Using the Berkel 829E - PLUS meat and cheese slicer is easy. First, make sure it's properly plugged into a grounded outlet using the provided 6 - foot cord and 5 - 15P plug.

Adjust the slice thickness according to your needs, up to 16 mm. The slicer can handle products up to 11 inches wide, 8.5 inches high, or 8.5 inches in diameter. When it comes to maintenance, the slicer is a dream. It's made of stainless steel and sanitary anodized aluminum, so it's easy to keep clean.

Just follow the instructions for using the sharpener to maintain a consistent knife edge. Some important notes: Always keep your hands away from the knife when the slicer is running. Make sure the product is properly secured on the table to avoid accidents. Also, since it's a manual slicer, use it at a steady pace.
