1. Loosen the electric system cover (20), so that there is access to the motor as well as to the
electric system.
2. Change the voltage in the motor as well as in the plate 24v.:
a. In the motor exit, change the connector which indicates 400v. for the 230v. one or vice
versa depending on the wanted voltage. See detail A of the three-phase electric scheme (page
8).
b. In the 24v. print plate change the connector from 400v. to 230v. or vice versa depending
on the wanted voltage. See detail B of the three-phase electric scheme (page 8).
3.After verification of same voltage in the motor as in the print plate 24v, reinstall the electric system
cover (20) as in initial position, and place the machine on its 4 legs as the initial position.
VERY IMPORTANT: The motor and the electric plate must connected to the same
voltage.
After the change, the new voltage must appear instead of the old one in the characteristics plate
of the machine (13).
WARNING: In models without a print plate 24v, the procedure should be the same but omitting
the point 2b since there is not print plate.
