Automatic Slicer with Portion Scale
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
The model 2912PS Automatic Slicer with Portion Scale can display the weight or slice count as the
sliced product falls to the platter. Six preset values can be programmed for lb weigh, oz weigh, and
slice count, which are readily accessible for portioning. Other values can be manually preset before
beginning an automatic cycle. The scale display can Tare to indicate Net weight but is
NOT LEGAL FOR
TRADE
. An automatic cycle stops slicing when the preset value is satisfied (by net weight or slice count).
The model 2912PS is equipped with a
1
⁄2 HP motor and is available for single-phase electrical service.
The slicer features the exclusive Hobart Stay-Sharp contoured cast solid stainless steel knife. The
slicer is furnished with a cord and plug as standard equipment. The 2912PS slicer features automatic
slicing with six adjustable speeds. Other features and options include:
The Power Interrupt feature, standard, requires the slicer to be manually re-started after a power
interruption.
The Gauge Plate and Carriage Interlock feature, standard, prevents the Carriage Tray from being
removed unless the Carriage is in the H
OME position (pulled all the way to the front) and the Gauge
Plate is C
LOSED. When the Carriage Tray is tilted horizontally, the slicer will turn OFF if it has not
previously been turned O
FF. Once the Carriage Tray is tilted horizontally or removed, the slicer cannot
be started and the Gauge Plate cannot be opened until the Carriage Tray is returned to its normal
operating position.
The HomeStart feature, standard, requires the carriage to be in the H
OME position before the slicer
can be started.
The AutoShutoff feature, provided on all 2912PS slicers, is turned off at the factory but can be enabled
or disabled by pressing the down arrow key while pulling the switch knob all the way forward with the
lever on manual. If AutoShutoff is enabled, the slicer will turn off if a keystroke or full stroke of the
carriage has not been made within a 10 second interval while in Manual mode.
A tubular food chute, and a 4" leg set are available accessories for 2912PS. The low carriage fence
is standard on 2912PS. A high carriage fence is an accessory used with front mounted meat grips. The
standard meat grip is front-mounted. Heavy front-mounted meat grip is an available accessory.
In Automatic Mode, the operator selects
WEIGH (by LB or OZ units) or COUNT mode and a PRESET value.
As each slice is made, the remaining slice count or actual weight displays. The slicer stops when the
PRESET value is met. The weight or count setting is retained in memory for repeat applications or can
be reset. If a
PRESET value was not selected, the slicer begins at zero, displays the actual weight or
slice count, and slices continuously until stopped by the operator.
When all Automatic Mode requirements are met, you can press the Slice / Pause button to either start
or resume automatic slicing or to stop slicing and return to the Home position. Refer to pages 6 – 9
for details.
