MACHINEOPERATIONS

This section covers the initial running of your first product. This machine will usually arrive completely adjusted to your specifications with your product in mind. If you need to make any adjustments please refer to the "Setup and Adjustment" section located on page 14. If you need further assistance please contact your local FOODTOOLS representative.

Machine LocationThis equipment should be located on a flat level surface with the casters locked to unsure safe operation.

Electrical ConnectionThe electrical power cord is located in the bottom plate of the machines electrical box, (SEE IMAGE BELOW). All machines shipped in the U.S. will be supplied with a 110 or 220 VAC plug. Those that ship internationally will ship with the wire bare. It is the receiving facilities duty to supply a plug that meets or exceeds there parent countries electrical codes.

Main Power SwitchThe Main Power Switch is located on the lower section of the main electrical access door. This switch when on activates the machine and will supply power to the internal controllers and motors.

MAIN POWER PART# SWI-28


Conveyor Speed ControlLocated on the electrical enclosure front panel below the Cycle Start Button is the conveyor speed control adjustment knob. This controls how fast the conveyor carries the product through the slabber blade(s). The numbers around the knob indicate the speed of the belt in approximate inches per second.Setting the conveyor speed will depend on the type, density and temperature of the product being sliced. It is a good idea to start out slicing a product at a slow conveyor speed, and gradually increase the speed. If you notice that the product is slipping on the conveyor belt when it contacts the slicing blade, the conveyor is probably set too fast, or the product is too cold. If the product is too cold, allow it to warm for a short time before slicing.

Blade Motor ControlsEach Blade Motor consists of two controls, On/Off and speed. The Blade Motor controls are located to the right of the cycle start button. On top you have the On/Off control which controls the supplied power to the motor. Just below the On/Off switch is the variable position speed control. The speed control allows the selection of low to high blade speeds and everything in between. This is due to the variable resistance switch installed. From left to right the controls are labeled head one through three, with head one being the closest to the electrical box.

NOTE: IF THE ON/OFF SWITCH FOR THE BLADE MOTOR IS LEFT IN THE ON POSITION WHEN THE CYCLE START BUTTON IS PRESSED THE BLADES WILL BEGIN SLICING.

BLADE MOTOR CONTROLS

ON SYSTEMS WITH MULTIPLE HEADS THE CONTROLS WILL GO LEFT TO RIGHT STARTING WITH HEAD ONE.


Blade Height AdjustmentThe Blade Height is controlled by adjusting the slicing head of the machine up or down. On machines with multiple heads, each head is independently adjustable.To adjust the Blade Height: 1. Loosen the two lock down knobs located on each side of the machine about one turn. 2. Turn the adjustment handle at the top of the machine. Turning clockwise will lower and

counter clockwise will raise the blade. An adjustment scale is located on the left side of the machine to help set height correctly. The scale reads the approximate distance from the conveyor belt to the blade.

3. Once blade height has been set, retighten the two lock down knobs.

Hold-Down Roller Height Adjustment

The hold-down rollers are necessary to help hold and guide the product through the slicing blade. On some products with very sticky top surfaces, it may be necessary to adjust the hold-down rollers up so they do not touch the top of the product, or place a piece of parchment paper on top of the product before slicing. Depending on what series you have the roller may be adjusted by a spring or by a stop block. Please see below for the adjustment for both.To adjust the Roller Height (Stop Block):1. Loosen the adjustment locking knob, then turn the adjustment knob. Turning the knob

clockwise will raise the roller, and turning counter clockwise will lower the roller. The hold-down roller should be adjusted approximately 1/4” to 1/2” lower than the product height.

2. Once the height has been set, retighten the locking knob.

NOTE: THE HOLD-DOWN ROLLERS ARE NOT REQUIRED FOR ALL PRODUCTS, AND CAN ACTUALLY CAUSE PROBLEMS ON CERTAIN PRODUCTS. AN EXAMPLE OF A PRODUCT WHICH WOULDN’T REQUIRE ANY CONTACT WITH THE HOLD-DOWN ROLLERS IS A WARM SPONGE CAKE.

