meat slicer problem

[bluesvoda]

Hej
I just bought a brand new food slicer.
It leaves marks in the meat.
What can be the problem?

Do you mean band saw, might be me but it looks frozen, if so that's a normal look. If I'm totally wrong please discard this reply.

Never saw that before. It looks frozen to me, too.
A lot of things slice cleaner if they're ALMOST frozen but not actually frozen.

 

[bluesvoda]

No, this is just dry meat, not frozen.
Its like prosciutto.
The blade is just round circle.
And the meat slicer looks like this.

Perfectly normal on par frozen meat with a serrated blade.

If your slicing dried meat and there's no moisture present I would expect that type of result. Slice up some spam and see how it works.......

Hmm, I tried with it with a kind of fresh salami of some sort....
Also not ok.

looks like the blade has a wobble to it.

 

[boykjo]

Bent blade or shaft maybe? Does it look like its running true. Rpm's low? You said it was new so I assume it is not used.

How does the blade mount? Are there alignment posts or screw? Maybe those are loose?
