American Slicing Machine Company Parts

[Tod Gibson]

I just bought an American meat slicer. How can I tell what model it is?
The name plate just gives motor data.

Great restoration.

My personal preference would have been a different color. But that purple is an accurate color. I've seen some with a purple.

I just got one. It was going to be thrown out on a moving job. I plan on restoring and painting a red maybe.
How did you ground it?
Any special way to clean the self sharpening mechanism?
Mine turns on and seems to function fine. I was thinking of using evaporust to clean. Or maybe having it media blasted.
My motor has a little cap for oil I assume.

Any advice?

I have a machine just like you have pictured. I just completely disassembled it (every screw). Cleaning and sandblasting all metal parts. I have gone through motor and have it working fine. Use a fine machine oil in caps above bearings on each end of motor, 3 in 1 oil works fine. Sharping stone can be removed shaft and all for cleaning. I need two parts. The part that slides the meat against the cutting blade and I could use a new sharpening stone if anyone knows where to find them.

My Dad has this machine but we discovered that the gear that control the thickness of the slicing is broken (pic included). Does anyone have any ideas on where I can get a replacement? We are trying to restore this together to use it. Thank you so much!