LOCK KNOBS

PART# KNO-18 ASM


To adjust the Roller Height (Spring Tension):1. Remove the guard from the machine.2. Place the guard upside down on a flat surface.3. Move the spring forward or back to adjust the tension placed on the guide roller.4. Different combinations will result in greater or lesser tension. Please see the small picture

below or look at page 27 for a larger diagram to help determine what position to place the spring.

5. Once the height has been set, reinstall the guard on the machine.

Basic MachineOperation

The basic operation of the FOODTOOLS Model CS-8A Series machine is very simple, but the user should be familiar with all the safety and operating instructions before using the machine. Ensure that all setup procedures are followed before beginning the machines operation.1. Ensure that the electrical power line is attached.2. Turn the electrical power switch “ON” position.3. Make sure all the guards are closed.4. Adjust the blade to the desired height.5. Switch the Conveyor Start Button to "ON" and adjust conveyor speed.6. Turn your blade heads to "ON" and set to the correct speed for your product.7. Load product and run, make any adjustments needed to achieve the correct cut.8. Once production is complete press an emergency stop to halt the machine and turn off

power.


SECRETS TO SUCCESSFUL SLICING

After several years of experience, we have found that the secret to successful slicing is TEMPERATURE, TEMPERATURE, TEMPERATURE!There are, essentially, four temperature levels from which to choose:1. DEEP FROZEN: Essentially a uniform temperature throughout the product from prolonged

exposure at stable subzero temperatures for more than two days.2. QUICK FROZEN: The result of overnight freezing, where the core temperature of the

product may be 10-20 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than the outer surface as a result of the freezing process progressing from the outside to the center.

3. PARTIAL THAW: The result of allowing the surface of a deep frozen product to warm to near room temperature prior to slicing. This procedure has been successfully used to slice frosted tortes, cakes and pies where the frostings are too brittle to slice cold.

4. REFRIGERATED: Cooled to a level above which the core ingredients become firm.5. AMBIENT: Rested at a room temperature so the core temperature of the product matches

the room.6. WARM: Any product removed from an oven and allowed to rest for 10 minutes.

Some products will slice over a wide range of temperatures, but some may be more sensitive and require temperature to be carefully controlled to achieve quality slicing. The end goal of product tempering is to achieve the cleanest slice possible at the warmest temperature. A quality sliced product is generally defined as one in which the sharp tips of each slice are apparent, with minimal destruction of the center of the product. Other features are the cleanliness of the cut, through the product core material, the straightness of each vertical cut, and the minimization of damage to the crust, crumb or similar coatings on the top, edges, sides or bottom of the product.

SLICING QUALITYOnce your product is sliced, check that the cuts are clean and sharp, and that the slices are even. See the items below for the adjustments to achieve quality slicing. The CS-8AW Series machines are designed to cut at an ambient or warm temperature. That does not prohibited the use or testing of near frozen products.

Contact FOODTOOLS to discuss your specific applications if you are not satisfied with your slicing results.

CLEANINGThe FOODTOOLS CS-8A Series machines are designed to work in the harsh environment of a bakery. Most areas on the machine can be washed down using a spray bottle. However, it is best to take some care in other areas to avoid premature failure of some critical components. If it is necessary to sanitize the machine, we recommend using a sanitizing solution that will not harm anodized aluminum. Anodize-safe sanitizing solutions are available. Avoid spraying water and/or sanitizing solutions directly on the bearings and any electrical connectors. After washing, it is best to dry the machine thoroughly with an air hose and/or towels.To maintain the appearance of the machine, we highly recommend that the machine be dried using compressed air or towels after wash down. This will prevent water from spotting the machines surfaces.

WARNING: DISCONNECT INPUT ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE CLEANING.

CAUTION: AVOID SPRAYING DIRECTLY INTO ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR, OR INSIDE THE MACHINE’S CABINET.

WARNING: THE BLADE IS VERY SHARP, USE CAUTION WHEN CLEANING OR SERVICING NEAR THE BLADE.

Cleaning the Conveyor BeltThe best method for cleaning the conveyor belt is to use a wet cloth and wipe the belt as it is running at a slow speed. Then use a dry cloth to finish cleaning and to dry the belt. This should be done with the hold down rollers/guards in place. Be very careful that the cloth does not get tangled in any moving parts.

