This meat slicer looks like a professional one, we have them here in Belgium in all foodstores to slice meat, cheese, charcuterie etc.... You can tell the amount of cleaning when you bought some cheese that is sliced with such a slicer, when they open a new piece of cheese, and the cheese gets signs of white mold after a few days, then the cleaning was very pour. Regarding the penetrating oil in the beginning for loosing screw, you can try the DIY version of penetrating oil. This contains 50% Aceton, mixed with 50% Automatic Transmission oil/Power steering oil (red colored oil). The Aceton has a very good capillary effect, and Transmission oil/Power steering oil contains lots of cleaning additives, thix mix makes it one of the best penetrating oils you can get. You mix those in little oil handpumps (the ones that look like the oil pressure light in your car :-) ) , a good shake before applying and you are good to go.
a hint for the hex key issue you were having at 22:57... try a torx bit, iirc t20 is the one that usually works. this goes for everyone else that's ever struggled with a hex key rounding off screws - torx will get it out.
thanks for posting! I'm working on a Berkel right now, but power is not making it through the control board/pcb/transformer. Motor runs when voltage applied directly... any suggestions? thanks!
@thelonelandlord unless it's the latest, these all run off 120V mains. The power switch is a known problem. Connect a lead to Neutral - near the cord, and work your way towards the power switch and motor if you keep getting 120V then reverse, connect to 120V Line (black) and probe the neutrals all the way to the motor. - of course all tests should be done with the blade removed.
So I have an old fleet wood 12 ef … it worked when I tested it and I cut a half of stick of pepperoni through it.. when I got home I took off the blade/guard, and sharpening mechanism and now when I try to turn it on nothing happens. Where would you start?
This is off topic, but would you be willing to do a networking video. I have very little knowledge about networks and I saw on LinkedIn that you have your A+ certification. I would greatly appreciate it!
Or just IT topics that a beginner biomedical should know. I know in one of your previous vids you talked about how you think junior biomed’s should get their CompTIA A+ cert. I have no knowledge of IT. I guess I might know some of the hard ware questions but that’s just from my electronic classes. As far as networks and software I’m totally in a funk for those I feel.

@@BetterBiomedChannelthanks - it’s an older unit. I was confused why it has a pcb at all? The switch is wired in low voltage to what must be a relay.

@@shaneboyd8788 Always check the fuse and power switch
Disregard… I had the pin for the blade to tight.. soon as I loosened up that back pin it turned on 🤦♂️

Is there a finished video? Would like to see the finished slicer.
I've got a old fleetwood AS 275 slicer I'm working on and can't figure how they got it together.
interesting to watch. The table, it's not looking to stable. Distracting. But, the suspense!!
How long have been a biomed
20 years

How can you get a stuck shaft out
Which shaft? The linear slides for the thickness or the slides for the slice tray?
