The Univex 4612 manual slicer can endure heavy use with its anodized aluminum construction if it is run a maximum time of 2 hours per day to slice small amounts of cheese. Ranging from 0 to 0.5 inch, the unit's manual knob can adjust the thickness of meat slices. To protect users from the 12-inch-diameter blade, a protective edge guard is built in. Liquids are directed away from the controls by a drip tray fence, and a sharpener is built into the slicer for quick blade maintenance.Product DetailsMaximum run time: 2 hrs. per dayCan slice small amounts of cheeseDrip tray fence directs juice towards the base and away from the controlsSlice thickness can be adjusted from 0 to 0.5 in.Sharpener is removable for cleanupCarriage and feed grip can be disassembled for cleaningAnodized aluminum is heavy duty for daily useProtective edge guard prevents hands from getting close to the bladeManual knob changes slice thicknessOn/off push buttonBelt-driven drive assembly12-in.-dia. bladecETLus listed; NSF certifiedDimensions & Utilities22.25 in.