Cleaning the Hold-Down Roller/Guard

AssembliesFirst make sure to turn the main power disconnect switch OFF or completely disconnect the machine from the power outlet. Loosen, but do not remove, the two guard clamp tee knobs. Lift up and back on the whole guard assembly, and pivot it out of the machine.

NOTE: IF THE ROLLERS ARE ADJUSTED HIGH OR THE BLADE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT IS LOW, IT MAY NOT BE POSSIBLE TO LIFT GUARD ASSEMBLY OUT OF THE MACHINE. IF THIS IS THE CASE, YOU WILL NEED TO RAISE THE BLADE ADJUSTMENT AND/OR LOWER THE ROLLER ADJUSTMENT.

CONVEYOR BELT CLEANING


Clean the rollers and guards with a wet cloth and mild cleaning solution. We do not recommend sink washing because the roller assemblies may trap water.

General Machine CleaningWater wash-down or steam cleaning is not recommended because it can shorten the life of the bearings and motors. We recommend cleaning all the machine surfaces with a wet cloth and mild cleanser. Also, using an air gun to blow crumbs off of machine surfaces can be very helpful.

CAUTION: AVOID SPRAYING DIRECTLY AT THE DRIVE MOTORS, BEARINGS AND DRIVE CHAIN. FOLLOW THE LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL AFTER WASH-DOWN.

NOTE: WATER DAMAGE WILL NOT BE COVERED BY FOODTOOLS WARRANTY.

Cleaning Conveyor PulleysThe conveyor belt has a self cleaning stainless steel scraper that should normally keep the underside of the belt and conveyor pulleys clean. Over time there may be some build up on these pulleys. Follow the directions below to clean.

GUARD LOCK KNOB

GUIDE ROLLER CLEANING

PART# KNO-18 ASM


To clean the pulleys:1. Release the conveyor belt tension by loosening the adjustment bolts that align the rear

pulley. Back each bolt off three turns to start.2. Manually pull the belt until the conveyor belt seam is visible.3. Remove the lacing pin from the seam and allow the belt to rest.4. Clean the pulleys with a damp cloth or use a wooden or plastic scraper. Do not use a metal

scraper, it could scratch the finish on the aluminum pulley drum.5. Once the pulleys are clean re thread the belt through the machine and reinstall the lacing

pin.6. By eye shift the belt back into the middle of the machine.7. Retighten the belt by tightening the adjustment bolts. Make sure you adjust the bolts evenly.

Failure to do so will cause the belt to not track in the middle of the machine.8. Run the machine for ten minutes to ensure the belt is tracking correctly

SETUP AND ADJUSTMENT This section will take you through the steps on adjusting some of the major components of

the machine. If more help is required please contact your local FOODTOOLS representative.

Conveyor Belt Tension and Tracking Adjustment

The conveyor belt may periodically need adjustment to keep the belt correctly tensioned and tracking straight on the conveyor pulleys.To adjust the tension:1. Loosen the two belt tension screw locknuts on each side of the conveyor idler roller.2. Adjust each tensioning screw evenly a little bit at a time to keep the roller straight. Correct

tension is achieved when the outside of the conveyor belt is down against the conveyor roller drum and not sagging excessively in the middle.

To adjust the tracking:1. As above loosen the two belt tension screw nuts on the side of the conveyor idler roller.2. Standing from directly behind the pulley facing the belt determine the direction the belt

has moved.3. Unwind the tension screw on the side the belt has moved two turns. I.E. if the belt shifted

right unwind the right tension screw.4. Run the belt at high speed for 30 seconds then re check the alignment. Make adjustment

if necessary.5. Run the belt at high speed for 10 minutes to make sure the position will hold.

Conveyor Belt RemovalTo remove the Conveyor Belt:1. Release the belt tension by loosening the platform alignment screws.2. Move the belt around until you see the stainless steel lacing seam.3. Pull the lacing pin out of the seam to separate the belt.

Bearing LubricationThe main drive blade drive bearing should be greased after every one hundred hours of operation, or after a heavy wash down.To Lubricate Blade Drive Bearing (on Slot Drive Units):1. Remove the four screws that secure the stainless cover to the main drive bearing

assembly.2. Attach a grease gun to the zerk fitting in the drive link block and lubricate with a high

quality food grade grease. NLGI #1 recommended grease, FOODTOOLS part# GRE-01.3. Replace the front cover and run the machine for a minute to distribute the grease.

