Knife not sharpening
1. Are sharpening procedures being followed exactly as explained in this manual (page 10).
2. Are sharpening stones clean? If not, clean according to instructions given in “Sharpener
Maintenance” section (page 7).
3. Is the knife clean? If coated with food fats, sharpener stones cannot sharpen. Clean per
instructions (page 9).
4. Are sharpening stones making solid contact with the knife? If not, have your Berkel
serviceman adjust them.
5. Are sharpening stones severely worn and not making contact with the knife? Are the
sharpening stones cracked or chipped? If so, have your Berkel serviceman replace and
adjust the new stones to the proper position for best sharpening results.
Electrical failure
1. Is slicer fully plugged into a properly grounded 115V AC outlet? If properly connected, the
white power ON light should be illuminated when the slicer is on.
2. Inspect power cord. Has it been damaged, cutting off electrical flow? If so, call your
Berkel serviceman to replace the power cord.
3. Are you getting electricity from the wall outlet? Check by plugging in another piece of equipment
with the same electrical requirements. Also, check circuit breaker or fuse.
4. If you are getting electrical power and your slicer is still not operating, contact your Berkel
serviceman.
Thickness control knob not operating gauge plate
1. If the thickness control knob is not opening and closing the gauge plate properly, it is a sign
that the internal mechanism has suffered some loss of adjustment. Do not try to adjust the
mechanism yourself. Call your Berkel Serviceman.
If correction of any of the above conditions does not result in a functional slicer, call your Designated
Berkel Service Location.
