CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
CLEANING SHARPENING STONES
Each time the sharpener is used, the sharpening stones should be examined for cleanliness.
Turn off the slicer, close the gauge plate, unplug power cord and open the sharpener cover. If
there is evidence of fatty or metallic build-up in the stones, they must be cleaned. Otherwise,
they will not have the abrasive quality necessary to sharpen. Clean as follows:
1. Remove the screw from the deburring stone and the 8mm nut from the sharpening stone.
2. Soak the stones in a solution of dish soap (i.e. Joy, Dawn, etc.) and water for one hour.
3. Scrub the stones with a stiff bristle brush (Berkel Part # 4975-9237).
4. Rinse thoroughly at a sink.
5. Shake excess water out and pat partially dry with paper toweling or a clean cloth towel.
Set aside to air dry.
6. Once the stones are dry (after 24 hours), oil the shafts with Berkel Food Machine Oil.
7. Reassemble.
Berkel recommends that a spare set of stones (Berkel Part #829-00408 - Sharpening stone and
829-00409 - Deburring stone) be kept available for thorough cleaning procedures, and in case of
breakage, so you will not lose your sharpening capabilities.
CLEANING & SANITIZING
1. Turn slicer OFF and unplug the power cord.
2. Turn the thickness control knob all the way to the right to close the gauge plate. Pull the product
table to its most forward, or home position. The product table must be in the home position
and the gauge plate closed before the product table can be removed.
CAUTION
Dirty Stones Cannot Sharpen!
IF THE SHARPENING STONES HAVE BECOME COATED WITH FOOD FATS
OR METALLIC BUILD-UP, THEY WILL NOT SHARPEN EFFECTIVELY.