Conveyor Bearing Lubrication:The conveyor bearings each have a zerk fitting for repacking with grease. These bearings have a large internal reservoir of grease and require lubrication only after every one hundred hours of operation, or after a heavy water wash down. We recommend using a food grade bearing grease due to the proximity to a food area.

Conveyor Chain LubricationUnder normal usage, the drive chain should be oiled on a yearly basis. However, if water wash-down is used, more frequent lubrication will be needed.To lubricate the chain:1. Turn off the main power switch.2. Remove the chain cover.3. Use a penetrating roller chain lubricant on all chain surfaces.

Changing Slicing Blade and Adjusting Tension

Under normal usage and when adjusted correctly you should get months or even years of usage out of your slicing blade. The tension on the blade is very important to the overall operation of the machine. A blade that is too loose could cause uneven cuts or ineffective cutting action. A blade that is too tight can cause premature blade breakage and also put unnecessary stress on the blade tension arms and bearings.To adjust and change the blade:1. Make sure to turn the main power disconnect switch OFF or completely disconnect the

machine from the power outlet.2. Working from the side of the head that faces the front of the motor, loosen the two drive

link rod lock nuts. The nut on the left side loosens by turning clockwise, and the one on the right loosens by turning counter clockwise.

3. Turn the tensioner away from you to loosen the tension on the blade.4. Once the blade tension has been released, remove the two socket head screws that hold the

blade to the tensioning rocker arms and remove the blade.5. Reverse the above steps to install the new blade.6. To adjust the blade tension follow steps 1-3.

CS-8A SLOT DRIVE UPGRADE

The old CS-8A pivot drive assembly has since been replaced with the current slot drive assembly used on all of our CS-8A units. This drive system requires less overall maintenance than the previous version and should be considered if a major head overhaul is required. The following three pages give the part numbers required as well as the installation instructions. For current pricing please contact your local FOODTOOLS rep.


CS-8A NEW STYLE DRIVE RETROFIT INSTRUCTIONS

Begin by removing all the old drive system. This includes both pivot legs, shaft bearings, tension bar, drive linkage and drive rotor assembly. The blade mount block located on the top of the old piviot legs will need to be removed and attached to the new piviot arms. Note the orientation of these blocks in the illustration.

Use the drill fixture provided, to drill two .201 diameter holes in the base plate. See the illustration and locate the two holes that are used to mount the drill fixture. From the bottom of the plate, remove the two screws that hold on the motor mount. Be careful to only remove these two screws or the motor may drop. Mount the drill fixture to the base plate using the two 3/8-16 SHCS screws provided. Then drill the two .201 diameter holes. Then tap the holes to 1/4-20. Reinstall the two lower motor mounting screws.

Working from the side of the head that faces the motor shaft, install the new bearings and pivot arms into the head. Install the pivot arm that has the lower bearing pin stamped “L” on the left side and the one stamped “R” on the right side. Make sure pivot arms move freely in bearing blocks.

Remove the motor and install the motor spacers under the mounting base and bracket.

Install the new drive rotor assembly onto the motor shaft. Grease the drive bearing and plastic drive rotor bearing before installing onto motor shaft. Leave drive rotor loose on motor shaft.

Screw the drive link rod assembly into one side of the pivot arm. The side of the link rod stamped “L” should go on the left side and the one stamped “R” should go on the right. The rod will need to be rotated towards you to install. Once one side is in about one turn in start the other side in.

Once link rod is securely connected, install the blade into the machine. Tension the blade by continuing to rotate the link rod until the blade is flat. Tension one more turn from that point. Then tighten the two lock nuts.

The motor will now need to be aligned front to back and side to side to the drive link block. The pivot arms should have the same amount of side to side motion when rotating the drive rotor and the blade will therefore be centered. Tighten the motor mounting screws and the drive rotor screw.

Slide the guide bearing assembly over the drive link block, and mount it to the base plate. Adjust the guide bearings blocks until they touch the drive link block, then tighten the screws.

Mount the cover plates onto the guide bearing assembly. Be sure to grease main driver bearing before running the machine.
