Unpacking and Installation

Note: Immediately after unpacking, check the slicer for shipping damage. If the equipment is

found to be damaged, save everything! Notify the carrier within 5 days of delivery.

1. Carefully remove the cardboard carton from around the slicer.

2. Slide the product table off the gauge plate. It is in the cardboard box on the gauge plate.

3. Get assistance from another individual and place the slicer on a solid, level surface that is free of

any obstructions.

4. Make sure to unpack the sharpener, fence and brush. They are located in pockets in the cardboard

base.

5. Slide the product table onto the support arm and secure using the red product table locking knob.

WARNING

To eliminate a potential shock hazard, a properly grounded outlet using the three-pronged plug

provided must power this unit. Before plugging the slicer in, check your outlet voltage to be sure it

complies with the voltage speciﬁ ed on the serial number plate on the slicer.

Note: The model/serial number plate is located on the back of the slicer.

6 • X13E-PLUS & X13AE-PLUS OWNER/OPERATOR MANUAL

Operation

General

1. Check to see that the center plate and product table are in place on the slicer and the gauge plate is

completely closed. The holes in the bottom of the center plate ﬁ t over the bottom mounting studs in

the ring guard and the center plate locking knob is at the top of the center plate. The product table

slides completely onto the support arm and is secured with the red product table locking knob.

2. If the slicer is an automatic, then make sure the automatic engage knob on the right side of the table

support arm is pushed in, towards the left.

3. Plug the slicer in. The pilot light, between the start and stop buttons will illuminate.

4. Push the green ON button and the slicer blade will start to turn. Press the red STOP button to stop

the knife.

Automatic Operation

5. If you have an automatic slicer, with the slicer stopped, pull the automatic engage knob fully out on

the right side of the machine. This will put the slicer in the automatic mode.

6. Push the speed selection button to change the speed:

One illuminated LED indicates 20 slicers per minute (slow speed)

Two illuminated LED’s indicates 40 slices per minute (medium speed)

Three illuminated LED’s indicates 60 slices per minute (high speed)

7. Pushing the stroke length selection button changes the length of the stroke. This allows smaller

products to be sliced quicker, without the table moving any faster. Make sure the stroke length is

longer than the width of the product.

One illuminated LED indicates 1/3 of the total possible stroke length

Two illuminated LED’s indicates 2/3 total possible stroke length

Three illuminated LED’s indicates full stroke length

8. Press the green START button and the product table will slowly come to its forward position to ﬁ nd

its home position. Once it gets back to the home position, then it will start to go back and forth at

the preset speed and stroke length.

9. Push the red STOP button and the table will complete its stroke and stop in the home position.

10. As long as the slicer remains in the automatic mode it will remember its home position and always

start right up when the green START button is pushed. It will always start slow and gradually build

up to its full speed. This is the “soft start” feature.

11. Each time you take the slicer out of the automatic mode, and then back into the automatic mode, it

will always ﬁ nd its home position before it starts to run (as indicated in step #8).

12. Each time you activate the slicer into automatic mode, the last speed and stroke length settings will

be remembered until power is disrupted from the slicer (i.e. disconnecting the power cord from

the outlet). Once power is reconnected to the slicer, the default for automatic is slow speed and full

stroke length.

Cleaning and Sanitizing

The following cleaning procedures have been prepared with the grateful

cooperation of Kay Chemical, an Ecolab company.

Frequency:

The slicer shall be cleaned and sanitized at intervals to comply with national, state and/or local health codes.

Supplies:

Dish Detergent such as KAY

Pot & Pan Detergent

Sanitizer such as KAYQUAT

Nonabrasive Pad

Nylon Brush

Cut-Resistant gloves

Cloth wipes

Note: Sanitizer concentration shall comply with Section 4-501.114, Manual and Mechanical Warewashing

Equipment, Chemical Sanitization – Temperature, pH, Concentration, and Hardness of the FDA Food Code. If a

chemical sanitizer other than chlorine, iodine, or quaternary ammonium is used, it shall be applied in accordance

with the EPA-registered label use instructions.

Procedure:

CAUTION: Use extreme care when cleaning blade.

1. Close the slicer thickness control knob.

2. Turn the slicer off and unplug power cord from the wall outlet.

3. Pull the product table to the front of the slicer. If it is an automatic slicer, make sure the engagement

knob is in the manual position before pulling the product table to the front of the slicer.

4. Unscrew the red handle from the pusher and remove the pusher from the pusher arm. Unscrew and

remove the pusher arm slide rod from the product table. Loosen the product table locking knob and

remove the table. The product table cannot be removed unless it is fully forward and the thickness

5. Remove the center plate by lifting the center plate locking knob at the top of the center plate and lift

from the slicer.

6. Pre-scrape food from removable product table and center plate.

7. Wash center plate, product table, red handle, pusher, pusher arm, and slide rod in hot detergent solution.

The sharpener can be submerged in the hot detergent solution for cleaning.

