6.When using the adjustable slicer plate, make sure it is
cleaned frequently to assure easy thickness adjustment.
Occasionally disassemble the slicer plate for a thorough
cleaning. To do this it is necessary to unscrew the
knurled thrust bearing, which has a left hand thread, to
release the spring. Withdraw the knife and shaft assem-
bly. Unscrew the adjusting nut from the plate. Use a drop
of approved food machinery oil on the shaft and adjust-
ment threads after cleaning.
KNIFE SHARPENING
Occasional touching up along the edges of the knife with a honing stone will keep cutting operations at peak performance.
PUSHER PLATE STOP
Frequently check that the pusher plate does not hit the grater plate holder or knife shaft assembly. The Pusher Plate Stop
XP1018 can be adjusted to avoid touching the internal moving parts. With proper care and maintenance, your Vegetable
Grater/Shredder/Slicer Attachment will provide you with many years of performance.

CAUTION: Do not permit water or moisture to remain on or in the hub, shaft, or the rear opening in the hous-
ing. This condition will result in rusting which will eventually destroy the rear end components and shaft and
void the factory warranty.
Note: After cleaning, to prevent damage the thrust bearing must be tightened until sealed against shoulder on shaft.
Failure to properly reassemble can result in damage to knives, shaft and slicer plate. Do not clean any of these compo-
nents in a dishwasher with strong detergents or chemicals. Use a USDA approved grease on the shaft for best operation.
