Great find! I think?!
-
I had another great marketplace find. Picked up this 827a Berkel 12” slicer for 100 bucks. Needs a little TLC but I think it is going to be great. This is my first slicer so cleaning and lubricating it will probably teach me a lot about it. It started right up and belt and motor seem solid. It is missing the slice deflector which I am debating if I even need. Also the tray gets a little stiff as it approaches the blade. It is getting much better after I added some mineral oil to the rod that it slides on. Hope this is OK to do. Could not think of another way to lubricate the bushings. Also there is an oil hole at the end of the rod which I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do with. I may need a new sharpening stone and could use new feet. But for $100 I don’t mind investing a little.
It has a Somewhat oxidized look to it, may be from something they tried to clean it with previously. Wondering if anybody has any tricks to shine it up. Was thinking maybe barkeepers friend but wasn’t sure.
Surg I spend a lot of time looking for one of these. There was an old Globe slicer that I missed by a half hour. The hunt continues. Great score!!!

ND Mike Yeah I was looking for a while. I’ve seen a few globes in the $500 range. The other day I just woke up and something told me to check and it had posted only a few hours earlier. Luckily it was close to my parents house so I had my dad grab it for me.

That seems to be a pretty high end unit. Not familiar with it however.

processhead yeah it looks legit and is in my town. I just dont know if I should grab it. I’m a home guy and my little 25 dollar slicer sucks. I just don’t know if something that big is worth the hassle.

I would think you could resell it if its not to your liking.

samspade I say go for it if it’s still available.

I cant believe this. I offered the guy 300 for a 5000 slicer. He said ok. Went over to pick it up and it didnt spin the blade but the controls lit up. I’ve got a guy, so I took it. Got it home and saw the carriage was not set to zero. Closed it and everything works. Now to clean sanitize and lubricate. Got to buy a cart cause it weighs 100lbs or more.

samspade Wow, find another one like that, send it my way. Great Find!

All degreased, re-oiled, sanitized, and sharpened. Also got a new set of shoes. What better trial run than a freshly smoked slab of home cured bacon.