8. Rinse the center plate, product table, red handle, pusher, pusher arm, slide rod, and sharpener in fresh,

hot, potable water.

9. Submerge the center plate, product table, red handle, pusher, pusher arm, slide rod, and sharpener in

8 • X13E-PLUS & X13AE-PLUS OWNER/OPERATOR MANUAL

10. Put on cut resistant gloves. Pre-scrape food from slicer.

11. Using fresh detergent solution, clean the front side of the knife with a non-abrasive pad, nylon brush,

and/or cloth wipes. Always wipe from the center of the knife to the outer edge.

12. Clean the backside of the knife with the fresh detergent solution, non-abrasive pad, nylon brush, and/or

cloth wipes.

13. Fold a cloth wipe that has been submerged in fresh detergent solution and work it between the ring

guard and knife, starting at the base of the ring guard. Carefully work the cloth around the knife,

cleaning the edge of the knife, edge of the ring guard and edge of the gauge plate. Use extreme cau-

tion.

14. Clean the rest of the slicer base and other components with the fresh detergent solution and a non-

abrasive pad.

15. Lift up the front of the slicer about 6 inches. A spring loaded kick stand will drop down to the table

surface and hold the front of the slicer up. This will allow you to pre-scrape food and clean the table

surface under the slicer with fresh detergent solution.

16. Using a fresh cloth wipe, rinse slicer and area under slicer with fresh hot potable water.

17. Spray slicer and area under slicer with fresh sanitizer solution from a sanitizer spray bottle and allow to

air dry. Remove cut-resistant gloves.

18. Once the table surface under the slicer has been washed, rinsed and sanitized, lift the front edge of the

slicer and push the kick stand back under the slicer. Slowly lower the slicer back to the table.

19. Slide the pusher arm onto the slide rod and reassemble the pusher to the pusher arm using the red

handle. Reassemble the slide rod to the product table. Reinstall the center plate and the product table to

the slicer. After assembly, spray with sanitizer solution and allow to air dry.

20. Plug in slicer. Place sharpener in proper storage location.

Gasket Inspection:

The recommended interval between inspections shall not exceed six months.

The inspection must be made by the manufacture or an authorized service agent.

WARNING

The slicer must be removed from service until repaired by the manufacture or an authorized service

agent if any gasket or seal is found to be damaged or missing.

Sharpening

Sharpen only when necessary. Too frequent or prolonged sharpening will pre-

maturely wear the knife and/or stones. The knife should be sharpened when you

notice wavy slices or excessive scrap. Only sharpen the knife after it has been

cleaned. You cannot effectively sharpen a dirty knife.

1. If it is an automatic slicer, make sure the engagement knob is in the manual

position, by pushing in (to the left) the knob on the right side of the support

arm.

2. Make sure the product table is pulled all the way to the front of the slicer and

the thickness control knob is completely closed.

3. Place the top tab of the sharpener into the slot of the product table. Clip the

bottom clip of the sharpener over the end of the product table.

4. Open the thickness control knob as far as it will go, fully exposing the knife.

5. Turn the slicer on and gently push the product table towards the knife just as

if you were slicing product. Once both the sharpening and deburring stones

make contact with the knife, remain there for 2-3 seconds and then pull the

product table back to the home position.

6. Turn off the slicer and close the thickness control knob.

7. Unclip the sharpener from the product table using the bottom clip. It can be

cleaned in the sink and then stored in a drawer.

8. After sharpening, clean and sanitize the slicer as outlined on page 8.

Troubleshooting

Electrical Failure

1. Is the pilot light illuminated? If not:

• Is the power cord completely plugged into the wall outlet?

• Check the power cord for cuts or breaks.

• Are you getting electricity from the wall outlet? Check by plugging in another piece of equipment

with the same electrical requirements.

2. Is the pilot light illuminated but blinking? If so, then push the stop button and then the start button. If the

light is still blinking,

then contact your nearest Hobart Service location or Designated Berkel Service

location. If you do not know your nearest Hobart Service location or your nearest Designated Berkel

Service Location, then see page 10 for details on whom to contact.

3. If the correction of any of the above conditions does not result in a functional slicer, call Hobart Service or

your Designated Berkel Service Location.

Product table doesn’t move freely

1. Check to make sure the slicer is not in the automatic mode.

Note: The mechanism in the undercarriage should not be oiled or greased.

Pusher is not sliding easily on the rod

1. Check that the rod is clean and apply Berkel oil to the rod.

Knife not sharpening

1. Are sharpening procedures being followed exactly as shown in this manual?

2. Are sharpening stones clean? If not, then remove them from the assembly and clean them thoroughly with

water and a stiff bristled brush. They are left hand threaded nuts.

3. Are sharpening stones worn and not making contact with the knife? If so, then replace them.

4. Is the knife clean? If coated with food fats, the sharpening stones won’t sharpen the knife. Clean the knife

and stones.
