To avoid serious personal injury, properly
install slicer in adequate work area
• ALWAYS use a qualified technician for installation.

INSTALLATION
UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY
1. When the slicer has been unpacked and removed from its shipping carton, it should be checked
carefully for any damage that may have occurred during shipment. Do not plug in the power cord
or attempt to operate the slicer prior to this examination.
2. Carefully check all slicer components such as the product table, pusher, sharpener, thickness
control knob, etc., to make certain they move freely and that there are no obstructions. Turn the
thickness control knob as far right as possible. Lubricate the pusher slide bar (on the product
table) and the round rails (underside of slicer) with Berkel Food Machine Oil. The oil ports for
both rails can be located by referring to the diagram on page 4.
TESTING PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Make sure that the ON/OFF switch is rotated to the "O" position on the 829A slicer, and the
thickness control knob is turned as far to the right as possible. This positions the gauge plate so
the knife is not exposed during testing. If it is an 839A slicer, make sure the manual/automatic
knob is fully counterclockwise in the manual position.
2. Plug the power cord into a grounded 120V AC electrical outlet.
