lightly with a few drops of acid-free light household oil such as
sewing machine oil (Fig. 6).
Stainless steel blade
To remove the cutting blade, insert a coin in the slot of the blade
fastening screw (11) and turn the screw clockwise until the blade
retaining screw is fully removed (Fig. 7). Carefully lift the blade
off. Do not touch the blade edge. Clean the cutting blade and the
motor housing behind it with a clean damp cloth. To sanitize the
blade transfer it carefully to a sink and scrub with a brush and
antibacterial soap or equivalent. Lubricate the blade support posts
and the drive gear shown in Figure 8 with Vaseline. To replace,
carefully align the blade on its hub so the blade and drive gears
fully engage. Turn blade fastening screw counterclockwise to
tighten. (Do not over-tighten). CAREFUL! SHARP BLADE!
Thickness guide plate
You can, if you wish, remove the thickness guide plate(2)
for cleaning.
NOTE: To reduce the risk of injury, always remove the blade
before removing the thickness guide plate.
To remove the thickness guide plate, turn the thickness control
knob counterclockwise, past “0” to the “PLATE RELEASE” position.
Pull the thickness guide plate off the slice (Fig. 9). After cleaning
this plate, lightly lubricate the two steel rods with Vaseline.
To reattach the thickness guide plate, insert the two steel rods
into the holes provided on the carriage track. Make sure the
thickness control knob is aligned with the “PLATE RELEASE”
position. Now push the guide plate fully into its position and turn
the knob counterclockwise to the “0” position.

Clean with grease-removing cleaner, mild detergent in water
or alcohol.
Slice deflector
The Model 609 is equipped with a detachable slice deflector (item #9, see page 4) to ensure smooth
deflection of each slice onto the tray. This can be removed for cleaning. Always first remove the slicer
blade and thickness control plate as shown in Figures 8 and 9. Grasp the blade deflector with thumb and
forefinger and pull it out. It should snap out easily. Always reinstall before installing the blade or thickness
control plate.
