This durable and easy to clean economy 9" electric meat slicer from Skyfood (model 220E) has an elegant one-piece cast-aluminum body with rounded corners and an attractive anodized finish. With a 1/4-Hp motor this compact slicer would be an excellent tool for a food service business with light to moderate slicing demands. The slicer knife is a stainless steel alloy and has a stain resistant finish with a built-in, top mounted, safeguarded knife sharpener. This sharpener swings out of the way when not in use; pressure of the stones against the blade is variable and user-controlled; the two stones (grinding and honing) can be used against the knife independently or at the same time. The 9" blade spins on a dual bearing hub, ensuring smooth slicing and the knife can easily be removed for cleaning or servicing. The input chute is set at an optimal 30 degree angle for gravity-fed product feeding. Components of this slicer can be easily disassembled without tools, making it an easy model to clean and service. This ETL-listed 200E slicer produces a maximum cut of 1/2-inch thickness and the cutting height and width dimensions are 7-7/8" by 7-1/2", respectively.
